Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured legal advisory services for its human resources function. The work supports the Trust’s internal employment-related decisions and is categorised as legal services (CPV 79100000). Delivery is for the Trust in Bradford, West Yorkshire, at the Trust’s Duckworth Lane site. This is a professional services requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. The relevant supplier profile is a legal practice able to advise an NHS organisation on human resources matters, interpret employment-related issues and provide practical advice to support internal decision-making. The requirement is specific to general legal advisory support for the Trust’s human resources activities.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust selected DAC Beachcroft LLP on 24 July 2026. The award value is £10,000, and the contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The requirement was procured through a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 30 June 2026 at 12 noon. The contract is for services and the tender was marked complete. The recorded outcome identifies one supplier and one award. The opportunity was assessed through the framework call-off process; the published information does not set out separate quality, price or other scoring criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from an NHS trust for general legal advice supporting human resources decisions, delivered through a framework call-off route. It is most relevant to established legal practices with a dedicated employment or NHS advisory capability, able to give clear, timely advice to internal decision-makers and handle a range of human resources matters rather than a single dispute. The selected supplier, DAC Beachcroft LLP, is recorded as a large organisation, while the requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. A credible future competitor would therefore need strong organisational capacity, relevant public-sector legal experience and access to advisers familiar with NHS employment contexts.
