Published requirement description

Tees Valley Combined Authority wishes to establish a group-wide legal services framework to provide specialist legal support in a range of disciplines which will be divided into Lots.

Prospective providers for respective Lots will be required to demonstrate previous experience in their field and within specific sectors. It is recognised that there may be some cross-over between Lots, and some commissions may span more than one Lot.

It is anticipated that the total value of all the Lots over the next 4 years will be between five and seven and half million. (subject to the needs and resources of external funders).

Each Lot is divided into part A and part B as detailed more fully in section 13 below.
