Public procurement and related processes are often complicated, with several parallel dimensions to consider for those who want to be successful. With our expertise and experience, we can offer you comprehensive support, whether you are a tenderer or a contracting authority. We also regularly organise training courses on purchasing and procurement law.<\/p>\n

At Glimstedt’s offices in Gothenburg and Kungsbacka, we have extensive experience of assisting public authorities, municipal companies and tenderers in public procurement. We have been advisors in procurements worth billions, but we have also worked as procurement managers in the public sector. This gives us in-depth knowledge of how a politically controlled business should and must function in terms of regulations, administrative culture and organisation.<\/p>\n

In public procurement, tenderers must fulfil all mandatory requirements in order not to risk losing the deal. Public procurement is regulated by a complex set of rules (LOU, LUF, LOV, LUK and LUFS) and involves many complex issues. We have extensive experience in reviewing tenders to reduce the risk of rejection.<\/p>\n

Our advice includes reviewing and interpreting requirements, helping to formulate questions for the client, interpreting contract terms and conditions and supporting negotiations or contacts with the client. We offer ongoing advice throughout the procurement process, including document drafting, contracts and security issues.<\/p>\n

We provide concrete guidance on how the deal can continue to develop during the contract period and help you with what changes can be made to public contracts. We support our clients in all aspects of procurement law.<\/p>\n

By law, the state, municipalities, authorities and county councils are obliged to procure goods and services according to specific guidelines. Publicly owned companies, foundations, associations and organisations are also subject to public procurement regulations.<\/p>\n

The contracting authorities must be impartial and select suppliers based on the nature of the goods or services being procured. The choice of supplier should be made on a business basis and determined by which supplier offers the best goods or services under the most favourable terms.<\/p>\n

We assist in dispute resolution for all types of procurement-related legal issues and disputes. We can act as counsel in review proceedings, as well as in cases involving damages for breaches of procurement law and procurement-related penalties.<\/p>\n
