Digital Services Framework Agreement

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is pleased to invite expressions of interest (EOI) to participate in preliminary market consultations, in accordance with Regulation 40 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The FCA is looking for Supplier expertise and knowledge to refine requirements for the provision of services for Application Development, Application Maintenance and Modern Application Development including transformation services. The FCA currently has a Framework Agreement that is used to place call-off contracts for Application Development and Maintenance Services, as well as augmented services aligned to Modern Application Development. The FCA is seeking to contract by establishing a Framework Agreement with multiple partners who have demonstrable capability and expertise, that will support continued delivery of the technology change portfolio, maintain or improve the stability and performance of services; while helping the FCA in its ongoing DevOps, agile and transformation journey. The FCA is seeking to create a 4-year multiple Supplier Framework Agreement. Suppliers successfully appointed to the Framework Agreement will be engaged to provide specific Services through use of call-off contracts. The Lots and full scope of the Services will be subject to preliminary market consultation. The purpose of this PIN is to identify Suppliers who may be interested in partaking in supplier events, responding to an RFI and submitting a proposal for the requirement upon commencement of a procurement.
