## Summary

National Wealth Fund Limited procured legal advisory services through a secondee arrangement. The requirement is for a legal professional to work as a secondee, providing legal advice to support the organisation’s activities. It is classified as legal services and falls within the services category. Delivery is in England. The buying organisation is National Wealth Fund Limited, based in Leeds. This is a specialist professional-services requirement rather than a general legal-document or litigation support contract. It is relevant to law firms, legal consultancy businesses and other providers able to supply an appropriately qualified legal secondee for an in-house advisory role. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although not for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 14 August 2026. National Wealth Fund Limited used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. Addleshaw Goddard LLP was awarded the contract for £138,000. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 7 February 2027. The published requirement had a total value of £138,000. The tender submission period ended at 12:00 on 14 August 2026. The award is active, and the awarded contract covers the same legal advisory secondee services for delivery in England. This outcome records a single supplier selection; there are no separate lots or multiple awarded suppliers to distinguish.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from National Wealth Fund Limited for an embedded legal advisory resource rather than an occasional external advice assignment. A credible future competitor would need to provide a suitably qualified legal secondee who can work effectively within the buyer’s organisation, understand its operating environment and deliver practical, responsive in-house support. Law firms and legal consultancies with an established public-sector or institutional advisory practice may be well placed, particularly where they can allocate a named professional and maintain continuity throughout the engagement. The buyer’s use of a framework call-off also indicates that relevant suppliers would need access to an applicable framework and the capability to respond through its call-off process. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs.
