Reviewing Tender Documents and Government Bid Packages
We precisely review tender documents and government bid packages for public projects, looking for any qualification condition that could procedurally exclude your bid, and help you prepare a bid fully compliant with technical and financial requirements.
Different Partnership Models Between the Two Sectors
We help investors understand differences between various partnership models, such as build-operate-transfer or build-own-operate, and each model's effect on their long-term obligations.
Risk Allocation in Long-Term Partnership Contracts
We precisely review the risk-allocation clause in partnership contracts, and help you negotiate fair terms before signing, balancing operational and financial risks each party bears.
Joint Financing for Infrastructure Projects
We help investors understand the typical joint financing structure for partnership projects, including coordinating with financing bodies and banks funding this type of long-term project.
Appealing Exclusion or Award Decisions
When your business is excluded from a tender or a competitor wins the award in a way you feel is unfair, we help you file a formal grievance within the defined statutory deadline.
Partnership Project Execution Disputes
We represent clients in any dispute arising with a government body over partnership project execution, whether concerning delayed payments, scope modification, or interpreting an ambiguous clause in the long-term contract.
Long-Term Operational Obligations After Construction
We help investors understand their long-term operational obligations after completing the construction phase, including required maintenance and performance standards throughout the operation and concession period.
Transferring Ownership or Operation at the Concession Period's End
We help parties understand procedures for transferring ownership or operation to the government body at the concession period's end, a sensitive stage needing prior legal planning to avoid disputes at the transition moment.
Joint Bank Financing for Major Partnership Projects
We help investors coordinate with syndicates of banks financing major partnership projects, since these projects often rely on joint bank financing needing precise documentation of project guarantees and the loan repayment mechanism from future operating revenues.
Amending Contract Terms During the Long Operating Period
Partnership contracts spanning twenty or thirty years often need later amendments due to regulatory or operational changes unforeseen at signing; we help parties negotiate these amendments within the original contractual framework without disrupting the project's financial balance.
Dispute Resolution in Government Partnership Contracts
When an execution dispute arises between the investor and the government body, we help parties explore the arbitration path if the contract stipulates it, a path often faster and better suited to these complex technical projects' nature compared to traditional litigation.
