UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Legal Services Framework" is currently in the planning stage, initiated by ADVANTAGE SOUTHWEST LLP, a public authority operating at the sub-central government level. Located in Exeter, UK, the organisation is seeking to establish a framework agreement for legal services, categorised under CPV code 79100000. The completion of the planned contract period is set to begin on 1 July 2026 and end on 30 June 2030. Interested suppliers should note that a future notice is expected to be communicated by 1 October 2025. The procurement falls within the services category and is aimed at supporting legal needs across the South West region of the UK.

This tender opens up significant opportunities for businesses specialising in legal services to secure a long-term framework agreement. Firms with expertise in delivering these services and a strong regional presence in the UK, especially within the South West, will be well-suited to compete for this framework. Potential growth can be realised from the extended service provision and association with a public authority, facilitating further networking and business expansion in the legal sector. Additionally, being part of a framework agreement means consistent work and potential stability in revenue over the contract period.
