## Summary

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) procured recruitment services under its Workforce Solutions requirement, described as recruitment-related services from Alexander Mann Solutions (CPV 79600000). The scope is identified at a broad service level, with delivery locations spanning the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. This is a service requirement rather than a purchase of goods or works. The buyer is CPS, based in London. The procurement indicates that small and medium-sized enterprises may be suitable to deliver the service, while voluntary, community and social enterprises are not identified as suitable. The selected provider, Alexander Mann, is recorded as a large supplier.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Alexander Mann through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. CPS selected the supplier on 2 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £12,530,675. The contract runs from 2 September 2026 to 5 August 2031. The procurement record gives an earlier tender submission deadline of 1 September 2026. The requirement is presented as a single workforce solutions service, rather than being divided into separately described lots. The available process information identifies the framework call-off route but does not set out the evaluation criteria or detailed eligibility requirements. The award is recorded as active.

For recruitment providers, this award demonstrates CPS demand for recruitment-related services delivered across a broad geographic footprint, extending beyond the UK to Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and other international locations. A credible competitor for a future CPS requirement would need the capacity to support recruitment across these markets and to deliver a broad workforce solutions service, rather than a narrowly local offering. The buyer identified SMEs as potentially suitable, so scale alone is not a stated barrier; however, the selected supplier is a large organisation, indicating that suppliers would need to demonstrate dependable delivery capability for a substantial, multi-year public-sector requirement. The route used was a framework call-off, making relevant framework access and experience in delivering recruitment services through that route commercially pertinent.
