Summary of the contracting process

Flintshire County Council bought treasury management and leasing advisory services. The work is financial advice and support relating to the council’s treasury management and leasing; the procurement describes treasury management advisory services as its quality criterion. Delivery is in Flintshire, Wales. The requirement was procured as one lot, covering the service as a whole. The contract was awarded to Arlingclose Limited, a financial advisory supplier based in Stratford-upon-Avon. This is a council requirement rather than a purchase of financial products or insurance: the requested work is advisory services for the authority.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Flintshire County Council used an open, below-threshold competition. Arlingclose Limited was selected and signed the contract on 16 October 2026. The contract value is £44,400 excluding VAT (£53,280 including VAT). The contract runs from 19 October 2026 to 9 September 2029, with an option to extend by two years, to a maximum end date of 9 September 2031. One lot was evaluated on quality, weighted at 70%, and price, weighted at 30%. The tender submission deadline was 30 June 2026, and the deadline for enquiries was 23 June 2026. The authority marked the procurement complete after award.

This award shows demand from Flintshire County Council for specialist treasury management and leasing advice, delivered as a single advisory-services contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the expertise and capacity to advise a local authority on treasury management, alongside relevant leasing advisory capability. The council weighted the quality of the treasury management advisory offer more heavily than price, so suppliers would need to demonstrate a strong, relevant service proposition as well as competitive pricing. Arlingclose Limited, an SME, won this competition, showing that a specialist firm could secure the work. The requirement is suitable for SMEs, which may make it relevant to smaller advisory firms with public-sector experience and the ability to support a council over a multi-year contract.
