Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process initiated by FAIR4ALL FINANCE LIMITED, based in London, UK, was for the position of Financial Capability Lead. The procurement was in the services category, specifically targeting financial consultancy and research consultancy. The process was classified under an open competition method, initiated below threshold for public undertakings. The bid submission deadline was 4th July 2025, with the contract period planned from 1st August 2025 to 31st January 2026. However, the tender process was eventually cancelled, with the final status date recorded as 18th July 2025.

This opportunity was initially designed to offer substantial growth potential for businesses specializing in financial consultancy services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) were particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria. Companies with expertise in financial capability and education, stakeholder management, and those proficient in understanding consumer insights would have found this tender advantageous. Despite its cancellation, similar future opportunities may offer impactful roles for companies equipped to enhance financial education and handle complex stakeholder engagements.
