## Summary

The Centre for Process Innovation Limited has successfully completed the procurement process for the "1460 - Legal Advice Framework", which aims to establish an external legal panel for advice across various matters within the organisation. The procurement process was classified under legal services (CPV code: 79100000) and utilised an open procedure below threshold. The contract has a total value of £189,330 and covers a contract period starting from 6 April 2020 until 5 April 2024. The award notice was published on 7 April 2020, following the tender period that concluded on 31 January 2020. The services will be delivered in the North East region of the United Kingdom.

This framework presents significant opportunities for businesses in the legal sector, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Firms offering legal services, especially those with expertise in providing external legal advice, are well-positioned to compete for contracts under this framework. The diverse requirements of CPI suggest that businesses with a flexible approach and capability in various legal domains could grow by engaging with this contracting authority over the duration of the framework.
