# Canberra Firms Secure Federal Legal Work

Canberra-based firms Allygroup, Limber and Flxbl secured legal services work through the Australian Government’s whole-of-government legal services panel in 2026. Reported contract ceilings are approximately $20 million for Allygroup, $6.2 million for Limber and $3.1 million for Flxbl; these are maximum values, not confirmed expenditure. The work spans federal agencies and highlights demand for flexible legal capacity, including seconded staff and support for fluctuating agency workloads.

- Procurement teams can use the panel to access legal providers offering flexible, outcome- and budget-focused services; the reported awards indicate opportunities for firms able to scale support to agency needs.
- Allygroup’s work is reported across federal agencies, Limber’s contracts and variations involve eight agencies, and Flxbl’s work is primarily associated with the Department of Social Services and Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
- Legal services providers seeking similar work can assess whether their service models can deliver defined outcomes within agency budgets and accommodate changing workloads.
