This initiative falls under the services industry category and is aimed to cover a variety of public sector grades and bands across both clinical and non-clinical roles. The process is currently in the planning stage, with market engagement activities scheduled for suppliers and customers. These activities will be conducted in Liverpool, UK, with key discussions on scope, structure, and terms anticipated on 5th January 2026. The procurement method includes a framework agreement and intends to address delivery regions including the UK, Guernsey, Isle of Man, and several British Overseas Territories. The planned contract is set to commence on 3rd February 2027 and end on 2nd February 2031. This tender represents a substantial opportunity, with a planned gross value of £7.2 billion, designed to foster business growth for SMEs and VCSE organisations. The procurement process is expected to invite competitive bids across multiple lots, enabling service providers proficient in recruitment services to deliver both specialised roles and managed services. Businesses operating within the recruitment sector, particularly those with expertise in delivering temporary and permanent staffing solutions, stand a strong chance to thrive and expand their operational footprint across the outlined delivery regions. This opportunity is underpinned by the possibility of engaging in structured frameworks that support the provision of both clinical and non-clinical services in the public sector. ## Notice Crown Commercial Service, as the Authority, intends to put in place an agreement for the provision of temporary, permanent, and fixed term staff of all clinical and non clinical public sector grades and bands. A high level lotting structure being proposed is: Lots for the provision of clinical roles. Lots for the provision of non clinical roles.
