This process falls under the industry category of Legal Services, specifically classified as CPV code 79100000. The contracting process has reached the Award stage, with a contract awarded to Dac Beachcroft LLP. The procurement was concluded as a direct award under the Public Sector Legal Services RM6240 framework, using a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. Key dates include the tender period ending on 14th April 2026, and the contract period running from 15th April 2026 to 24th March 2028.
