UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited procured specialist business and management consultancy services through its supply chain consultancy framework. The assignment covers five areas: feasibility and risk assessment; commercial due diligence and market assessment; financial analysis and investment evaluation; separation planning and operating model design; and strategic alignment, value creation and stakeholder support. It is a single consultancy requirement for the Post Office, with the work associated with its London-based organisation. The service is intended to support commercial decision-making, investment evaluation, organisational separation and operating-model development, alongside broader strategic and stakeholder activity. This is consultancy rather than the supply of physical goods, construction or operational facilities management, making it relevant to firms with a broad corporate strategy, finance, commercial and transformation offer.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 28 August 2026 through a selective procedure as a direct call-off under an existing framework. PA CONSULTING SERVICES LIMITED was selected for the single requirement. The awarded value is £377,000 excluding VAT, or £452,400 including VAT. The contract period runs from 10 September 2026 to 30 October 2026, with signature scheduled by 10 September 2026. The call-off was above the relevant threshold and was not competitive at this stage. The award covers business and management consultancy services under CPV 79410000. The procurement used one lot, and the published outcome records the award as active while the overall tender is complete.

This award shows demand from Post Office Limited for high-end, integrated consultancy across commercial assessment, finance, strategy and organisational change. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to combine feasibility and risk analysis with commercial due diligence, market assessment, financial modelling and investment evaluation. It would also need practical capability in separation planning and operating-model design, rather than offering strategy in isolation. Experience of aligning strategic choices with value creation and supporting stakeholders would be important, as would the capacity to bring these disciplines together for a time-limited assignment. Firms already working through the relevant consultancy framework, with a large multidisciplinary team and evidence of delivering complex corporate or supply-chain decisions, would be best placed when this requirement next reaches the market.
