## Summary

British Business Bank plc procured evaluation consultancy services to provide independent assurance and expert guidance on the valuation framework for the British Growth Partnership and its implementation. The requirement covers specialist review and advice on how the valuation framework operates, supporting confidence in its application. The work is delivered for the bank in the United Kingdom. It falls within the broader category of independent assurance, including reviews and investigations, and is classified under CPV 79419000. This is a professional services requirement for firms with expertise in valuation, assurance and the assessment of financial or investment-related frameworks, rather than a goods supply or construction project.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a further competition under the GCA Audit and Assurance Services Two Framework, Lot 4, for other independent assurance. It used a selective call-off procedure from the framework. The tender submission deadline was 27 March 2026, and the contract was awarded on 28 August 2026 to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The awarded contract value is £480,000. The contract runs from 28 August 2026 to 27 August 2029. The requirement was evaluated as a professional services competition for independent assurance and valuation expertise. The contract is active and the selected supplier is PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

This procurement indicates demand from British Business Bank plc for established, independent advisers able to scrutinise a valuation framework and guide its practical implementation. Credible competitors would need strong valuation capability alongside assurance, review and investigation experience, with the authority to provide objective challenge and expert advice to a public financial institution. Experience assessing complex methodologies, controls, assumptions and their application would be relevant, as would the ability to produce clear, defensible findings for senior stakeholders. The route used was a framework call-off through a specialist independent-assurance lot, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be able to operate within, or build relationships through, public-sector assurance frameworks and demonstrate capacity for a substantial multi-year advisory engagement.
