Summary of the contracting process

The FCA (Financial Conduct Authority), based in London, awarded a contract for the "Cloud Resilience Programme Resource" as part of its initiative to enhance cloud resilience. Categorised under IT services, this opportunity fell within the selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement process recently reached the award stage, with the contract awarded to Airwalk Consulting Reply Ltd, an SME. Key dates in this process included the end of the tender period on 2nd June 2025, the start of the contract on 9th July 2025, and it is scheduled to conclude by 31st March 2026. The contract drew an award value of £450,000, amidst a project budget set between £500,000 and £550,000.

This contract offers ample opportunities for consulting firms specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in cloud infrastructure and resilience. While the contract was ultimately awarded to an SME, it underscores that similar tenders could provide growth avenues for businesses of varying scales, particularly those with a strategic alignment towards digital infrastructure solutions.
