Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Reporting Council Limited bought professional services from Three Plus Consulting Ltd. The requirement is business and management consultancy and related services, covering professional support to the regulator. The work is delivered in London and is relevant to consultancies providing business advice, management consultancy or associated professional services. The buyer is a UK public authority based in London. The procurement was organised as a single requirement rather than separate service lots, so suppliers would need to provide the required professional services as one coherent offering. This opportunity is most relevant to established consultancy businesses able to support a central-government-type public authority with business and management advice and related professional expertise.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Financial Reporting Council signed the contract with Three Plus Consulting Ltd on 31 March 2026. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a maximum extension date of 31 December 2027. Its stated value is £24,999 excluding tax and £206,400 including tax. The award is active and the contract is active. It was a below-threshold procurement using a procedure recorded as unknown, with one completed lot. The arrangement includes options and renewal for services of the same nature, subject to cost. The awarded supplier is Three Plus Consulting Ltd.

This award demonstrates demand from the Financial Reporting Council for business and management consultancy and related professional services. A credible competitor for the same requirement would need a broad consultancy capability, with the capacity to provide professional services to a UK public authority and to deliver a coherent service rather than a narrowly isolated task. Experience of advising regulated organisations or supporting public-sector governance, reporting, management or business improvement would help demonstrate relevance, although the award data does not identify a specific accreditation or technical specialism. The selected supplier is a large consultancy, indicating that scale and the ability to resource ongoing professional support are commercially relevant when this buyer next requires services of the same nature.
