OUR APPROACH

How We Advise on Government Contracts, Procurement and Public-Private Projects

  1. Why Public-Sector Contracting Differs From Ordinary Private Deals

    Public-sector transactions require a different approach from ordinary private contracting. Procurement rules, public-law requirements, budget restrictions, transparency obligations, government approval processes and statutory limits on public authority can materially affect both contract formation and enforcement.

  2. Advising Bidders in Public Tenders

    We advise clients participating in public tenders and procurement procedures, including review of tender requirements, qualification conditions, bid documentation, contractual terms and legal risks associated with the procurement process.

  3. Negotiation and Performance of Government Contracts

    Our lawyers also advise successful bidders and contractors on negotiation and performance of government contracts, amendments, change orders, payment issues, termination and disputes.

  4. Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions

    For major infrastructure and development projects, we advise on public-private partnerships, concessions and other long-term arrangements involving governments, municipalities, state-owned enterprises or public institutions.

  5. Allocating Construction, Financing and Political Risk

    These matters may involve complex allocation of construction, financing, regulatory and political risk and can require government support, guarantees, investment commitments or public funding. We work closely with our Investments & Capital Markets, Banking & Finance and International Arbitration practices where public-sector projects involve project financing, investment protection or dispute resolution mechanisms.

  6. Challenging Procurement Decisions and Exclusions

    We also advise on challenges to procurement decisions, exclusion from tenders, disqualification, debarment and other disputes arising from public procurement processes.

  7. Coordinated Response to Corruption Allegations

    Where allegations of corruption, conflicts of interest or procurement misconduct arise, our Regulatory lawyers coordinate with Averites’ White Collar practice to ensure that contractual, regulatory and investigative risks are addressed together.
