UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The financial regulator FCA (Financial Conduct Authority), located in London, has procured services under the title "C3633 Early Careers Marketing & Attraction." This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on business services such as law, marketing, consulting, and recruitment. The procurement process involved a direct method, categorised as "Below threshold - without competition," with a legal basis linked to the UK legislation 2023/54. The contract was awarded to Bright Network UK Ltd, an SME also based in London, and was signed on 13th August 2025. Officially active from 15th September 2025 to 15th September 2026, this procurement process is in its complete stage with a total contract value of £36,888.00.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses in the marketing and consulting sectors, particularly those that specialise in services that enhance the attractiveness of early career pathways. The inclusion of an SME supplier highlights the potential for smaller enterprises to engage with central government on projects that do not exceed the competitive threshold, thereby offering a chance for growth and increased visibility in the public sector market. Companies that excel in strategic marketing and talent attraction would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders, capitalising on their specialised skills to add value to public authorities.
