Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed a selective procurement process for the ODYSSEY Legal Support services, resulting in an award to Mills & Reeve LLP. The procurement was carried out via the RM6179 Legal Services Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Framework, with the contract period set from 14 July 2024 to 14 July 2025. This procurement, categorised under 'Legal advisory services,' has a total value of £180,000 and is geographically focused on the South West region of the United Kingdom. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 13 July 2024 and the contract award date on 16 August 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies within the legal services sector, particularly those with experience in public sector legal support. Although the awarded contract was selective and targeted large firms like Mills & Reeve LLP, businesses equipped to provide high-quality legal advisory services could position themselves for similar future opportunities through CCS frameworks. The Ministry of Defence’s continued reliance on specialised legal expertise for its programmes suggests a consistent demand for competent firms in this sector.
