The provision of procurement-related
advice is one of our team's core strengths.
We act for many leading suppliers
and users of IT services, including international financial
institutions, major UK retailers and significant businesses in the
insurance sector. Our team is experienced in the acquisition and
supply of business-crucial products and services. By advising both
the users and the suppliers of these services, we have accumulated
invaluable insight into key drivers of success for both sides. This
equips us to structure deals that achieve the best possible results
for our clients and guide them through every stage of the
procurement process.
We do much more than simply stating
the law. Instead we provide a comprehensive legal service that
includes:
- establishing business cases;
- preparing RFPs and tender documentation;
- structuring procurement and evaluation processes;
- drafting terms sheets, compliance matrices and procurement
aids;
- advising on the shortlisting and down-selection process;
- negotiating with both customers and suppliers; and
- finalising the contract and schedules.
Our team has worked on some of the
largest UK deals in recent years. We also work on cross-border
projects and are able to call upon our own international offices as
well as the expertise of an extensive network of contacts.
Projects we advise on range from IT
and outsourcing to industrial products, 4GL logistics, business
processes, aviation and aerospace parts, facilities management and
office equipment, automotive parts, food and beverages, and
professional services. By combining our
unparalleled experience with a focused commercial approach, we seek
to address all legal concerns in a cost-efficient manner.
