Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

BIP Solutions Limited procured legal services for Project Trellis, using the Government Commercial Agency’s Legal Panel for Government, Lot 3: Finance and High Risk / Innovation. The requirement is described as legal support for the project; the stated service category is legal services. Delivery is in Sheffield, Yorkshire and the Humber. This is a specialist legal-services engagement connected with finance and high-risk or innovative matters, rather than a general legal-services requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Ashurst Perkins Coie UK LLP on 5 October 2026. The awarded value is £32,000. The contract period runs from 7 October to 30 November 2026. The tender closed on 6 October 2026. The procurement used the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6360 Legal Panel for Government, Lot 3, covering Finance and High Risk / Innovation; the procurement method is recorded as not disclosed. No separate evaluation criteria or lot breakdown are stated.

This award shows BIP Solutions Limited’s demand for specialist legal advice for a project involving finance and high-risk or innovative matters, sourced through the Government Commercial Agency’s legal panel. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate relevant legal expertise in these subject areas and the ability to provide focused project support. The selected supplier is a large law firm, indicating that established legal-services capacity was represented in the competition. The engagement is project-specific rather than a broad, ongoing legal-services arrangement, so relevant experience and the ability to address the project’s particular legal issues would be central to competing when this buyer next procures comparable support.
