Summary of the contracting process

The City of Doncaster Council has completed its procurement process for the "SLH - Legal Services Contract," classified under the CPV code 79100000 for legal services. The contract is intended to provide legal services to St Leger Homes of Doncaster. This procurement, conducted through a direct award method, began with the tender period ending on 3 November 2024 and the contract period running from 3 December 2024 to 2 December 2028. Key locations for this contract include Doncaster, the broader United Kingdom, and various international regions, including Europe and British Overseas Territories. The awarded contract was finalised and published on 6 December 2024, with a total value of £250,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the legal services sector, especially those capable of handling extensive and diverse legal needs. The direct award to Anthony Collins Solicitors LLP, a large firm based in Birmingham, underscores the project's scale and the potential for substantial growth over the long contract period. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) were deemed suitable for this procurement though the current award suggests that larger firms may have a competitive advantage due to the project's scope and duration. Businesses looking to expand their portfolio within the public sector and legal service provision, particularly in housing, would benefit from engaging in similar future opportunities.
