The government procurement process has its fair share of rules and regulations. You need a legal team that can anticipate and advise on
any issues that may arise in the procurement process.
We regularly assist public authorities and private sector owners with developing and adopting a wide range of procurement models, plans and strategies, including:
- traditional formal call for tenders
- structured requests for expressions of interest

- request for proposals
- structured auctions
Our experience with relevant contracts, deliverables and other legal requirements includes:
- working with clients to integrate a variety of project agreements for a streamlined project delivery approach
- preparing procurement and contract documents and agreements
- counselling clients on dispute avoidance, early dispute resolution and other strategies
- advising on project tender issues, including drafting tender documents to ensure the unique nature of institutional construction is adequately addressed
We represent businesses throughout the procurement and contracting stages, including:
