Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority, based at the Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire, conducted a procurement process for the provision of Immigration and Visa Advice, aimed at supporting their secondees being posted overseas. This procurement process belongs to the legal advisory services industry category (CPV 79111000) and covers a broad geographical scope including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World. The tender was conducted using a selective, restricted procedure, closing on 3rd March 2025. The awarded contract commenced on 16th June 2025 and is set to conclude on 16th June 2027, with the total award valued at £2,200,000. Fragomen LLP, a large-scale supplier, was chosen to fulfil this contract, marking the procurement stage as 'Award'.

This contract presents significant opportunities for legal service businesses looking to expand their engagements in providing specialised advice on immigration and visas, especially those with capabilities to operate on an international scale. While this instance did not prioritise SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSE), companies that can offer comprehensive legal advisory and information services on a global scale are well aligned to compete in similar future tenders. Engaging with such procurement opportunities can facilitate business growth by broadening service portfolios and enhancing industry presence in strategic international exchanges.
