Summary of the contracting process

Anchor Hanover Group procured tax consultancy services under a retainer covering VAT, employment taxes, corporation tax and Stamp Duty Land Tax. The service also includes an initial face-to-face workshop to understand Anchor’s strategy, objectives and current tax priorities, followed by twice-yearly update meetings. The work is delivered across the United Kingdom. This is a professional services requirement for a tax adviser able to provide both specialist advice across several tax areas and ongoing support to a substantial public-sector buyer. The arrangement is focused on practical advisory input and regular engagement, rather than a one-off tax review or narrowly defined piece of consultancy.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold procedure; the published method detail records the specific method as unknown. There was one completed lot. Deloitte LLP was awarded the contract, which was signed on 12 May 2026. The contract runs from 12 May 2026 to 11 May 2029, with an option for two one-year extensions, giving a maximum end date of 11 May 2031. Its value is £60,000 excluding VAT and £72,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The award covers tax consultancy services for the United Kingdom. The procurement was evaluated as a service requirement, with the award information identifying Deloitte as the selected supplier.

This procurement indicates demand from Anchor Hanover Group for an established tax advisory capability spanning VAT, employment taxes, corporation tax and Stamp Duty Land Tax. A credible future competitor would need advisers able to cover all four areas, understand a client’s strategy and priorities quickly, and turn that understanding into practical, continuing advice. The requirement also favours a supplier that can provide senior engagement through an initial face-to-face workshop and maintain a structured relationship through twice-yearly update meetings. Firms considering similar work should therefore assess whether they have sufficient breadth across tax disciplines, the capacity to provide a retainer service, and the experience and communication skills needed to advise a complex public-sector organisation over a sustained period.
