Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency initiated a tender for the provision of external legal advisory services, valued at £500,000. The procurement process took place under a selective method, specifically through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period spans from 1 October 2021 to 31 March 2022, and the tender period concluded on 30 September 2021. The award for this contract was made on 5 November 2021, and the awarded supplier is Gowlings WLG (UK) LLP, based in London.

This contract presents significant opportunities for law firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), seeking to expand their services in public sector legal work. Given the nature of the services required, firms specialised in legal advisory practices would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar tenders. With the increasing demand for legal services from public organisations, businesses can leverage such contracts to enhance their market presence and establish long-term relationships within the public sector.
