Summary of the contracting process

West College Scotland procured a one-stop-shop legal services provision covering a variety of legal services for the college and its associated campuses. The buyer is West College Scotland, an education provider based in Paisley. The work is delivered across the college’s campuses; Paisley is the stated buyer location.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Anderson Strathern LLP. It was run as an open procedure and awarded against the APUC Framework Agreement for Legal Services. The contract is active and was signed on 17 August 2026, with a recorded contract value of £68,000. The requirement was arranged as one lot. The available bid statistics record one bid for that lot. The award entry does not give an award date or contract-period dates.

This award shows demand from West College Scotland for a single provider to deliver a broad, one-stop-shop range of legal services across its campuses. A competing supplier would need to demonstrate capacity to cover varied legal work for a multi-campus college through a single service relationship. The award was made under the APUC Framework Agreement for Legal Services, so familiarity with that framework route would be commercially relevant. Anderson Strathern LLP, a large law firm, was selected; the procurement recorded one bid. These details indicate a requirement suited to a supplier able to provide broad legal-service coverage rather than a narrow specialist offer. No specific legal practice areas or professional accreditations are identified in the procurement.
