Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) is currently seeking bids for the provision of legal services under an open procurement method. This tender, titled "Health and Care Professions Council - Legal Services", encompasses three distinct lots: corporate advice, regulatory advice, and FTP case specific advice, with contract commencement slated for April 2021 and an initial duration of four years, plus a one-year extension option. The tender period concludes on 17 December 2020, with responses expected from interested parties in the United Kingdom and abroad, including British Overseas Territories and the Channel Islands.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for law firms specialising in corporate and regulatory advice, particularly those seeking to expand their client base within the public sector. Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) with experience in legal advisory services will find the multiple lots appealing, as they can submit proposals for all three while being selected for a maximum of two. Firms should be prepared to demonstrate their previous work in relevant sectors and indicate preferences for the lots they wish to bid for, making this a strategic opportunity for businesses focused on public sector contracts.
