Summary of the contracting process

The Construction Industry Training Board procured legal services for its activities in Peterborough. The requirement was classified as legal services and covered one lot. The work was associated with the buyer’s Peterborough operation, at 4 Cyrus Way, Cygnet Park, Hampton. The procurement was for services rather than goods or construction works. The named public sector buyer is the Construction Industry Training Board, an education-sector organisation. The selected provider is Addleshaw Goddard LLP, a large legal practice based in London. The requirement therefore suits firms providing professional legal advice and related legal services to public bodies, particularly those able to support a national organisation while delivering work connected with Peterborough.

The procurement has reached completion. It used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, through the CCS/GCA RM6240 Public Sector Legal Services framework. The stated rationale was that the procurement fell outside the relevant directive’s scope. The single lot was recorded as cancelled, but an active award and contract were made for the legal services requirement. Addleshaw Goddard LLP was awarded the contract on 24 June 2026. The contract value is £500,000. The award followed one bid, which was submitted electronically; the recorded award criterion was price. The contract is active and its signing date was 24 June 2026. No contract duration is stated in the procurement data.

This outcome indicates demand from the Construction Industry Training Board for substantial public-sector legal services delivered through an established public-sector framework. A credible future competitor would need to be a legal services provider with access to the CCS/GCA RM6240 framework, or an equivalent route where permitted, and the capability to support a public education and training organisation. The buyer selected on price, so firms would need a cost-competitive service model alongside the ability to provide reliable legal advice at the scale of a large, multi-site public body. Experience of public-sector governance, procurement and contractual matters would be commercially relevant, as would the capacity to manage work for a buyer headquartered in Peterborough.
