Procurement and Tendering

Our team advises on major and smaller-scale projects, as well as on routine procurements and wider procurement initiatives and frameworks.

We are experienced in dealing with all issues relating to project procurement, including different methods of procurement, including traditional contracting, design and build contracting, PPP and EU procurement rules.

We offer an end-to-end procurement service from devising procurement strategies to contract administration and management. We advise on procurement strategy for large projects, guiding clients through all steps of the procurement process, from the initial advertisement through to debriefing of unsuccessful tenderers, including drafting and advising on all procurement documents.

Our approach is to allow public bodies and utilities to use public procurement to deliver the outcomes they want. For bidders we offer detailed understanding and analysis of up to the minute developments in procurement law and seek to promote bidder rights as well as assisting in bidder tender strategies.

Experienced in bringing and / or defending of procurement challenges, we represent clients in High Court proceedings seeking set aside and damages, as well as on complaints to the European Commission.

Our team regularly provide procurement law training to public sector bodies and utilities. We also provide general and bespoke client briefings on legal developments.
