Summary of the contracting process

The London Pensions Fund Authority appointed a provider of project management services for the consolidation of pension funds into LPFA. The work covers coordinating the transfer of pension funds and completing all transfers by the project’s long-stop date. It is a professional services requirement in the pensions and pension-fund consultancy sector, classified under CPV 66523000. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, for LPFA, whose address is 169 Union Street, London. Procurement Services – Lifecycle, part of Commercial Services Kent Limited, managed the procurement. The requirement is focused on project management for a complex pension-fund consolidation rather than the supply of physical goods, construction or general administrative support.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a competitive call-off under a framework using a selective procedure. It was divided into one completed lot. The contract was awarded to HYMANS ROBERTSON LLP on 16 July 2026 for £179,050 excluding VAT, or £214,860 including VAT. The award standstill period ended on 28 July 2026. The contract was signed on 21 August 2026 and runs from 21 August 2026 to 31 December 2027. The related requirement set a long-stop date of 31 December 2027 for all pension transfers to be completed. The award and contract are active, and the procurement was above the relevant threshold.

This award shows sustained public-sector demand for specialist project management within pension-fund consolidation. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to understand pension fund transfers and be able to manage a complex consolidation programme for a public-sector pension authority. Relevant capability includes coordinating multiple transfer workstreams, maintaining delivery against a fixed completion point, and providing pension fund consultancy alongside programme management. The successful supplier was a large professional services firm, indicating that the buyer valued the capacity to support a substantial, high-value assignment. Businesses considering this market should also note that the work was obtained through a competitive framework call-off, so framework access and the ability to compete through that route are commercially important.
