## Summary

The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is undertaking a procurement process for a master vendor contract to supply both temporary and permanent personnel services, supervised by BIP Solutions Limited as the buying organisation. The contract, titled "Supply of Temporary and Permanent Personnel Services (Master Vendor)", falls under the recruitment services category, with the location specified as London, United Kingdom. The procurement method being used is a restricted procedure, suitable for contracts above a certain threshold. The contracting process, currently at the tender stage, has important dates including the tender period ending on 13th February 2025 and the contract period slated to start on 15th August 2025, ending on 13th August 2027.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for companies specialising in recruitment services to offer comprehensive personnel sourcing solutions for FSCS, including support for the People Team to ensure effective recruitment and retention strategies. It is open to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), offering them the possibility to compete on a major two-year contract. The significant contract value of £56,000,000 makes it an attractive endeavour for businesses capable of supporting a diversified recruitment framework, excluding executive-level roles.

## Notice

In September 2024, FSCS published a Prior Information Notice in relation to procurement of master vendor contracts under two Lots, (i) Claims handler and (ii) Non-claims handler. The two Lots covering both permanent and contractor roles across the Scheme. Following a Supplier Briefing event, FSCS decided to procure all its requirements for temporary and permanent personnel under a single Master Vendor contract. FSCS already has a specialist recruitment framework for executive and non-executive roles. The new master vendor contract will be in addition to this arrangement and will therefore not include executive and non-executive roles. The services will include supporting a FSCS's People Team to attract, recruit and retain candidates with the right blend of skills, qualifications, experience, knowledge, and attitude into the right roles and in the right place to deliver on the Scheme's strategy. The services must include the smooth transition from our existing master vendor arrangement.
