UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) commissioned business and management consultancy support for its anti-money laundering (AML) reform programme. The work is titled AML DTI Strategy Support and is intended to help progress AML reform, including DUIE. It is a services requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction work. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement was organised by the FCA, a public authority based in London. The requirement was handled as a single lot, covering the consultancy support as one package. The awarded work sits within an existing framework arrangement, so it is relevant to consultancies able to provide strategic support on financial crime or regulatory reform and experienced in working through public-sector framework routes.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to The Berkeley Partnership LLP. The FCA used a selective procedure to make an award under a framework; the call-off was non-competitive. The contract was awarded on 21 October 2026, with delivery running from 23 October to 22 December 2026. The awarded value is £127,600 excluding VAT (£153,120 including VAT). There was one lot, and the recorded award is active. The stated requirement is support to progress anti-money laundering reform, including DUIE. No evaluation criteria are recorded, so the basis on which competing suppliers were assessed cannot be summarised. The process is linked to a framework agreement, and the award is for consultancy services rather than a longer-term supply or works contract.

For consultancies considering similar FCA work, this award shows demand for focused strategic support on anti-money laundering reform, including DUIE, delivered as a discrete consultancy assignment. A credible competitor would need relevant capability in AML and financial-services regulation, the ability to advise on reform strategy, and experience translating regulatory objectives into practical support for the FCA. The selected supplier is an SME, demonstrating that this type of requirement can be delivered by a specialist consultancy rather than only a large firm. Suppliers would also need to be able to compete through the FCA’s framework route and mobilise for a short, defined assignment. The award provides a concrete example of the FCA buying advisory capacity for its AML reform programme; it does not establish a broader requirement beyond that area or reveal specific accreditation requirements.
