## Summary

The National Archives is currently conducting a tender process titled "Opportunity to Supply Digital Copies of Court Judgments to the National Archives," within the services sector, specifically focusing on data supply services. Located in Richmond, UK, this procurement is in the active tender stage, with submissions due by 21 January 2022. The total budget for this project is approximately £500,000, and it aims to acquire multiple sets of digital copies of court judgments and tribunal decisions to preserve historical records for public access.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in digitisation, archival services, and data management. Companies that specialise in converting legal documents into digital formats, particularly those familiar with handling sensitive and historical data, would be well-positioned to compete. The open procedure allows various suppliers to submit proposals, enhancing the potential for collaboration and innovation in providing these valuable public records.

## Notice

The National Archives (TNA) is seeking to secure for the nation the historical public record of the decisions of the senior courts and upper tribunals by acquiring, through purchase or donation, digital copies of Court Judgments and Tribunal Decisions. These will be preserved for posterity and made available for public access, including, where it is appropriate to do so, by publication as part of a new service on The National Archives website. The scope of this tender is to acquire digital copies of Court Judgments and Tribunal Decisions, with a particular focus on published judgments. These might be born digital copies of handed down judgments (for example those which have been sent to law reporters or legal publishers by the clerk or judge), digital transcriptions of extempore judgments, or digitised images of the paper records of judgments (including from publications). TNA wishes to procure multiple, overlapping sets of judgements and tribunal decisions for corroboration purposes. As such, TNA envisages awarding multiple contracts as a result of this procurement exercise, the number of contracts awarded being dependent on the volume and quality of submissions received and on affordability within the total allocated budget of circa PS500,000.
