Types of work

Leyla acts as a consultant, sparring partner, counsel and litigation lawyer for contracting authorities. Frequently asked questions:

• Do we as an organisation have to call for tenders? Read: does our organisation qualify as a contracting authority or institution governed by public law?
• What is the correct tendering procedure for our contract? A traditional one (public and restricted) or a special one (for instance, involving a competitive dialogue procedure and an innovation partnership)?
• Can we award the contract one to one? For instance, through quasi-internal procurement or public-public or public-private partnerships.
• We are keen to include aspects of corporate social responsibility, sustainability (including the Europe 2020 goals and Green Deals) and innovation in our tender. What is the best way to go about it?
• In the care sector, would it be best to opt for an open-house model, administrative tendering or rather a procedure for social and other specific services (a so-called SAS procedure)?
• We have received a complaint. What is the best way to deal with it?
• An unsuccessful tenderer is objecting to the provisional award decision. What now?
• We want to amend the tender agreement. Is this allowed or does this qualify as a substantial amendment, and therefore not permitted?
