The contracting authority, Town and Country Housing based in Tunbridge Wells, UK, has initiated a procurement process for "Ad Hoc Legal Services" under the CPV code 79100000 (Legal services). This is an open tender aimed at establishing a framework allowing for call-off contracts to provide ad-hoc legal advice in various situations including housing management, employment advice, ASB issues, contract formation, disrepair claims, and general advice. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 27th August 2024 at 12:00 PM BST. The total contract value is estimated at £1,000,000 GBP, and the contract period will last for approximately four years (1440 days) without any renewal options.

This tender offers significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in legal services, particularly those focusing on housing and employment law.

As the framework allows for multiple call-off contracts, this can help businesses establish long-term relationships with a public sector client and secure steady work over the contract period. Companies with a solid track record in delivering legal services to government entities or housing associations will be particularly well-suited to compete for this tender.
