## Summary

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Justice, which is seeking consultancy services for a review of its Shared Service protocol, titled "Government Legal Department (GLD) Shared Service Review". This contract falls under the business and management consultancy industry category, with a specific focus on services related to business development and human resources management consultancy. The tender period has concluded, with a contract value of £17,800. The award was made on 27 January 2020, and the contract commenced on 17 February 2020, ending on 31 March 2020. This procurement method was conducted through a selective process, involving a call-off from a framework agreement.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, as the contract's requirements align well with their capabilities, fostering innovation and personalised service.

## Notice

The aim of this review is to look at whether the current (June 2018) Shared Service protocol is still fit for purpose, and whether it is the most effective way for the three departments to work together. The review should also look at whether there is still a significant saving being made, if payment reflects current market rates and whether the Shared Service model has helped to cut down on duplication of work from the three departments. The review should also aim to look at how much time each department puts in to the Shared Service, and how work is prioritised. It should also advise on the scope for more forward strategic communications planning between the respective law offices.
