## Summary

The COMPETITION AND MARKETS AUTHORITY has completed the procurement process for the "Law 360 Access Agreement" in the subscription services sector. This tender, identified as PROC-888-2024, involves a contract for breaking news and in-depth analysis services provided by Law 360, with an emphasis on fast delivery and detailed reporting, particularly in relation to US news. The service will be delivered to E14 4QZ, London. The procurement method used was a single tender action below the threshold, conducted via a direct approach. The tender period ended on 26th July 2024, and the contract spans from 31st July 2024 to 30th July 2026. The total value of the contract is £15,107.01.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in high-speed news delivery and in-depth journalism to grow by satisfying the COMPETITION AND MARKETS AUTHORITY's need for timely and detailed news coverage. Companies in the subscription and media services industries, particularly those with specialised US news sections, are well-placed to benefit from such contracts. Though the awarded contract has been finalised with RELX UK (T/A LexisNexis), future similar opportunities could arise for businesses eager to expand their services to public sector clients.

## Notice

3.2 The news service that Law 360 provides includes breaking news and in-depth analysis of news articles, which are not comparable to the news features that our current subscriptions provide in terms of speed and the detail provided. This is particularly the case in relation to the US news, which Press and Know-how has found gives unique insights unavailable on other services. Law 360 aims to deliver key developments fast with most events being covered within 24 hours, in their experience however the news has been published much faster than that, with key developments breaking first on Law 360.
