Summary of the contracting process

HM Treasury procured technical financial advisory services to support the design of financing mechanisms. The requirement is classified as financial consultancy services and falls within the services category. Delivery is in London, at the department’s central London location. The work concerns financial advice linked to developing financing mechanisms, rather than the provision of finance itself. The contracting authority is HM Treasury, based at 1 Horse Guards Road, London. The selected supplier is PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that organisations of those types were considered capable of undertaking this advisory requirement. It is a single service requirement rather than a procurement divided into separately described lots.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 1 May 2026 at 23:59. HM Treasury awarded the contract to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on 22 May 2026. The awarded value is £400,000, with the contract running from 18 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. The procurement’s upper estimated value was also £400,000. The award is active and covers the same one-year financial advisory requirement. The published process identifies the procurement method and framework call-off route, but does not set out a separate weighting or scoring basis. The outcome therefore records a completed framework-based selection of one supplier for the full requirement.

This award demonstrates established demand from HM Treasury for specialist financial consultancy supporting the design of financing mechanisms. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable technical financial advisory capability, with experience translating policy or investment objectives into workable financing structures. Relevant firms should be able to analyse funding models, advise on their design and communicate recommendations clearly to a central government client. The successful supplier was a large professional services firm, suggesting that the requirement can suit organisations with substantial advisory capacity, although the procurement expressly recognised suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Businesses building a public-sector financial advisory practice can use this requirement as a benchmark for the capability, delivery scale and framework-based route that HM Treasury has used for this type of work.
