UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority procured procurement consultancy services to support its purchasing activity. The requirement is consultancy rather than the supply of goods or construction work, and is classified as procurement consultancy (CPV 79418000). The awarded service is associated with delivery in the United Kingdom. The FCA is the buying organisation, and the work was arranged as a single lot. This is a specialist professional-services requirement for firms advising on public-sector procurement processes, rather than a general management consultancy assignment. Its framework-based route indicates that the FCA selected a provider from an existing framework, through a competitive process.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Constellia Public Limited on 21 September 2026. The award value is £10 million excluding VAT (£12 million including VAT), with the published value including the extension option. The contract period runs from 12 October 2026 to 11 October 2029, with an option to extend for a further year, to 11 October 2030. The procedure was selective, with the award made competitively under a framework agreement. One lot was awarded. The available award information identifies the consultancy service but does not set out detailed evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements.

For firms competing for comparable FCA work in future, this award demonstrates demand for procurement consultancy delivered through a framework and selected through competition. A credible supplier would need to show practical expertise in procurement processes and the capacity to support a substantial, multi-year consultancy engagement for a financial regulator. Experience serving public authorities and working within framework call-off competitions would be commercially relevant. The selected provider is a large company, indicating that the engagement was placed with a supplier able to operate at significant scale; smaller consultancies may need to demonstrate sufficient delivery capacity, potentially through a consortium or subcontracting arrangement. The award establishes the type of advisory service the FCA bought, but does not identify specific professional accreditations, named specialist disciplines or technical qualification thresholds.
