Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) procured DevSecOps support for product teams within its Data Collections Product Group (DCPG). The requirement covers development and operations support for technology product teams, including software development, IT consulting, internet and related support services. The work is based in London, at or around the FCA’s office in Endeavour Square, E20 1JN. This is a services requirement for a supplier able to support product delivery through integrated development, security and operations practices. The procurement concerns an organisational technology support capability rather than a discrete goods supply or construction project, and is relevant to established IT services, DevOps and software delivery providers.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 2 July 2025 at 12:00 BST, and the contract was awarded on 9 January 2026. SOPRA STERIA LIMITED - FCA was selected, with an awarded value of £13,665,028.18. The contract period runs from 22 July 2026 to 21 July 2030. The stated procurement value ranges from £13,665,028.18 to £29,875,337.30: the lower figure covers the initial term, while the higher figure includes optional extensions and potential headroom during the contract term. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs.

For a supplier assessing future work with the FCA, this award demonstrates substantial, multi-year demand for DevSecOps support across a product group handling data collections. A credible competitor would need to combine software development, operational support and security practices, and work effectively with product teams rather than deliver isolated technical projects. Experience providing managed or embedded DevOps services in a regulated financial-services environment would be commercially relevant, as would the organisational capacity to support a large framework call-off over several years. The stated unsuitability for SMEs and VCSEs indicates that the buyer looked towards larger, established technology services providers, or suitably scaled framework partners, rather than small standalone specialists.
