Public Procurement
The quality of our public procurement practice is recognised as being outstanding, offering innovative solutions tailored to clients’ goals and needs.

We support our clients with new and complex procurement projects – from major infrastructure, energy, IT or defence & security projects to health sector tenders. In review procedures we can act on behalf of any of the parties – applicants, contracting entities, and intervening third parties – not only at national level, but also before the Commission and the Community courts.
