This opportunity is a re-opening of Standing List of Approved Temporary Agency Staff Providers. The initial Tender process was undertaken from September to November 2015.

There is no limit to the number of Providers that will be selected to join the List. Each successful Provider will be ranked according to their Tender evaluation score.
