It falls under the industry category of legal services, with the contract primarily targeted for delivery in various regions across England, including the North East, North West, and London. The process has progressed to the award stage, with the most recent award active since 15 September 2024, and the documentation published on 18 August 2025. The procurement employed a direct award method, offering a three-year contract period from 26 September 2024 to 25 September 2027, with a total contract value of £50,000.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for business growth for legal service providers, particularly those equipped to handle public sector requirements. The successful supplier, Browne Jacobson LLP, a large-scale firm, highlights the competitive landscape.
