## Summary

The NHS England has completed a public procurement contract titled "LA Legal support re MCPs and PACS s256 Grant", focusing on legal advisory services. This procurement was initiated as a tender and concluded with an award on 31st January 2017. The contract, valued at £168,000, covers the period from 1st February 2017 to 31st March 2018, and services will be delivered across the North West region of England. The tender aimed to provide joint legal support to local authorities in the vanguard sites to assist in developing a contract framework for collaboration with NHS England.

This procurement presents an opportunity for law firms and legal service providers to engage in a contract aimed at enhancing collaborative legal support within the healthcare sector. Businesses that specialise in legal advisory services, particularly those experienced in public sector contracts and health-related legislation, would be well-suited to compete for similar projects in the future, supporting local authorities and NHS functionality. The emphasis on joint procurement could foster partnerships among smaller firms seeking to bid on larger contracts through collaboration.

## Notice
