Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Halton Housing Trust (HHT) has initiated a tender for a "Legal Services Framework," aimed at establishing a framework of multiple service providers to deliver legal services across various categories, including Property, Human Resources and Employment, Corporate and Funding, and Housing Management. The tender process concluded on 24 January 2018, with a total estimated value of approximately £400,000 (ex-VAT) over a four-year period beginning on 1 April 2018. Legal services will primarily be required at HHT's main office in Widnes, England, and potentially at other operational locations throughout the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for law firms, particularly those specialising in the outlined areas, to engage with HHT as reliable service providers. Both small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and larger firms are suitable to compete, especially those with the capacity to handle various legal matters that HHT may require. Successful bidders will be integrated into a framework that does not guarantee contract awards but opens doors to providing essential legal services to a well-regarded housing trust, fostering potential business growth in the legal sector.
