Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority bought eLearning Developer services from Malverde Limited. The requirement is for the provision of services to develop eLearning, classified under business and management consultancy services. Work is delivered in the United Kingdom, for the FCA’s operations in London. The procurement covered one completed lot and formed a call-off from an existing framework. The service sits within the FCA’s organisational learning and development needs, although the published description does not provide a more detailed breakdown of the learning content, platforms, subject areas or delivery model. This opportunity is therefore most relevant to suppliers providing eLearning development services, particularly those able to operate within a business consultancy or professional services framework environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The FCA used a selective, competitive below-threshold award under a framework. The award was made to Malverde Limited on 15 July 2026. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and runs from 18 August 2026 to 31 December 2026, with an option to extend for a further three months to 31 March 2027; the extension value is included. The contract value is £133,681.19 excluding VAT, or £160,417.43 including VAT. One supplier was awarded the single lot. The process was evaluated through the framework route, but the release does not publish separate technical, quality or price weightings. The contract is recorded as active.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined FCA requirement for specialist eLearning development delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for similar work would need demonstrable capability in designing and developing eLearning, together with the capacity to deliver a professional consultancy service for a central public authority. Experience of framework-based procurement and the ability to work with regulated-sector or business-focused clients would strengthen its position, although those specific credentials were not stated as mandatory requirements here. The awarded scale indicates a substantial, focused service engagement rather than a simple supply of off-the-shelf training materials. Suppliers should be able to support the FCA’s learning needs in the United Kingdom and present a clear, reliable delivery approach.
