Our team of procurement law experts is familiar with European and national procurement law. We provide high-quality, quick, pragmatic legal assistance, focussed on turning legal problems into solutions. We have a great deal of experience in advising on and supervising procurement processes and tendering procedures. We also regularly litigate in procurement disputes, both in summary and regular proceedings. We also have experience in summary proceedings before the Court of Justice of the EU.
Our Procurement lawyers
Our team of procurement law specialists acts for contracting authorities: the National Police (the team has provided legal support for the procurement of service weapons and vehicles), ProRail, various provinces, municipalities, water boards, educational institutions and (academic) hospitals. We also advise businesses that are tendering.
We have a great deal of experience with tenders in healthcare, ICT and the waste sector, and with tenders for office furniture, cleaning, catering, construction and public and student transport. We regularly advise on complex procurement law issues, such as public-public cooperation (horizontal cooperation and quasi-in-house issues, the granting of exclusive rights), other exceptions to the tendering obligation and various types of development zoning.
We’d be happy to help you. Please contact us with any questions on:
- the obligation to tender
- exceptions to the tender obligation
- the obligation to put out a tender in the event of a below-threshold contract
- drawing up an invitation to tender
- drafting and reviewing tender documents
- drawing up and evaluating selection criteria, award criteria and grounds for exclusion

- whether or not to implement (material) changes
- tender disputes
- private tenders
