Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) procured analytics consultancy for its Digital Unified Intelligence Environment (DUIE). The work is centred on developing a risk-scoring proof of concept to identify, prioritise and support responses to financial crime activity, particularly the disruption of scam networks. This is a technology and data consultancy service covering IT consulting, software development, internet and support services. Delivery was based in London, at the FCA’s offices in Endeavour Square, E20 1JN. The requirement concerns the design and development of an analytical capability rather than the supply of an off-the-shelf product. It would suit organisations able to combine financial-crime analysis, data science, risk modelling and software development in a regulated financial-services environment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender closed on 19 July 2025 at 12:00. Two active awards were made to Deloitte LLP: one valued at £560,188.80 and dated 7 October 2026, and a second valued at £746,918.40 and dated 7 October 2026. Both awards cover the contract period from 2 February 2026 to 31 July 2026. The tender’s stated estimated value was £746,918.40, with a minimum estimated value of £560,188.80. The FCA identified the requirement as a services procurement and marked it as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published information does not set out separate lots or detailed evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates a substantial FCA requirement for specialist analytics consultancy focused on scam networks and financial crime disruption. A credible future competitor would need to show experience of translating financial-crime intelligence into practical risk-scoring models, prioritisation tools and response workflows. Relevant capability is likely to include data engineering, statistical or machine-learning techniques, proof-of-concept development, software integration and clear presentation of analytical results to regulatory users. Suppliers should also be able to work with sensitive financial information, understand financial-services regulation and provide robust assurance around data quality, explainability, security and operational use. The framework call-off route and the scale of the selected supplier indicate that the buyer values established delivery capacity and the ability to provide an integrated consultancy and technology team rather than a narrowly defined software component.
