This procurement is in the planning stage and involves several industry categories, specifically housing and community amenities, with services spread across regions in the UK, including central Scotland and Dumfries and Galloway. The Framework Agreement will last 36 months with an optional 12-month extension. Businesses interested in participating must express their interest by 4th March 2026. The services are categorised into seven lots: Commercial Contracts, Legal Governance & Charities, Legal Employment & General Civil Litigation, Financing, Sheriff Officer Services for distinct regions, and Property Searching & Reporting Services. This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in legal services, governance, employment law, and property services, particularly those equipped to handle housing association needs. Companies providing services in procurement, commercial litigation, intellectual property, and real estate are also well-poised to benefit. Engaging in this multi-lot framework could facilitate business growth for firms offering comprehensive legal advice across various sectors and locales, both in Scotland and the wider UK. The Wheatley Housing Group, acting as both buyer and central purchasing body, seeks diverse expertise to support its expansive service requirements, offering a robust platform for expanding business operations in the public sector. ## Notice The Wheatley Group intends to establish a multi-lot Framework Agreement for the provision of Legal & Associated Services.
