## Summary

UK Export Finance bought risk transfer professional services, classified as financial consultancy. The requirement was described as a professional services contract, with no further breakdown of the work. The procurement comprised one lot, and the recorded service delivery location is the United Kingdom. UK Export Finance, a central government organisation, was the buyer. This is a specialist advisory requirement connected with risk transfer, rather than a purchase of physical goods or construction work. The supplier selected was WILLIAM LEDGER CONSULTANCY LTD, a small business based in Andover. The procurement record does not describe particular deliverables, operational activities or a more precise delivery location, so the supported scope is limited to risk transfer professional services for UK Export Finance.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. UK Export Finance used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, for its single lot. WILLIAM LEDGER CONSULTANCY LTD was selected. The award is active and the contract is also active. The contract was signed on 28 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 27 March 2027. Its value is £51,000 excluding VAT and £61,200 including VAT. The award record does not set out an evaluation method or award criteria; the route was a direct award without competition. The supplier and contract period are therefore the recorded outcome of the process, rather than a comparison of competing tenders.

For a consultancy considering similar work for UK Export Finance, this award demonstrates demand for focused risk transfer professional services, with financial consultancy as the relevant capability. The selected supplier was a small business, showing that this requirement was delivered by an SME rather than a large corporate provider. A credible competitor would need to show relevant expertise in risk transfer and the ability to provide specialist consultancy to a central government finance organisation. The purchasing route used here was a direct award below threshold without competition, so the award does not demonstrate how UK Export Finance would assess competing tenders or what formal technical, financial or accreditation thresholds it might require in a future procurement. The published scope supports positioning around risk transfer advisory services, not broader unrelated financial consultancy.
