## Summary

The procurement process for legal advice in relation to an existing UK Export Finance (UKEF) supported financing transaction has reached the award stage. UK Export Finance, located at 1 Horse Guards Road, London, was the buying organisation for this single tender action, specifically below threshold. The contract was awarded to Clifford Chance LLP on 26th June 2024, with services commencing on 1st July 2024 and running until 30th June 2025. This tender falls under the legal services category, valued at GBP 303,325, and is focused on services within the postal code SW1A 2HQ in England.

This tender can open doors for growth by providing a lucrative opportunity for businesses specialising in legal services associated with financial transactions, claims, and recoveries. While the procurement favoured a single tender approach, it underscores the demand for competent legal advisory services in high-stakes financial situations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in legal finance can find similar opportunities valuable, especially those looking to establish or enhance their portfolio with government contracts. The awarded contract to Clifford Chance LLP, a large-scale entity based in Dubai, illustrates the scope and competitive nature of such procurements.
