The procurement was conducted using an open procedure above the threshold, and the tender period ended on 4th March 2024. The contract commences on 14th October 2024 and runs until 13th October 2027, awarded on 8th October 2024. The total value of the contract is GBP 300,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in legal services. The framework is well-suited for both large legal firms and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), focusing on highly complex and evolving areas of technology law. The awarded suppliers, including Muckle LLP, Ward Hadaway LLP, Hill Dickinson LLP, DWF Law LLP, Davitt Jones Bould Limited, and Clarke Willmott LLP, indicate the high calibre of competition.
