Preliminary Market Consultation: Provision of Recruitment services for Temporary Agency staff to UCC

Tender description

University College Cork (UCC) is undertaking a market sounding exercise for the Provision of Recruitment services for Temporary Agency staff to UCC. This questionnaire seeks to gather market insights to assist with the tender specification and tender process. Responses to this PMC are for information only and will not form part of any evaluation. UCC intends to run a competitive procurement process early in 2026 for the Provision of Recruitment Services for Temporary Agency staff. UCC intends to establish a framework agreement for these services to meet short-term staffing needs across a range of categories, including administrative, professional, technical, and specialist roles. This framework will support continuity of operations during periods of absence, seasonal demand, or project-based requirements, ensuring rapid access to qualified personnel with minimal onboarding. The agreement will set clear service standards, pricing structures, and compliance obligations, while promoting sustainability, social value, and fair work practices.
