Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority recently completed a procurement process for an Employee Assistance Programme, aimed at providing counselling services to its employees. This tender was classified under the services category, specifically focusing on counselling services (CPV code: 85312320). The procurement method was selective, with the contract valued at £70,000, of which £52,896 was awarded to the selected supplier, Health Assured Ltd. The services commenced on 30th September 2022 and are set to continue until 17th November 2024. The procurement process had a tender period that concluded on 31st May 2022.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the counselling and employee assistance sectors to expand their service offerings. Companies with expertise in providing mental health support services, particularly those that can deliver comprehensive counselling solutions, may find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. As the procurement was limited to selective bids, smaller and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may particularly benefit from leveraging specialised skills to address the needs of organisations like the Financial Conduct Authority.
