Description
Northumbria Police is seeking information from suitably qualified legal service providers to support the Force with specialist advice relating to public procurement activity under the Procurement Act 2023. The intention of this Request for Information (RFI) is to understand the market's capability, experience, and capacity to provide timely, expert legal support on tendering matters, including pre market activity, document development, compliance considerations, evaluation processes, award governance, and challenge handling. This exercise is exploratory and non committal; however, the information gathered will assist the Force in determining the most appropriate route to market and shaping any future procurement
