The contracting authority needs a framework agreement with one tenderer to ensure that the need for lawyer services is covered when the capacity and competence of the contracting authority’s own employees does not satisfactorily cover the need.

The contracting authority needs lawyer services within a number of fields. This can, for example, be professional or capacity reinforcements of the contracting authority's own lawyers and solicitors, assistance with parts of activities where we do not have capacity, or assistance in ares where the contracting authority does not not have competence. The contracting authority requires expertise and solicitors or solicitor's clerks must be offered, which must be documented upon request.
