Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care (T&T) in London has initiated a procurement process for "External Legal Litigation Advisory Services." This contract, valued at £400,000, focuses on securing additional legal support through DLA Piper UK LLP, a firm associated with the Government Legal Department's approved framework. The procurement, classified under recruitment services, is currently in the award stage, with the contract period running from 1 July 2021 to 1 October 2021. The tender's call-off from a framework agreement signifies a selective procurement method, with the tender period having ended on 30 June 2021.

This tender presents an opportunity for legal firms specialising in litigation or those seeking to expand their legal service offerings in the public sector.

As the procurement is active, businesses with established capabilities in providing legal advisory services are well-suited to compete, particularly in the healthcare sector.
