Summary of the contracting process

The Government Commercial Agency, acting for HM Treasury, procured additional legal advisory and information services under a call-off arrangement. The service is intended to support HM Treasury across its full remit, allowing it to instruct legal advisers when needed rather than procuring separate services for each case. Delivery covers the whole of the United Kingdom, including England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, as well as the Isle of Man, Guernsey and Jersey. This is a professional legal services requirement rather than a goods or works contract, and is relevant to law firms or legal service providers able to support central government work across a broad geographic and subject-matter remit.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to TLT LLP on 30 June 2026. It was run as a selective procedure and used a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 22 May 2026 at 12:00. The awarded contract is valued at £1,500,000 including the stated currency of GBP, and runs from 27 July 2026 to 26 July 2028. TLT LLP is the sole recorded supplier and the award is active. The buyer recorded the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The available outcome shows an award, with no separate lot structure or evaluation weighting stated.

For competing legal practices, this award demonstrates demand from HM Treasury for additional legal advisory capacity that can be accessed through framework call-offs rather than case-by-case procurement. A credible future supplier would need to provide legal advice across the Treasury’s broad remit, respond flexibly to instructions as matters arise and operate at the scale expected of a central government client. The requirement’s UK-wide and Crown Dependency coverage points to a need for an organisation able to support work across multiple jurisdictions and locations. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, while the buyer marked the opportunity unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating a substantial provider profile.
