## Summary

The Post Office recently completed a selective procurement process using a call-off from a framework agreement to obtain legal services for its multi-sourcing project. The procurement was categorised under legal services with the CPV code 79100000. This project, located in London, England, was reported as completed on 31st March 2025, with contracts running from 1st April 2025 to 31st May 2025. The value of the awarded contract, granted to DLA Piper UK LLP, was £239,000. The procurement process was at the award stage, with the award published on 22nd May 2025.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses experienced in providing legal services, particularly those with expertise in handling multi-sourcing projects. Although DLA Piper UK LLP, a large-scale entity, was awarded the contract, there is potential for other legal firms to engage in similar future procurement opportunities, especially those capable of operating under framework agreements. Businesses looking to expand in the public sector legal services market should consider similar tenders to broaden their expertise and client base.
