Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nations and Regions Investments Limited, based in Sheffield, procured legal services for the SWIF and Devolved Nations Cluster Allocation. The requirement falls within the legal-services category and relates to the buyer’s activity in Yorkshire and the Humber. It is a service contract supporting the allocation described in the procurement title, rather than the purchase of goods or construction works. The buyer is part of the public-sector investment landscape, so relevant businesses are legal practices able to advise an institutional client on this type of allocation. The appointed provider is Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP, whose registered address is in London. The work is associated with the buyer’s Sheffield operations and delivery area in Yorkshire and the Humber.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Bids were due by 16 June 2026, and the award was made on that date. Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP was selected for a contract valued at £57,050. The contract period runs from 17 June 2026 to 31 July 2026. The procurement used the bank’s standard financial instruction, and the requirement was treated as a services procurement. The published title describes a SWIF and Devolved Nations Cluster Allocation. The award is active. The procurement was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that the buyer treated this as a requirement for an established specialist provider.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible competitor would need a strong legal-services practice with the capacity to support a cluster-based allocation for an institutional public-sector investment buyer. The selected supplier is a large law firm, and the procurement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. This points to the importance of organisational scale, established legal resources and the ability to manage a defined allocation programme rather than a small standalone advisory instruction. Firms with experience advising public-sector or investment organisations, and with the infrastructure to deliver work connected with Yorkshire and the Humber and the devolved-nations context, would be best placed to assess similar demand from this buyer.
