Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "Strategic Workforce Planning - Consultancy" has been completed by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in London, United Kingdom. This falls under the industry category of Business and Management Consultancy Services, identified by the CPV code 79410000. The process utilised a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period started on 5th May 2026 and ended on 12th June 2026, with the award officially active from 20th April 2026. The total contract value amounted to £102,600.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in business and management consultancy services, particularly those capable of strategic workforce planning. It offers a substantial contract value and engaging in such a partnership with a prominent regulatory body like the FCA can enhance a firm's prestige and market presence. However, the procurement process was not open to SMEs or VCSEs, directing it primarily towards larger consultancy firms like PA CONSULTING SERVICES LTD, which was awarded the contract. Companies experienced in providing comprehensive consultancy services with robust frameworks in place would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar future opportunities.
