Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Litigation Authority initiated a tender for the "Legal Services Framework" as part of its ongoing procurement process, primarily focused on legal advisory services. This tender is categorised under services, specifically targeting the health industry, and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement is currently complete, with the legal basis grounded in EU directives. The key contract period spanned from 2022-01-04 to 2026-01-03 and encompassed two lots: one for clinical liabilities and non-clinical negligence claims, and another for regulatory, health, and employment law, both of which had submissions concluding on specific dates throughout 2021 and into 2022.

This framework presents significant opportunities for law firms, particularly those specialising in health-related legal services. With a value of £772 million, this tender encourages participation from both large and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering high-quality legal services. Businesses that can demonstrate expertise in health law and provide solid documentation of quality assurance will thrive in this competitive environment, as evidenced by the tender's award criteria which heavily weights quality over price.
