Summary of the contracting process

The National Audit Office in London has recently awarded a contract for Legal Services, specifically covering legal fees associated with the sub-letting of BPR.

The tender process reached completion, with the award announced on March 27, 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in legal advisory services to expand their business.
