## Summary

The Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust has initiated a public procurement process under a complete tender stage for outsourcing payroll management services. The procurement, identified as "Payroll Service," falls under the services industry category with a CPV classification of payroll management services, specific to locations across various UK regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. This contract was awarded through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a competitive call, directly under a framework agreement, reflecting a procurement that falls outside standard directive applications. The contract, valued at £990,000, was signed on 9th July 2026, with ELFS Business Services securing the award.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) particularly involved in payroll and personnel management services. Given its classification and direct awarding process, businesses that are part of framework agreements or are capable of providing extensive payroll outsourcing across multiple UK regions can find promising growth avenues. The nature of the contract, being a direct award under a framework without a competitive call, highlights potential advantages for organisations like ELFS Business Services, capable of delivering specialised financial and payroll management solutions on a large scale, positioning them advantageously for future similar engagements.
