LUTZ | ABEL RECHTSANWALTS PARTG MBB's procurement team, led by Mathias Mantler, takes instructions from both sides of the procurement process, working closely with the firm's public law and real estate teams to tackle major infrastructure procurement projects. Mantler is often tapped by public bodies requiring assistance with the structuring of their tenders, in addition to advising individual bidders and consortia on their proposals for healthcare, infrastructure and security contracts. Anne-Christine Wieler bridges the divide between procurement and construction law, and is particularly adept at assisting public health bodies with the procurement of a variety of services.
