## Summary

The Government Legal Department has concluded the procurement process titled "Ad Hoc Legal Support," under the industry category of legal advisory services, with contract delivery in the United Kingdom. The buyer organisation, located in London, aimed to secure selective legal services via a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the contract awarded to TLT LLP, beginning on 1st April 2026 and ending on 31st March 2027. The contract is valued at £50,000, and the procurement was suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), despite being awarded to a large firm.

This tender provides opportunities for SMEs specialising in legal advisory services to engage in similar future partnerships, showcasing the potential for SMEs to compete in selective procurement processes like call-offs from framework agreements. Although the current award went to a larger firm, it highlights the Government Legal Department's dynamic procurement methods to find expert legal support. The focus on legal advisory services suggests ongoing demand for businesses adept in legal consulting, particularly those capable of offering flexible, ad-hoc solutions.
