This will be through a phased approach, with an initial focus on hard to fill requirements for specialist interim contractors with digital, cyber, legacy technology or technology change skills and expertise. The remaining phasing of the model will be reliant on input from the market and customers, and will depend on the scope, scale and complexity of the solution. Active market engagement is integral to our understanding of the current marketplace landscape and dynamics in terms of availability of quality temporary labour resource and pricing pressures. This engagement will include investigating all components involved in the provision of the service from payrolling, security / vetting, placement and direct hire through to a fit for purpose technology-enabled platform. To be successful, the new contractual vehicle needs to be able to meet current and future challenges from our diverse customer base and particular requirements, including the need for specialist technical resources to drive digital transformation. There is a desire to understand how the market is evolving in terms of trends, emergence of new technologies and innovation with regards to commercial models and methodologies to deliver a fit for purpose contracting vehicle. Crown Commercial Service also need to understand the specific challenges facing the provision of specialist contingent labour resources. Obtaining insight into projected market evolvement going forward is key, including but not limited to, the emergences of technology and offerings which broaden the scope of services The Crown Commercial Service believe the scope of temporary workers will include the following sub categories, however, we are looking for input from the market to help shape our forward looking vision so would be open to feedback proposing alternative approaches which expand or modify the projected scope, including disaggregation of the services (payrolling, security and vetting). Current envisaged areas of scope: ● Administration and clerical workers ● Operational and support workers ● Interim managers ● Digital/IT specialists ● Digital, cyber, legacy technology or technology change skills and expertise ● Senior civil service level managers ● Specialist contractors CCS is also considering how this could expand to other areas, including: ● Statement of Works (SOW) ● the ability to direct hire ● talent pooling functionality ● creating an eco-system for temporary workers to track performance and easily transition workers between contracting bodies. It is likely that the new commercial arrangement will be split into specific solutions, though the structure of these are yet to be determined.
