## Summary

The Government Legal Department procured general legal advice services for property partnering under its Central Property requirement. The work covers legal advisory services supporting property-partnering activity and is delivered across the United Kingdom. This is a professional legal services contract, rather than a property construction or facilities-management requirement. The appointed suppliers are TLT LLP and Burges Salmon LLP, both large law firms. The buying organisation is the Government Legal Department, based in London. Businesses relevant to this requirement are commercial legal practices with the expertise to advise on property partnering and related public-sector property matters. The procurement is categorised as services, with the CPV classification 79111000 for legal advisory services.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026 at 17:00. The award was made on 17 July 2026 to TLT LLP and Burges Salmon LLP, jointly awarded £2,000,000. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 20 July 2026, ending at 23:59:59. The recorded tender value was also £2,000,000. The available procurement information identifies legal advisory services as the requirement and confirms that the contract was awarded through the framework call-off route. The award is active, and both appointed firms are recorded as suppliers.

For firms that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from the Government Legal Department for specialist legal support connected with public-sector property partnering. A credible future competitor would need a strong property law practice, experience advising on partnering arrangements, and the ability to provide clear, commercially focused advice to a central government legal client. The appointment of two large law firms indicates that relevant scale, established capacity and the ability to resource work alongside another appointed provider are important. Suppliers should also be able to operate across UK property matters and understand public-sector requirements, framework call-off procedures and government-facing legal delivery. The requirement is suited to substantial commercial legal practices rather than SMEs or VCSEs.
