## Summary

The contract titled "CSP25712 - Agency Staff," commissioned by UK Research and Innovation, has been concluded under a direct procurement method due to the absence of competition, as detailed in the legislation 2023/54. This procurement process, categorised under services and specifically "Supply services of personnel including temporary staff," involves the location in the United Kingdom and falls under public authority - central government. The process has reached the award stage with the contract awarded to The One Group Ltd. The overall procurement period begins on 1 January 2026 and concludes on 31 May 2026, having been signed on 18 December 2025.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in personnel supply services, particularly those able to provide agency staff efficiently and effectively. Given that it involves agency staff supply, companies specialising in temporary staffing solutions stand to benefit considerably. Large-scale organisations with robust recruitment and staff management services, like The One Group Ltd, which was awarded the contract, are well-positioned to compete in such procurement exercises. The absence of competition in this instance highlights potential for businesses capable of meeting specific, possibly niche requirements set by public authority units.
