## Summary

The Money and Pensions Service (MaPS) has successfully completed the procurement process for a legal services contract, awarding it to Mills & Reeve LLP. This contract involves providing legal support and advice to MaPS, focusing on oversight of its key policies and processes. The procurement falls under the category of legal services and is valued at £1.38 million. Initiated as a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement, the tender was active in the United Kingdom. The contract is set to span from 29th September 2025 to 28th September 2027, aligning with MaPS's core service needs.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the legal sector, particularly for those with a focus on advising public service entities like MaPS. Large firms with the capacity to manage contracts of this scale and complexity, such as Mills & Reeve LLP, demonstrated suitability in this tender. While the contract has already been awarded, future opportunities may exist for similar services or subsequent procurements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the legal sector should consider pursuing framework agreements with government bodies to access similar opportunities.
