Summary of the contracting process

Pool Re Services Limited, a sub-central government public authority based in London, is in the process of establishing a comprehensive Legal Services Framework Agreement. This framework aims to cover the provision of legal services across two lots: General Legal Advice Services and Major Projects and Complex Legal Advice Services. The procurement is being conducted under the Light Touch Contracts regime, regulated by the Procurement Act 2023. Key milestones include the future signature date of 20 February 2026, and the framework agreement is set to commence on 1 April 2026, with an anticipated completion date of 31 March 2031, subject to renewal options extending potentially to 2036. The competitive flexible procedure means multiple suppliers will be selected through an open procurement method, with Pool Re reserving the right to appoint a maximum of four framework providers per lot.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for large legal service providers with expertise in UK law, particularly those experienced in advising public sector bodies and regulated financial services firms. The framework aims at integrating various specialisms such as public procurement law, data protection, complex financial services regulation, and litigation, making it ideal for firms with extensive capabilities across these areas. Companies like Bird & Bird LLP, Mills & Reeve LLP, Hogan Lovells International LLP, and others have already been awarded as suppliers, indicating strong competition and high standards for participation. The potential for call-off contracts under this framework further enhances business opportunities, as organisations can benefit from a wide spectrum of legal deliverables tailored to the requirements of Pool Re Services Limited.

Notice Title

Legal Services Framework

Notice Description

Pool Re wishes to establish a Framework Agreement ("the Framework") with multiple suppliers for the provision of Legal Services. The procurement is being conducted under the Light Touch Contracts regime and is therefore subject to the applicable provisions within the Procurement Act 2023. Providers appointed to the Framework will provide services in respect of the specialisms required for the specific Lot(s) to which they are appointed. The Framework will be divided into two (2) Lots: Lot 1 - General Legal Advice Services; and Lot 2 - Major Projects and Complex Legal Advice Services. The Lots are not exclusive, and Tenderers may bid to be appointed to one and/or both Lots. Both Lots shall provide Legal Services predominantly in the law of England and Wales. On occasion, depending on the nature of the engagement, Pool Re may require advice on the law of foreign jurisdictions in respect of the required specialisms, for either Lot. In the event that advice is required on the law of a foreign jurisdiction, the Provider and Pool Re shall agree in advance and in writing the approach to be taken in delivering the advice.
