Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Transport (DfTc) in England has completed the procurement process for legal advisers for contract management under the title "P4104094 Legal Advisers for Contract Management." This procurement falls within the legal services industry category (CPV 79100000) and covers various regions, including the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The tender process was selective, involving a call-off from the RM6204 Rail Legal Services Framework. The contract, valued at £45,000 excluding VAT, commenced on 23rd February 2024 and will expire on 22nd November 2024. An extension of £15,000 from the original £30,000 was added. The procurement stage has been completed with Burges Salmon LLP, based in Bristol, awarded the contract.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in legal advisory services, particularly those with experience in contract management within the rail sector. Large firms like Burges Salmon LLP, which have established capabilities and expertise within the framework agreements, are well-positioned to compete for such contracts. However, this contract may not be suitable for SMEs or VCSEs due to the specific requirements and scale involved. Business growth can be achieved through securing such high-value, government-backed projects, which provide not only financial benefits but also enhance a company’s portfolio and reputation in the legal services market.
