Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority has concluded the procurement process titled "ServiceNow Re-tender - 2025", aimed at procuring license management software packages. The contract, awarded in the services industry category, focuses on the provision of ServiceNow licenses, support, and professional services to support case management functions. The procurement method used was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. This process, constrained by a tender period ending on 30th June 2025, saw its contract awarded to ADVANCE SOLUTIONS CORP LTD on 26th September 2025. Located in London, with the official postal code E20 1JN, the contracting process reached the award stage with a total award value amounting to £7,853,547.20. The contract is set to commence on 31st December 2025 and will run until 30th December 2029.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in software license management and those capable of providing comprehensive support and professional services in IT case management systems. Although the procurement was based on a selective method, businesses with the capacity to offer similar services could find potential growth opportunities by aligning with framework agreements that accommodate call-offs in the future. While the contract may not suit SMEs and VCSEs, large-scale enterprises capable of delivering expansive services within the specified timeframe and budget could leverage such opportunities to expand their portfolio in the public procurement sector.
