## Summary

Bridgend County Borough Council has completed a direct award contract for Legal Services for Schools under the framework WGCD-PS-130-24. The procurement process utilised a compliant framework from the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery to award the contract to Capital Law, demonstrating the best value for money based on quality and price criteria. This award, covering Educational Law and Employment Law, serves the region of South Wales. The contract was signed on 2nd February 2026 and is valued at £467,700. The procurement method was limited, with a rationale that it falls outside the typical directive's scope, thus no prior publication was needed.

The direct award mechanism presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in legal services, particularly those with expertise in educational and employment law. Capital Law's successful procurement highlights the demand for high-quality legal service providers capable of swiftly responding to regional authority needs. Firms with established reputations in legal services for the education sector and those who can offer exceptional quality and competitive pricing are well-suited to pursue similar frameworks. Additionally, businesses collaborating with local authorities in regions like South Wales might have advantageous positions in securing such contracts.
