Kastell’s public procurement team offers legal advice on all aspects of this practice area. We provide clear and straightforward advice, always bearing our clients’ commercial interests in mind. The team focuses on litigation related to public procurement, combining extensive knowledge of the substantive public procurement rules with expertise in dispute resolution. This makes us unique. We also advise on public procurement procedures.
Kastell can assist with, inter alia:
Administrative litigation: Review of procurement procedures and validity of agreements
Over the years, our team has advised on more than 200 procurement reviews, spanning virtually all sectors. Many of the reviews have concerned large and complex procurement processes.
Procurement procedure
Kastell’s team has extensive experience of assisting both public authorities and suppliers in connection with procurement procedures, including in some of the most complex procurement procedures in Sweden.
- On the procuring side we provide assistance by, inter alia, producing procurement documentation, including draft agreements, providing support in negotiations, advising on the procurement process, and more.
- On the supplier side, we provide risk analyses, review procurement documentation and tenders, advise on negotiations and more.
Civil litigation: Procurement-related damages claims and contract disputes
As a result of Kastell’s extensive dispute resolution experience, the team is regularly instructed on claims for damages arising from infringements of the procurement rules. For example, the team represented the claimant in a litigation which resulted in the highest damages ever awarded as a consequence of an illegal direct award. We are also regularly instructed in disputes regarding the interpretation and implementation of agreements entered into following a public procurement.
Ongoing advice
In addition to our focus areas, we provide ongoing advice to our clients. This can be anything from miscellaneous questions over the telephone to complex legal investigations.
