UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Prosecution Service, a central government authority located in London, has concluded a procurement process titled "POC Legal Subscription" in the services industry, specifically targeting legal subscription services related to the Proceeds of Crime area. The process followed a direct procurement method, which was conducted below the threshold without competition. The award was granted on 30 January 2026, and the contract with supplier Lexis Nexis commenced on 2 February 2026, set to last until 1 February 2028. The total gross value of the contract is £26,671.20, paid in GBP.

This direct procurement of legal subscription services presents opportunities for businesses involved in providing specialised subscription services—particularly those with capacities aligned with legal and government-related domains.

Similar businesses that can offer unique subscription services for government entities may find potential growth opportunities by positioning themselves as responsive and knowledgeable suppliers able to meet stringent governmental requirements.
