## Summary

Great British Energy – Nuclear procured legal advisory services across a range of business areas, to provide additional legal capacity. The requirement covers support for the organisation’s nuclear energy business and was delivered across England and Wales. It is a professional services opportunity for law firms able to advise a public-sector nuclear organisation on varied legal matters. The named requirement is “GBE-N Legal Services Advisor”. The procurement sits within the Legal Panel for Government framework, RM6360, indicating that the buyer used an established government legal services route rather than seeking a general commercial legal supplier. The buying organisation is Great British Energy – Nuclear, based in London. The relevant category is legal services, classified under CPV 79100000.

The procurement is complete and three suppliers were awarded work: Burges Salmon LLP, Pinsent Masons LLP and TLT LLP. Each has an active contract valued at £3,000,000, with each contract signed on 1 August 2026. The lot record is marked cancelled, although the three related awards and contracts are active. The buyer used a limited procedure: a direct award from the Legal Panel for Government framework RM6360, without prior publication of a call for competition. Prospectuses were reviewed and the proposed suppliers were considered experienced in the required support areas. Price was the stated award criterion. Each contract includes an optional extension period of 1x12 months plus a further 1x12 months. The framework route was stated to be compliant under the PCR15 regime.

This outcome indicates demand for large-scale, multi-area legal support from a public-sector nuclear organisation, delivered through a government legal services framework. Firms seeking similar work would need access to the relevant framework route or an equivalent route permitted by the buyer, together with demonstrable experience in the legal areas required by Great British Energy – Nuclear. The selected suppliers were established large law firms, and the procurement specifically relied on evidence that the proposed suppliers were experienced in the required support. Credibility would therefore depend on the depth and availability of a suitably experienced legal team, the capacity to provide additional support across several business areas, and the ability to compete on price within a compliant public procurement process.
