    "description": "The Scottish Procurement & Property Directorate (SPPD) is the organisation tasked with procuring requirements on behalf of the Scottish public sector bodies. The current Legal Services Framework is due to expire on 31 August 2027. Work has commenced in developing the procurement strategy options including canvassing of stakeholders views. In order to complete and finalise the strategy, SPPD recognises the value of suppliers having the opportunity to contribute to this process on a non-competitive, non-judgemental basis. This request for information is aimed at collating those views from market participants. This information may be utilised in developing the procurement strategy to help deliver contractual arrangements for Legal Services. Suppliers and other interested parties should read the 'Supplementary Information' document attached in the 'Additional Documents' section of this notice. We then request that you complete the Request for Information Online Questionnaire using the link below: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/i2dcNuFkt8 The questionnaire will be available for all interested parties until 29th June 2026.
