Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

British Patient Capital Ltd commissioned legal services for Project Yellow, a project associated with its investment and commercial activities. The requirement covered finance and high-risk or innovation-related legal work, delivered for the buyer in Sheffield and the wider Yorkshire and the Humber area. The procurement used the Government Commercial Agency RM6360 Legal Panel, specifically Lot 3 for Finance and High Risk / Innovation. The service falls within the legal services category, CPV 79100000. The buyer is British Patient Capital Ltd, based at Steel City House, West Street, Sheffield. The work was procured as a service requirement rather than goods or construction, and the selected provider was Ashurst Perkins Coie UK LLP, a large legal practice based in London.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. British Patient Capital Ltd selected Ashurst Perkins Coie UK LLP on 21 July 2026. The award value was £25,000. The contract period ran from 16 September 2026 to 30 September 2026. Bids were due by 21 July 2026. The route was use of the Government Commercial Agency RM6360 Legal Panel, Lot 3, covering Finance and High Risk / Innovation. The tender was classified as a services procurement and had a total stated value of £25,000. The recorded tender status is complete and the award status is active. The contracting process does not publish a separate procurement method or detailed award-scoring basis beyond the panel route and its specialist Lot 3 scope.

This award demonstrates demand from British Patient Capital for specialist legal support relating to finance, high-risk matters and innovation. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need legal capability across those areas, with experience advising on financially complex or commercially sensitive work and the ability to handle heightened risk. Access to, or eligibility for, the Government Commercial Agency RM6360 Legal Panel and its Lot 3 would be important because that was the route used here. The selected supplier was a large legal practice, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with substantial organisational resources. Firms should therefore be able to provide appropriately experienced lawyers, manage short specialist assignments efficiently and demonstrate relevant work for an institutional investment client.
