Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority commissioned a Voice of the Supplier Survey 2026. The service covers designing and delivering a supplier survey, analysing the responses and presenting the outcome at the FCA’s Supplier Collaboration Forum. It is a professional service in survey analysis, with an associated information technology consulting and support element. The buyer is the Financial Conduct Authority, a UK central government public authority based at 12 Endeavour Square, London. The work is therefore centred on supporting the FCA’s supplier engagement and collaboration activity in London. This requirement would suit organisations that combine supplier research and feedback-gathering with robust analysis and the ability to turn findings into material suitable for presentation to a supplier forum.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. The award was made to State of Flux Ltd on 27 April 2026 for the single lot. The active contract was signed on 27 April 2026 and runs from 27 April 2026 to 30 September 2026. Its value is £35,900 excluding VAT, or £43,080 including VAT. The selected supplier is providing services classified as survey analysis and information technology consulting, software development, internet and support. The stated outcome is a Voice of the Supplier Survey for presentation at the FCA’s Supplier Collaboration Forum. The published information records the tender and lot as complete and the award and contract as active.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the requirement indicates that the FCA uses external expertise to gather structured feedback from its suppliers, analyse the results and present them in a formal collaboration setting. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable capability in supplier or stakeholder surveys, questionnaire design, response management, qualitative and quantitative analysis, and clear reporting for senior or cross-organisational audiences. It would also need to understand how survey activity can be supported by information technology and related consulting services. State of Flux Ltd is recorded as an SME, showing that this type of specialist service can be delivered by a smaller provider rather than only a large consultancy.
