## Summary

The Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for "Legal Advice and Support" services, intended under a direct award from the NHSC Legal Service Framework. The tender involved the selective procurement of legal advisory services, classified under CPV code 79111000. The procurement stage is marked as complete, with a contract period commencing on 10th April 2026 and concluding on 10th April 2028. The contract, valued at £200,000, addresses legal advisory needs pertinent to the UK, specifically located in Leatherhead. The award of this contract was published on 7th July 2026, following its active status from 3rd July 2026.

This tender process centres on legal advisory services and presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in this sector. It might be especially attractive to businesses seeking to expand their portfolios through collaborations with public health organisations like the NHS. Though this specific contract was awarded to Hill Dickinson LLP, it highlights the potential for similar opportunities within framework agreements, where qualified and competitive legal service providers can offer their expertise to public entities. Businesses interested in similar procurement processes should consider aligning their services with framework agreements that allow for direct or selective award methods.
