Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concerns the provision of legal advisers for the London North Eastern Railway Limited (LNER) and is managed by the Department for Transport (DfTc). The contract, valued at £15,760, falls under the business services sector, specifically law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security. The procurement method specified is a direct single tender action below threshold, with the awarding completed on 17th March 2020. The contract period is set from 17th March 2021 to 16th December 2021, and the services are to be delivered to locations within London.

This tender represents an opportunity for legal firms, particularly those with expertise in transportation law and public sector procurement, to engage with government clients. While the awarded contract has concluded, similar future opportunities may arise as public organisations continue to seek legal consultancy for their projects. Firms that can demonstrate a strong capability to handle legal matters in the railway sector or those with established relationships with transport authorities will be well-suited to compete.
