## Summary

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in London has awarded a contract for "EMF Legal Services" under the business services category, specifically focusing on law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. This process has reached the award stage, with Bevan Brittan LLP selected as the supplier. The contract period is set to commence from 12 January 2026 and conclude on 12 April 2026. The award was officially published on 27 March 2026, with the contract valued at £200,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in legal services to expand their market presence and establish relationships within the public sector. Given the focus on business services such as law and consulting, companies specialising in these areas, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and those involved in the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector, would be well-suited to compete in such future opportunities. This contract allows suppliers to engage with a government department, providing stability and potential for substantial business growth.
