Procurement & Contracting
We are government procurement and contracting experts, whether it is a contract for the construction of a road or hospital or the procurement of complex technology solutions. We provide sound, commercially savvy advice for government procurements and contracts whether they are big or small.
Our Procurement & Contracting Expertise
At Maddocks, we have exceptional experience advising public and private sector clients, including all levels of government, on their procurement and contracting needs.
We advise on all stages of the procurement and contracting process. Our advice is commercially and politically astute. Our assistance includes advising on procurement strategies and market engagement (including the tendering process), drafting procurement documentation and contracts, assisting with legal compliance issues, negotiating contracts, and advising on performance and contract management.
Maddocks has advised on some of the largest, most complex, and significant projects undertaken by Australian governments. Our experience has helped drive the desired outcomes of major projects by our public and private sector clients.
We also manage contractual disputes that may arise and prepare general and project-specific contract management manuals and documentation.
We are a market-leader when it comes to technology procurement and contracting. Our Technology Procurement Handbook, a guide to any customer who is looking to engage a technology product or service vendor, can be downloaded here.
