Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Variation to Advisory Services Agreement" was conducted by the Bank of England, with the procurement stage now complete. The tender, classified under the industry category of construction consultancy services, was managed through a direct procurement method, specifically a single tender action below the threshold. The contract covered services in England, with notable involvement in areas such as London. Key dates include the award publication on 6th October 2025 and the active contract period from 3rd July 2025 to 30th November 2025. The entire tender process reflects a completed transaction ensuring the Bank of England met its advisory needs timely and efficiently.
