## Summary

The FCA procured a training platform from Pluralsight to meet its staff training needs while reducing costs. This is an IT services requirement, covering software, internet and support services rather than physical goods or construction. The service is delivered for the FCA in London, at its premises in Endeavour Square, E20 1JN. The named requirement is focused on providing access to a training platform and the associated service needed to support organisational learning. The procurement falls within the services category and is relevant to platform providers, technology suppliers and managed service businesses able to support enterprise training requirements for a UK financial regulator. The supplier recorded for the procurement is Softcat Ltd – FCA.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open competition. The tender submission deadline was 1 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The estimated procurement value was between £40,000 and £45,000, while the award value was £35,000. The contract was awarded to Softcat Ltd – FCA on 25 March 2026. The contract period runs from 25 March 2026 to 24 March 2027. Evaluation resulted in an active award to one supplier. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that the route and buyer requirements were aimed at suppliers operating through the relevant framework.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from the FCA for enterprise access to a Pluralsight training platform through a framework call-off. Businesses seeking comparable work would need an established route to supply the platform, strong capability in IT service delivery and software support, and the operational capacity to serve a financial regulator. The requirement also indicates that the buyer values a training service that can meet organisational learning needs while controlling costs. Suppliers with experience supporting structured workforce training, managing platform access and providing dependable customer or technical support would be well placed to build credibility for a future requirement of this type. Framework eligibility and the ability to deliver through a selective call-off route would be important.
