Our expert team of procurement lawyers advise contracting authorities and bidders on all aspects of public services.
Our procurement law team is a market leader in Scotland and recognised throughout the UK for its specialist procurement law advice, particularly on major infrastructure, NPD and hub models, health, education, transport and construction.
Accredited specialists in procurement law
We work closely with our clients to ensure they are fully informed about their procurement and public law obligations for infrastructure investments and service delivery, as well as an ongoing public sector focus on social value and sustainability in procurement.
The team features one of Scotland’s few accredited specialists in procurement law, as well as a number who have worked within Central and Local Government so fully understand the public procurement rules and regulations under which our clients operate.
For when disputes arise, our procurement lawyers also provide specialist contentious advice, raising and defending procurement court challenges. We have been involved in the majority of Court of Session procurement cases to date, including judgments that have influenced policy across the UK.
Leading edge public procurement advice
Our work is genuinely ‘leading edge’, and we advise at the intersection of public procurement law, social impact in commissioning and public sector procurement governance and reforms.
We provide strategic advice on how to structure deals compliantly (either within the Regulations or so as to fall out with their remit), technical advice on your tender documents and processes and litigation advice, should your procurement process be the subject of a legal challenge.
We understand that timescales for raising and responding to challenges can be very restrictive and we have the expertise and scale to meet those demands.
