## Summary

The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons is in the planning stage for a tender titled "HR Online Service," which aims to secure a service providing HR and employment law advice, alongside various practical HR tools and pay benchmarking solutions. This service will support multiple teams within the Houses of Parliament, located in London, United Kingdom, falling under the services category. The planning stage includes a soft market test from 22 August 2025 to 1 September 2025, with a formal tender expected by mid-September 2025. The total contract value is anticipated to be around £153,000, with procurement procedures aligning with the UKPGA legal framework.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in human resources software and legal advisory services, particularly for those that can offer data-driven HR solutions and comprehensive pay benchmarking. Companies equipped to provide a responsive, up-to-date HR service that caters to both public and private sector needs are well-placed to benefit. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), in particular, are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process explicitly allows for their suitability. The contract period is expected to run from November 2025 to March 2028, with potential for renewal, providing a stable, long-term business opportunity.

## Notice

The House of Commons and the House of Lords are seeking a HR Online Service that can provide responsive, up-to-date HR and employment law advice, along with practical tools such as model policies, templates, and case law insights.

The service will primarily serve four teams within the House of Commons and the House of Lords: People Management, Pay and Reward, Members's and Members' Staff Services (MMSST), and Lords HR team, supporting employees of both Houses, Members of Parliament, and their staff.
