Short description of the contract or purchase(s): The purpose of this framework agreement is to provide a broad range of Legal Services for members of PfH in Scotland who require legal advice or guidance on any aspect of their businesses within Social Housing. This framework presents a distinct offering and welcomes niche suppliers to apply for specific lots if they wish to do so.
The estimated total lot values provided in the table represent the potential spend ranges. As no historical data was available, the values provided have been estimated and may change over the length of the contract. It should be noted that all values are indicative and do not represent any guaranteed volume of business through this framework. Given the impending abolition of the Part B classification of services in the EU Procurement Directives, which previously encompassed Legal Services, there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding the potential additional future demand for Legal Services via a framework route. This, coupled with the fact that this is a new framework area for PfH, and therefore no historical data exists internally, has meant that PfH have endeavoured to the best of their abilities to provide a range of values which it believes to be reflective of the potential demand for this contract.
