    "description": "The Council has a requirement to procure a legal services framework consisting of our (4 Lots, covering a range of legal services to act as an extension to the in-house legal team. The intention is to utilise and call-upon the legal firms appointed to the framework agreement at times when:\r\n      - There is insufficient resource within the in-house team;\r\n      - The project and/or requirement relates to a specialist and complex requirement, which is unique and would be best with a specialist legal firm with the resource to fulfil the requirement; and\r\n      - Where the risk outweighs the potential cost of seeking the advice. \r\n      For the avoidance of any doubt, the requirement excludes obtaining Counsel advice and representation of the Council in legal court/appeal or similar matters. \r\n      Specific details of a matter / requirement, will be provided prior to confirmation and appointment via a call-off. This specification therefore sets out the general approach to the services, the expected outcomes to be achieved, the principles, response times and core scope of each lot.\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nPlease register via the Council`s e-procurement system - CSW-JETS   https://in-tendhost.co.uk/csw-jets\r\n\r\nCSW-JETS is a sub-regional e-tendering portal run by In-tend. Since February 2010, Coventry; Solihull; Warwickshire; Nuneaton and Bedworth; Rugby alongside other local district Councils have been working together as a shared procurement service. In conjunction with Solihull Community Housing, we have joined together to bring you a collaborative E-Tendering portal. \r\n\r\nCSW-JETS enables us to advertise our opportunities across all authorities through the same system. This means that there is a single point of contact for procurement in the sub-region so you only have to register once to receive notifications for all authorities. Registering on the portal will make it easier for local suppliers to find, respond to and be alerted to tender opportunities. \r\n\r\nRegistration is free, and takes just a few minutes. When complete, you will be able to express interest in any of the Councils\u0027/Authorities\u0027 opportunities when they are made available including this tender. In addition, we will be able to access your details whenever we have a requirement, and you may then be invited to tender or quote for work.\r\n\r\nOnce you are registered and log in to the system you will be able to locate the tender opportunity, express interest and access the documentation.\r\n\r\n\r\nIs a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No",
