Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England procured business and management consultancy services to support a Skilled Person Review. The requirement was for a partner to provide resources for the review, rather than for a general consultancy programme. The work is delivered in London. The buying organisation is the Bank of England, based at Threadneedle Street in London. The procurement concerns professional review and advisory capability for a regulated financial institution, with delivery focused on supplying suitable specialist resources. It was categorised as business and management consultancy services. The selected provider is Avyse Partners Limited, a London-based consultancy. The requirement was procured through the Bank of England’s Skilled Person Framework.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids closed at 12:00 on 11 May 2026, and the contract was awarded to Avyse Partners Limited on 11 May 2026. The awarded contract value is £142,950. The contract period runs from 8 June 2026 to 7 June 2027. The evaluation basis was the framework call-off process. The award is active and the contract covers the single requirement for Skilled Person Review resource in London. The opportunity was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The Bank of England is the buyer.

This award demonstrates demand from the Bank of England for specialist consultancy resource to support a Skilled Person Review, delivered through an established framework route. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide suitably experienced business and management consultants who can supply review resource to a financial-sector institution. The successful supplier profile is a large consultancy, suggesting the work may suit firms with the capacity to assemble and manage an appropriately skilled team rather than small or voluntary-sector providers. Relevant businesses should be able to operate within a framework call-off, understand regulated financial services environments, and provide dependable professional resources for a formal review. Experience delivering complex advisory or review assignments for institutional clients would strengthen their position when comparable demand returns.
