## Summary

HM Treasury commissioned services to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence in the Government Finance Function. The work is intended to build understanding of practical AI use cases, automate tasks and improve efficiency across government finance activities. It falls within software development services and is delivered in London, including the area around HM Treasury’s Horse Guards Road offices. This is a professional services and technology requirement rather than a purchase of off-the-shelf goods or construction works. The buyer is HM Treasury, the UK government department responsible for managing public finances. The requirement is relevant to consultancies, technology firms and software development providers working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, process improvement and public-sector finance.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 6 August 2026 to BearingPoint Ltd. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 30 July 2026 at 23:59. The awarded value is £280,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2027. HM Treasury identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active. There is one supplier and one requirement, with the procurement classified as services and the relevant service classification being software development. The recorded process provides no separate award weighting or scoring basis.

This award is useful market evidence for firms developing practical artificial intelligence applications for government finance. A credible future competitor would need to translate finance-function activities into viable AI use cases, explain those use cases clearly to government stakeholders, and turn them into software or related technical solutions. The requirement also points to demand for automation that produces demonstrable efficiency gains, rather than AI experimentation without an operational purpose. Relevant suppliers include software developers, AI consultancies and transformation teams able to combine technical delivery with an understanding of public-sector finance processes. Smaller firms were considered suitable, indicating that a focused SME with the necessary delivery capability could be relevant to comparable work through the same framework route.
