Summary of the contracting process

YPO, a leading public sector procurement authority, is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "YPO - 001271 Barrister Services," classified under legal services (CPV 79100000). This initiative aims to create a compliant route for public sector organisations needing barrister services. Located in Wakefield, UK, this engagement involves preliminary supplier and customer interactions scheduled from 4 November to 22 November 2024, with interested parties required to contact Danielle Langrick by 15 November 2024. This early market engagement is not a commitment to advertise the tender but a means to ensure a fit-for-purpose solution under the Procurement Act 2023.

This tender presents significant opportunities for law firms, barristers' chambers, and providers of legal advisory and representation services. Engaging in this preliminary process can position these entities favourably should YPO proceed with formal procurement. The framework seeks to provide access to high-quality barrister services, complementing YPO's recent legal services framework. Businesses in the legal services industry, particularly those offering comprehensive barrister and legal advisory solutions, stand to benefit substantially by participating in this early engagement phase, thereby enhancing their visibility and potential growth within the public sector.
