## Summary

The procurement process involves Public Health England (PHE) awarding a contract for legal support services related to various construction and refurbishment projects at their Harlow campus. This tender, titled "PHE - Science Hub - The Provision Of Legal Support Services," is classified under legal advisory and representation services (CPV code: 79110000). The contract, valued at £500,000, commenced on 1st May 2020 and is set to conclude on 30th April 2025. Notably, the procurement method utilised was selective, executed through a call-off from a framework agreement, and the tender period ended on 28th August 2019.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for legal firms with expertise in construction and public sector contracts, particularly those capable of handling complex legal scenarios during multi-phase projects. Given the size and scope of PHE’s construction initiatives, businesses specialising in legal advisory services may find this contract particularly beneficial for growth and expansion. Competitors should ideally possess a strong background in engineering and contract law to effectively address PHE’s legal requirements throughout the lifecycle of the projects.

## Notice

As previously outlined, PHE have awarded contracts to three contractors to undertake the four construction/ refurbishment projects at the Harlow campus. These contractors have been procured through a full OJEU compliant negotiated procurement process. The contractors have been initially appointed on a bespoke Pre-Construction Service Agreement (PCSA) and will migrate to the NEC 3 Engineering & Contract (ECC) form with 'z clauses', as the respective projects move forward. The contracts have been drafted in-conjunction with an external legal organisation. As with most major construction/ refurbishment programmes of this magnitude, PHE recognise there is a significant likelihood of legal issues arising during the contract term. Such matters will require the services of a legal organisation to provide legal advice and support as appropriate.
