## Summary

The recent procurement process by Suffolk Coastal District Council and Waveney District Council awarded a contract titled "Legal Support Services for GYBC" under the industry category of legal services. The contract, valued at £95,000, is part of a call-off from the CCS Framework RM6240, focusing on general service provision across England and Wales. The process was selective, using a call-off from a framework agreement, and has progressed to the award stage as of 18th September 2025. The service delivery will take place in the East of England, with the contract period starting on 19th September 2025 and concluding on 31st December 2027. Richard Hill is the contact person for enquiries at the council.

This contract presents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in legal services to engage with the public sector framework, specifically those capable of providing comprehensive legal support services. While the procurement method was selective and not open to SMEs or VCSEs, large-scale legal service providers like Sharpe Pritchard LLP, who secured this contract, would find such opportunities advantageous for strategic growth. Businesses that are experienced in navigating public sector contracts and who are already equipped to work within established framework agreements will be well-placed to benefit from similar procurement opportunities arranged by local councils.
