    Brief

    This is a contract details notice, not a call for competition. This procurement is being awarded without competition due to technical reasons - only a particular supplier can provide the required services. Innovate UK requires Scottish law legal documentation and support services. This work is linked to an existing contract with Mills & Reeve LLP, who have engaged Burness Paull LLP to provide specialized assistance and support on matters falling under Scottish law, which is outside Mills & Reeve's jurisdiction. The successful supplier will deliver legal documentation and advisory services specific to Scottish law requirements.
