IT & Telecommunications
Rapid technological change, disruptive technologies and the digitisation of traditional industries are all factors that are increasing the need for businesses in all sectors to innovate and adapt. The effective use of technology is essential in obtaining an edge in a competitive, global marketplace.
Our information technology and telecommunications law expertise encompasses every aspect of technology-based transactions including IT procurement, telecommunications, IT and business process outsourcing (BPO), technology commercialisation and technology disputes.
We act for public and private sector organisations procuring IT and telecommunication services assisting, with RFP and tender processes, supplier due diligence, contact drafting and negotiation and advice on issues such as privacy and data protection or other regulatory compliance issues.
For our IT service and telecommunications provider clients, we advise on bids and tenders, contract drafting and negotiation and regulatory compliance issues. Where technology projects do not deliver, we advise on legal options including contract re- negotiations, disputes including alternative dispute resolution, where appropriate, and litigation.
