Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority commissioned IT services to support agile technology project delivery. The requirement covers consulting, software development, internet and support services, with the emphasis on helping technology projects progress through agile delivery methods. Work is based in London, at or associated with the FCA’s offices at 12 Endeavour Square, E20 1JN. The buying organisation is the Financial Conduct Authority, a UK financial regulator. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist technology consultancy rather than only by a large systems integrator. The opportunity is relevant to firms providing agile delivery teams, technology project management, software development, digital consultancy and related technical support for public-sector or regulated environments.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender closed on 23 June 2026 at noon, and the award was made on 6 July 2026. Public Digital Limited was selected as supplier for an awarded value of £252,096. The contract runs from 13 July 2026 to 12 January 2027. The original estimated procurement range was £200,000 to £300,000. The requirement was treated as a services contract and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, despite the appointed supplier being an SME. The award is active, and the recorded contract period matches the award period.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined demand for external agile technology delivery support within a financial regulator. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to combine agile project delivery with practical technology consulting, software development, internet-related services and ongoing technical support. Experience of coordinating delivery across multidisciplinary technology teams would be relevant, as would the ability to provide a coherent service rather than a single narrow technical specialism. Suppliers should be able to work in a regulated public-sector setting, understand governance and assurance expectations, and show how they manage delivery, prioritisation, risks, dependencies and technical outcomes. A small specialist consultancy has secured the work, so focused expertise and delivery capability may be more important than corporate scale.
