Summary of the contracting process

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed the tender process for the "BTH25-039 Provision of Paralegal Services" contract, classified under the legal services industry (CPV code: 79100000). This contract involves providing temporary legal support to assist the governance team of the Trust. The procurement method used was selective, specifically through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 30th March 2025, and the contract commenced on 31st March 2025, running until 30th July 2025. Key locations associated with this contract include Bradford (postal code BD9 6RJ), British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The total value of the contract awarded is £51,660 GBP.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for firms specializing in legal services capable of providing high-quality paralegal assistance. While the procurement process is selective, businesses operating within established frameworks can benefit from such contracts, enabling them to expand their legal support services. Although small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) were not targeted for suitability, larger legal firms like DAC Beachcroft LLP are ideal candidates for such bids, leveraging their scale and expertise to fulfil the Trust's requirements effectively. Engaging in this framework enhances reputation and opens doors for future contracts within the healthcare sector.
