## Summary

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) procured access to a market intelligence platform. This is a technology service centred on providing access to a platform, with the associated IT services, software, internet and support that enable its use. The service is delivered for the FCA in the United Kingdom, with the buyer based at Endeavour Square in London. The requirement is relevant to businesses supplying market intelligence platforms, subscription-based information services or related technology and support. It may also suit providers that combine software access with ongoing technical assistance. The buyer is a UK public authority and the procurement concerns services rather than goods, construction or physical delivery.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. Morningstar UK Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 21 September 2026. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £158,115 excluding VAT, or £189,738 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract remains active for the stated period, and the recorded procurement category is services. The FCA is the buying organisation and Morningstar UK Ltd is the awarded supplier.

This award confirms the FCA’s demand for a market intelligence platform delivered as a managed technology service. Businesses considering comparable work should be able to provide reliable access to a professional intelligence platform, supported by software, internet services and technical assistance. A credible competitor would need the operational capacity to serve a UK public authority, maintain service availability and support users throughout the contract, rather than supplying a one-off product. The selected supplier is a large organisation, indicating that established providers with substantial platform, information and support capability are well placed. Specialist market intelligence firms and technology providers with proven public-sector service delivery should monitor this buyer’s requirement.
