## Summary

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory has recently completed a procurement process for a Recruitment Advertising Agreement, primarily classified under advertising services. This contract, valued at £40,000, was initiated as a single tender action due to previous competition failure. The agreement is effective from 26th April 2021 to 25th October 2021, following a tender period that concluded on 14th April 2021. The delivery of services is to take place in the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), looking to establish or expand their presence in the advertising services sector. Companies that specialise in recruitment advertising, digital marketing, and related services would be well-positioned to engage with such contracts, which highlight the importance of transparency in public procurement processes.
