UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NPL Management Limited, the organisation responsible for the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, appointed a legal services provider for advice on negotiating a conditional land and development agreement. The requirement covers legal and commercial advisory work across planning, property, environmental and contractual matters. It is a professional services procurement, focused on supporting the buyer through the negotiation of a complex property and development arrangement. The services are for activity in the United Kingdom. The relevant service classification is legal advisory and representation services (CPV 79110000). The requirement was arranged as a call-off under Framework Schedule 6, RM6240, and relates to a single completed lot.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was run as a below-threshold procedure, with the specific method recorded as unknown, and used a single lot. TLT LLP, a Bristol-based law firm, was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 9 July 2026 and has a contract period running from 9 July 2026 to 9 July 2026. Its value is £5,000,000 excluding VAT and £6,000,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement title identifies this as a Framework Schedule 6 call-off for legal services supporting the negotiation of the conditional land and development agreement.

This opportunity indicates substantial demand from NPL Management Limited for specialist legal and commercial support on complex land and development transactions. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would be law firms or legal practices with strong capability in planning, property, environmental and commercial contract matters, and with experience advising on conditional land and development agreements. Credibility would depend on being able to combine these disciplines into one coordinated service, support negotiations with commercial judgement, and manage interlocking legal risks across development, land use and environmental issues. A supplier should also be equipped to advise a public undertaking and handle a sizeable, strategically important transaction through detailed negotiation and contract drafting.
