UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority has recently terminated a legal contract drafting process titled "TVCA-PROC-0650 - Solar for Business Legal Contract Drafting," aimed at creating legal documentation related to solar projects within the industry category of legal services. Located in Darlington, UKC13, the authority sought to engage with North East & Yorkshire Net Zero Hub for the development of roof leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs). Initially awarded to Muckle LLP under a limited competition procurement method, the contract experienced early completion by 31st March 2026. Notably, key dates included the contract signing on 22nd January 2026, concluding with a publication notice issued on 14th April 2026, signalling the contract's termination.

The procurement process for solar-related legal contract drafting by Tees Valley Combined Authority presented business opportunities primarily for firms specialising in legal documentation and certification services. With the focus on energy and infrastructure sectors, this provides growth avenues for SMEs equipped with expertise in drafting lease and agreement documents for renewable energy projects. The original contract offered £26,660 in value and contained options for extension until September 2026, promising sustained engagement, dependent on funding availability. Thus, this tender was suited to legal firms, particularly those well-versed in energy sectors and possessing capabilities to support net-zero projects effectively.
