Provided by Wiggin and Dana LLP
Wiggin and Dana's nationally recognized Outsourcing and Technology Practice Group serves global suppliers of business process, information technology, and other outsourced services. Our lawyers offer savvy, practical counsel and exemplary service at reasonable cost.
Few outside firms can match our depth of experience. Fewer still focus on suppliers, helping them to win good business, manage change and meet performance and compliance obligations. We know the market, the players (including leading intermediaries) and the interplay among service offerings, contract terms, revenues, risks and margins. We understand the challenges suppliers face and help our clients' sales and delivery teams to build enduring, successful relationships with their customers.
In collaboration with the Privacy and Information Security Group and our clients' security professionals, we help clients to comply with privacy and data security laws, manage and mitigate security risks, and respond to incidents in order to minimize potential exposure while preserving business relationships, reputations and goodwill.
Our transactional team helps global suppliers structure, negotiate, and document the full range of onshore, offshore and near-shore transactions, from initial pursuit through post-contract support and re-negotiation.
