## Summary

Brighton & Hove City Council has completed the procurement process for the "BHCC DH Legal Services Online Resources Subscription." This tender falls under the industry-specific software package category, with additional emphasis on legal advisory and information services. The procurement was conducted using a direct approach, specifically a single tender action below threshold. The contract, valued at £390,044, commenced on 1 April 2026 and will conclude on 31 March 2029, covering legal services within the South East region of the United Kingdom. The award, made to Thomson Reuters Group Limited, was finalised on 31 March 2026, with the official notice published on 21 April 2026.

The tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in legal research and software services, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive and authoritative online legal resources.

In addition, vendors in related sectors or possessing similar capabilities may explore future tenders from Brighton & Hove City Council, given their requirement for specialised software and advisory services.
