## Summary

The University of Exeter, a public authority in the United Kingdom, recently completed the procurement process for a Practical Law subscription service. This contract, awarded to Thomson Reuters (Professional) UK Limited, began on 1st December 2025 and is set to continue until 30th November 2026, with the possibility of two 12-month extensions. Located in Exeter, the procurement focused on legal services and information systems, using a direct method below the threshold without competition, as outlined by the UK Public General Acts 2023/54. This tender is part of the services category with pertinent delivery within the UKK region.

The Practical Law subscription service presents business growth opportunities, particularly for large enterprises specialising in legal information systems and services. Companies similar to Thomson Reuters can leverage integrated platforms to access cases, legislation, and journals, accommodating the procurement needs of educational institutions like the University of Exeter. As the direct procurement method was utilised, suitable businesses might not compete this round but can seek such opportunities in future extensions or similar tenders. The substantial contract value of £88,920 highlights the potential profitability for specialised service providers entering this space.
