Suppliers must provide transparent rate structures,, ensure compliance with IR35 and other employment regulations, and integrate with internal workforce planning processes.
A second Lot - Lot 2. General Business Temps - has now been cancelled and no contracts will be awarded related to this lot

Dialogue, clarification, or negotiation may be used to refine proposals prior to award. The contract will be awarded on the basis of the Most Advantageous Tender.
