Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority is buying architectural services to support its S&A team in delivering the architectural requirements of its Change Portfolio. The work is based in London, with the delivery address in the E20 1JN area. The stated scope is support for the team’s architectural requirements; no specific building projects or design outputs are identified in the procurement description.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Airwalk Consulting Reply Ltd. The award was made on 30 June 2026, following a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated procurement value and awarded contract value are both £9 million. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. Responses were due by 1 June 2026 at 17:00. The procurement was classified as a service and was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The available information does not set out evaluation criteria or further eligibility requirements.

This award shows that the FCA buys architectural support for its Change Portfolio through framework call-offs, with work centred in London and a contract at substantial scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the capability to support an in-house team across the architectural needs of a change portfolio, rather than only deliver a single, defined design project. The selected supplier is a large consultancy, indicating that capacity to provide sustained support may matter. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so the requirement was not limited to large firms; a smaller practice may be well placed if it can demonstrate relevant architectural expertise and sufficient capacity for portfolio-level work. The award provides no detail about required professional accreditations or specific experience credentials.
