## Summary

Anchor Hanover Group commissioned financial management consultancy to test a specified version of its Long Term Financial Plan model. The model supports the organisation’s financial planning, regulatory compliance and strategic decisions, and also feeds its financial resilience stress testing. It is predominantly spreadsheet-based, combining data from multiple sources with assumptions and calculation methods. The testing covers spreadsheet calculations, structured data transformations, including Power Query using M code, and semantic modelling. The work is delivered across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West.

The procurement is complete and awarded to KPMG LLP; the contract is active and was signed on 23 September 2026. The below-threshold procurement was for one lot, with a gross contract value of £36,993.60. The contract period runs from 1 October to 31 December 2026. The stated purpose and scope are testing a single specified version of Anchor Hanover’s financial planning model. The procurement record does not give an evaluation method or award criteria, so the basis on which KPMG was selected cannot be described further.

This award shows demand at Anchor Hanover for independent testing of a complex, spreadsheet-led financial planning model used for regulatory compliance, strategic decisions and financial resilience assessment. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to test spreadsheet calculations, trace structured transformations such as Power Query M code, and assess semantic modelling alongside the integration of multiple data sources, assumptions and calculation methods. Suppliers should be able to work across the specified model version and deliver testing that supports confidence in financial planning and stress testing. The awarded supplier was a large professional services firm, indicating that this requirement was met by a provider with the capability to take on specialist financial management consultancy work.

## Notice

The supplier will perform testing procedures on a single specified version of the Model. The purpose of the Model is to assist Anchor in maintaining a Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP) to support financial planning, regulatory compliance, and strategic decision making. The model is predominantly spreadsheet-based and integrates multiple data sources, assumptions, and calculation methodologies. The model incorporates a range of build approaches and technical components, including spreadsheet-based calculations, structured data transformations (e.g. Power Query using M code), and semantic modelling elements. The LTFP also underpins the organisation's stress testing framework, forming an input into assessments of financial resilience and compliance with regulatory expectations.
