Barrister Services Framework 2023

It is Hyde's intention in respect of this invitation to tender to create a Framework Agreement for the supply of Barrister Services for the use of primarily The Hyde Group (Hyde) but also for the use of other public sector authorities as defined in the FTS contract notice. The Service Provider will generally be required to provide barrister services subject to project specific requirements under each Call-off Agreement but will primarily cover the services described in this document. The proposed duration of the Framework is for four (4) years in line with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

Hyde are seeking to select and award a contract to a number of panel providers.
