Summary of the contracting process

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) bought procurement consultancy services. The requirement was for a single supplier to provide specific procurement consultancy within the timeframe allocated for the work. The services were for the MHRA and delivery was in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and Acquire Consultant Solutions was selected as the single supplier. The MHRA used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and runs from 24 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £60,000 excluding VAT (£72,000 including VAT).

This award shows that the MHRA buys focused procurement consultancy through a direct, below-threshold route and may require one supplier to deliver specific support within an allocated timeframe. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement should be able to provide relevant procurement consultancy and demonstrate capacity to deliver the defined work within the buyer’s timeframe. The appointed supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this requirement was delivered by a supplier of that scale.
