INDIVIDUAL PRACTICE AREAS
Public procurement law
Securing your bids, challenging unlawful awards and asserting your rights during performance.
Our approach
Public procurement follows strict formalities, both at award and during performance. A bid rejected on a technicality, a late service order or unapproved additional works translate directly into financial losses.
We support bidders and contract holders throughout the cycle: preparing bids, challenging award decisions, claims during performance and resolving disputes with the authorities.
What we do
- Review of tender documents and securing bids
- Challenges to award and exclusion decisions
- Claims, service orders and additional works
- Late payment, price revision and penalties
- Contract termination and compensation
- Litigation before the administrative courts
Frequently asked questions
Our bid was rejected: can we challenge it?
Yes, remedies exist, within short deadlines. We analyse the reason for rejection, whether the procedure was lawful and whether bidders were treated equally before bringing the appropriate challenge.
The authority is not paying our invoices: what can we do?
Late payment gives rise to default interest and, beyond that, to a claim for payment. We first file the prior claim, which is often required, then litigate if it has no effect.
We were asked verbally to carry out additional works: are we owed payment?
Proof becomes harder without a written service order, but not impossible. We rebuild the file from performance documents and correspondence, and formalise the claim.
