Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority is procuring specialist business analysis consultancy services to support its AML Supervisory Reform Programme. The appointed delivery partner is intended to help plan, scope and design the programme, which aims to deliver a fully operational Single Professional Service Supervision function. The work is for the FCA, based at 12 Endeavour Square, London, and concerns the design and development of its anti-money laundering supervisory operating model. This is a public-sector regulatory transformation requirement rather than a routine technology, staffing or general management contract. It is relevant to consultancies with experience in financial services regulation, anti-money laundering supervision, operating-model design, programme planning and delivery of complex organisational change.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a competitive selective procedure, with the award made under a framework. One service requirement was awarded to Baringa Partners LLP on 24 July 2026. The award is valued at £14,916,666.67 excluding VAT and £17,900,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and runs from 13 August 2026 to 12 August 2027, with extensions permitted for up to a further three years; the maximum stated extent is 9 August 2030. The contract is active and above the relevant threshold. The selected supplier is responsible for the AML Delivery Partner service, evaluated through the framework’s competitive process.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates substantial demand from the FCA for specialist consultancy supporting anti-money laundering supervisory reform. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to combine business analysis with programme planning, requirements scoping and operating-model design, and show that it can support a complex regulatory organisation through delivery rather than provide only strategic advice. Relevant experience would include financial services regulation, AML supervision, designing professional or specialist service functions, and managing transformation outputs through defined milestones. The requirement favours a delivery partner with sufficient organisational capacity for a large, multi-year engagement, strong analytical and stakeholder-management capability, and experience turning reform plans into an operational service.
