Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "Legal Services for Synergy Programme Support (Direct Award)," was conducted by the Department for Work and Pensions. This process, classified under the industry category of legal services, utilised a selective procurement method in the form of a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement stage has reached completion, with the award being active as of 30th April 2026. The contract is set to commence on 1st May 2026 and will conclude on 30th September 2027. The main location for the service delivery is in the United Kingdom, particularly EC1A 4HT, London. The total contract value is set at £643,543.50.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses experienced in providing expert legal services, particularly those capable of supporting governmental programmes like the Synergy Programme. With the Department for Work and Pensions as the buying entity and a major supplier like DLA Piper UK LLP involved, businesses that can meet the rigorous demands of government contracts and deliver high-quality legal services stand to benefit. This opportunity is less suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) due to the scale and requirements involved. Nonetheless, it represents a lucrative growth avenue for larger entities in the legal industry.
