Procurement

We have advised on a variety of major procurement projects, including contracts for the supply of goods and equipment (with and without installation), master supply agreements, distribution agreements and contracts for long term rental and maintenance of equipment.

We are familiar with the key issues of concern to vendors, including caps on liability, managing delay risk, cost escalation provisions, retention of title, fitness for purpose, performance guarantees, hedging, protection of intellectual property rights and so on.

We have extensive experience acting for purchasers and hirers of heavy equipment, including rolling stock, mining equipment and material handling systems.
