Master Class: Public Procurement for Contracts & Contract Modifications

Master Class: Public Procurement for Contracts & Contract Modifications - Pictures Events 2023 2 1

State-owned and commercial entities, operating in the utilities sector, such as gas, electric transport, and water firms, are obliged to apply the EU procurement policy when they purchase goods, services and works to pursue an activity in one of these sectors. The rules adopted with the Concessions Directive allow public policy makers to use public contracts and concessions more effectively, modernise the public sector and contribute to a more equitable and sustainable model of growth.

This event offers an in-depth exploration of public procurement contracts, with a particular focus on contract management and the legal and practical challenges surrounding contract modifications. Designed for professionals working in or alongside public procurement, the course provides a comprehensive overview of key principles, regulatory frameworks, and practices that govern the life cycle of public contracts.

Participants will benefit from high-quality, intensive lessons delivered by renowned speakers with extensive academic and practical experience in the field. The programme combines clear theoretical foundations with practical insights, ensuring that complex legal concepts are presented in an accessible and engaging manner. The course concludes with a hands-on case study and an interactive problem-solving session. By the end of the programme, participants will have strengthened their understanding of public procurement contracts and enhanced their ability to address contractual challenges with confidence and precision.

The full programme will be published shortly.

Participants receive a certificate upon participation.

Methodology

A Master Class is a high-level event for professionals and officials involved in Public Procurement. The purpose of the Master Class is to review important developments in Public Procurement case law and the decisional practice of the European Commission, assess their implications for the Member States and public authorities and to solve your problems in Public Procurement cases. Participants are encouraged to submit a summary of the problem or case they want to present for discussion in advance. This information will of course be treated confidentially.

The sessions will combine presentations, case studies and discussion on practical issues. You will have ample opportunities to present your own issues and discuss them with speakers and participants from other countries.

Review and Assessment

On the first day, you receive an expert review of the latest Court rulings and Commission decisions. Seminal judgments and decisions are analysed in depth. The analysis identifies how principles are applied in specific situations, delineates possible exceptions and draws out the implications for Public Procurement policies.

Problem Solving

The second day is devoted to cases and questions submitted by participants. Public Procurement problems and other issues from the daily practice of participants are discussed and difficulties resolved.

Best Practices

On both days, the format of this advanced small-scale Master Class enables you to consider wider issues of relevance to officials and practitioners involved in Public Procurement. You can exchange information and experience with professionals from other countries.

Master Class materials are available for download after the event.
