Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency has recently completed a tender for legal services concerning corporate and operational matters related to its functions. This procurement process was initiated on 15 August 2019, culminating in an award on 12 December 2019. The tender was structured under an open procedure, inviting competition in the services category, specifically focusing on provision of legal advice. The procurement was set in Stirling, with a total budget of £500,000, and all submissions were due for consideration by 27 September 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for law firms specialising in environmental protection and public sector legal advisory services. Given the competitive nature of the bidding process, businesses that aim to grow in this sector should possess strong legal credentials, especially around compliance with the Solicitors (Scotland) Act 1980. Bidders should also be prepared to demonstrate robust financial standing and evidence of prior relevant experience, making this an attractive opportunity for established firms in the legal landscape seeking to expand their practice in governmental and environmental sectors.
