NHS CPP National Clinical Staffing Framework

Please note this framework will end in February 2021 and will be superseded by the Workforce Alliance contracts.

The NHS Collaborative Procurement Partnership National Clinical Staffing Framework provides the NHS and public sector organisations with access to a wide range of temporary and permanent roles.

The framework provides access to a range of roles that are compliant with NHS Improvement pay and charge rate caps. All suppliers have been audited to ensure ability to comply with NHS pre-employment check standards.

In addition to this, CPP has a Framework in place for International Nursing Recruitment (please see the More Information section on the right hand side).

The NHS Collaborative Procurement Partnership National Clinical Staffing Framework Agreement:

The NHS Collaborative Procurement Partnership's National Clinical Staffing framework provides access to temporary and permanent staff for a wide range of clinical roles, including: 

• Medical and Dental Staff
  
  
• Nursing and Midwifery
  
  
• Other clinical staff, including Allied Health Professionals and Health Science Staff.
  
  

The Clinical Staffing framework has three lots:

Lot 1 - Employment Business – Under this lot agencies supply temporary workers and pay the worker.

Lot 2 - Employment Agency – Agencies supply either temporary or permanent workers to the trust, but the trust pays the worker, with the agency receiving a commission fee.

Lot 3 - Neutral Vendor - The supplier acts as a neutral party. They do not supply their own staff, but instead manage the supply chain.

A list of suppliers can be found in the 'supporting information' section on the right hand side of the page.
