Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the University of the West of England, which has awarded a contract for Legal Services under a selective procurement method, specifically through a call-off from a framework agreement. The total contract value is £140,000, and the contract period runs from 7th October 2021 to 8th October 2021. The procurement stage is complete, and the deadline for the tender was on 6th October 2021. The services were classified under the CPV code 79100000, indicating a focus on legal services based in Bristol, England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly law firms with the capacity to provide comprehensive legal services. Given the nature of the contract, larger and established firms like Eversheds, which successfully won the contract, are well-suited to participate. However, firms looking to expand their offerings or those specialising in niche areas of legal expertise may also find opportunities in similar future tenders that arise from the University of the West of England or other institutions. By engaging in this sector, businesses can leverage similar contracts to enhance their profile and client base within the legal services market.
