Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process focused on upgrading its internal intranet system. This initiative, titled "FCA Intranet Upgrade - Request for Information (RFI)," falls under the services category and is aimed at enhancing the user-friendliness and interactivity of their current intranet, which is set to reach its end of life in December 2026. The procurement process is valued at £400,000 to £500,000 and will take place in the UK, specifically coordinated from the FCA's headquarters in London. As part of their market engagement, interested suppliers are encouraged to participate in a request for information (RFI) by 5th September 2025, using the Atamis Supplier Portal to register and engage with the opportunity.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software development and information systems, particularly those offering programming services for application software. SMEs are specifically noted as suitable candidates, providing a pathway for smaller firms to engage with a central government authority. Participation in this tender could enable businesses to form strategic partnerships with an influential regulatory body, potentially expanding their portfolio and showcasing their capabilities in developing collaborative digital workspaces. Companies looking to establish or expand their presence within the UK government sector, or those interested in long-term digital transformation projects, will find this procurement particularly compelling.
