UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Mid Suffolk District Council procured treasury management services to support the management of its public funds and financial activities. The requirement is a professional financial service rather than the supply of physical goods or construction works. The council is based in Ipswich and the services are for its district council operations in Suffolk. The procurement was structured as a single requirement, covering treasury services under CPV 66600000. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would include specialist treasury management providers, financial advisory firms and other organisations with experience supporting local authority finance functions. The selected supplier, Arlingclose Limited, is a UK-based small and medium-sized enterprise specialising in treasury advice and related services for public sector clients.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold tender process. One supplier was selected: Arlingclose Limited. The contract was signed on 25 November 2025 and runs from 1 December 2025 to 30 November 2028. It has a gross value of £180,000. The council holds renewal options of 12 months plus a further 12 months, with the maximum possible contract end date of 30 November 2030. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement used one completed lot. The published outcome identifies treasury services as the awarded requirement. The available procurement record does not set out an award date or detailed evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates an established requirement for specialist treasury management support from Mid Suffolk District Council, at a scale suited to an experienced niche provider rather than a general business services supplier. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable expertise in local authority treasury management, including financial advice, cash and investment management, borrowing, risk management and compliance with public sector governance requirements. Experience advising councils and understanding the regulatory and prudential framework would strengthen a supplier’s position. The winning supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large financial institution. Suppliers should also be capable of delivering a professional advisory service over a multi-year relationship and responding through a below-threshold tender route.
