Governance & joint ventures
Contracting authorities often work together to procure goods, works or services. We advise clients on the variety of different structures and vehicles which can be utilised for effective joint working, and then put together the relevant documentation to effect the chosen structure.
We are experts in memorandum of understandings, inter authority agreements, collaboration agreements, setting up companies (and performing all associated company secretarial work) and creating (and drafting the constitution for) joint committees populated by collaborating local authorities.
Our public procurement lawyers can also advise on the creation of a joint venture company for the contracting authority and the private sector partner to utilise to facilitate the performance of the procured contract.
