## Summary

The procurement process was undertaken by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) for a project titled "DHSC: FGO: Contingent labour CHS extension". This contract falls under the industry category of Business and Management Consultancy Services and pertains to the location of London, United Kingdom. The procurement stage currently stands at the Award phase, with Castlefield Recruitment Limited selected as the supplier. The contract is valued at £140,514 and covers the period from 1st August 2025 to 2nd February 2026. The procurement method used was selective, specifically conducted as a call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender period ending on 31st July 2025.

This contract represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in business and management consultancy services, particularly those adept at supporting organisational transformations. The procurement process being a selective call-off from a framework suggests businesses already established within such frameworks, or those looking to specialise in public sector consultancy, would have been well-suited to compete. The DHSC's focus on contingent labour extension for transformation planning further implies opportunities for consultancies with experience in healthcare sector transformations. Although this particular award is complete, understanding the criteria and structure can guide businesses in positioning themselves for future opportunities of a similar nature.
