Public Procurement, Concession Contracts & PPP
Public projects in motion
Our team comprises lawyers recognised for their in-depth and specialised expertise in public procurement, concession contracts and public-private partnerships (PPP). We view public procurement not merely as a compliance exercise, but as a strategic lever for innovation, sustainable growth, and the delivery of tangible public value.
Our multidisciplinary team advises both contracting authorities and economic operators, combining legal rigour with practical insight across Belgian and EU frameworks to ensure compliance, drive efficiency, and support strategic objectives. We also represent clients before the Belgian Council of State, all levels of the Belgian judiciary, and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
