Summary of the contracting process

Advantage South West, based in Yeovil, UK, is initiating a procurement process for a multi-Lot Legal Services Framework 2022 primarily within the legal services category. This framework aims to provide legal advice across two key areas: New Build Development and Treasury & Governance. The tender process is classified as selective and is being executed under a restricted procedure, compliant with Section 7 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The tender period concluded on 31st January 2022, while the contract is set to commence on 1st June 2022 and will last until 31st May 2028.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for legal service providers, particularly those offering specialisation in construction and governance-related legal advisory services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this an advantageous avenue to expand their client base through participation in this framework, which will include multiple suppliers. Given the varied Lots available, firms with expertise in new builds and treasury-related legal advice will be well-positioned to compete successfully for contract awards.
