## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (T&T) has awarded a contract for External Legal Advisory Services, aimed at providing expertise that cannot be sourced from their internal teams or the Government Legal Department cost-effectively. This contract falls under the category of general management consultancy services and is located in London, United Kingdom (SW1H 0EU). The procurement method utilised was selective, executed through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £15,000, commenced on 27th January 2021 and is set to conclude by 30th September 2021, with the last date for tender submission having been 26th January 2021.

This opportunity presents a significant prospect for businesses engaged in management consultancy and legal advisory services, particularly those equipped to provide flexible and expert resources. Given the selective procurement method, larger firms with a proven track record in delivering high-quality legal consultancy would likely be well-suited to compete. Companies that can offer specialised services not delivered by the public sector could find this procurement particularly advantageous for business growth in the public procurement landscape.
