## Summary

The Scottish Government has completed a procurement process for an interim legal staff contract, specifically to hire a lawyer to provide legal services. The project, titled "INTERIM LEGAL STAFF - LAWYER," falls under the General Public Services industry category with the location being Scotland (Region: UKM75). The procurement method was limited, meaning it was an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, justified as a call down from an existing framework (CPV code: 79100000). The contracting process, initiated on 10th December 2024, has already been awarded on the same date, and involves a contract value of £83,969 payable in GBP. The project includes an option to extend the service for an additional 11 months if necessary.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the legal services sector. Service Care Solutions, an SME, has been awarded the contract, highlighting the emphasis on involving smaller firms in public sector projects. Businesses with expertise in providing interim legal staff or similar legal services would find this opportunity advantageous for business growth, especially those focusing on or looking to expand their operations within Scotland. The contract's specifics and the streamlined procurement process could serve as an excellent reference for similar future opportunities, proving beneficial for growing business networks within the public sector legal services market.
