Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), based in London at 12 Endeavour Square, recently completed an award for the renewal of a data visualisation tool. This contract is specific to the IT software package industry and involves the provision of Tableau licensing for data visualisation. The tender was conducted through a selective procurement method, specifically as a call-off from the KCS Software Products and Associated Services Framework (Y23065). With a total contract value of £2,805,220.62, the award was made to SOFTCAT LTD - FCA on 1st October 2024, and the contract will run from 10th October 2024 until 9th October 2027.

This tender offers significant business opportunities for IT firms specialising in software packages, particularly those with expertise in data visualisation tools. Although the procurement process is complete and the contract awarded, businesses with relevant capabilities may seek future opportunities through established framework agreements like the one used by the FCA. Companies equipped to provide comprehensive software services and support might find similar frameworks a lucrative and strategic means of engaging with public sector clients. While this specific contract does not explicitly favour SMEs or VCSEs, larger organisations in the IT domain could find comparable opportunities promising for future growth and development.
