## Summary

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has completed its strategic review and design tender for a quality assurance approach under the "Business and management consultancy services" category. Located in London, UK, this procedure was conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement utilised a selective method and progressed to its award stage, where the contract was granted on 15th December 2025, with an official publication date of 30th December 2025. The consultancy contract, valued at £210,000, will span from 5th January 2026 to 31st March 2026.

This consultancy tender represents a potent opportunity for growth to firms specialising in business management and consultancy services. While the procurement was selective, businesses that operate under existing framework agreements might find similar future opportunities beneficial. Given the focus on a comprehensive quality assurance review, firms with substantial experience in strategic audits and quality enhancements are ideal contenders for similar tenders. Although not explicitly designed for small and medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community, and social enterprises, the insights gained and networks built through involvement in such prestigious projects could pave the way for substantial expansion in consultancy capabilities and professional reputation.
