Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has completed the procurement process for the provision of legal services and advice to support its response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The contract, titled "C16695 Legal Services," was awarded to DLA Piper UK LLP for a total value of £30,000. This tender was conducted through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract period spanning from 19 October 2020 to 31 March 2021. The procurement was located in Leeds, UK, and the tender period ended on 16 October 2020.

This opportunity can foster significant growth for firms specialising in legal services, particularly those experienced in public health law or crisis management. With the contract already awarded, businesses like DLA Piper that possess the necessary legal expertise and capacity to handle high-stakes government work would be well suited to compete in similar future tenders. Engaging with governmental bodies, especially in the healthcare sector, may provide pathways for small and medium-sized enterprises to establish partnerships and expand their service offerings.
