Even though Thomas Jamrath, senior legal counsel at Siemens, is not based in the Munich head office is he able to masterfully stir and direct things from Berlin. Observers note how he ‘has set up a European network of procurement lawyers and emerged as the go-to person for all public procurement matters’. This has not been an easy task in a company with 370,000 employees. But Jamrath has his fans who are certain that he will be able to ‘significantly raise the status and importance of procurement law and tendering procedure participations within the company’. The market watches these promising efforts closely as other companies usually ‘focus similar efforts on the areas of antitrust or compliance’.
