“A broad range of legal services typical to Further Education will be needed.”

The proposed contract will operate for an initial two-year term commencing 10 March 2025 with four options to extend in one-year increments (or as agreed between the parties) up to a maximum term ending 09 March 2031 subject to satisfactory performance and an agreement of rates.

The time limit for receipt of tenders or requests to participate is 22 January 2025 (12:00pm).
