## Summary

The Scottish National Investment Bank has completed a procurement process for Project Clownfish Legal Services, utilising a direct award through the CCS Public Sector Legal Services Framework RM6240. The procurement falls under the industry category of services, focusing on economic affairs. The bank, headquartered in Edinburgh, UK, has managed the open procurement procedure, culminating in an award that was formalised on 28th January 2026. The contracting stage has reached completion, and the project involves the delivery of legal services within Edinburgh, UKM75 region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for large legal service providers looking to expand their client base within public sector frameworks. Given the method used, it was an open procedure that followed the standard protocols for direct awarding, paving the way for large businesses like CMS Cameron McKenna Nabarro Olswang LLP, the successful supplier, to secure contracts worth £60,000. Engaging in similar procurement processes can be highly beneficial for large firms equipped to deliver comprehensive legal services and interested in establishing or strengthening relationships with public sector organisations. Such opportunities are less suited to SMEs, as indicated by the lack of bids from smaller enterprises in this instance.
