Oppenhoff's client base is largely made up of bidding companies that it advises on IT procurement and digitisation issues as well as transaction-related procurement compliance issues. The group also represents clients in large award and review procedures for procurement in the defense and security industry. This corresponds to its sectoral focus on defense, IT and technology. In December 2023, former practice head Heiko Höfler joined PwC Legal (PricewaterhouseCoopers Legal AG Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft), whereupon Holger Hofmann, who is experienced in environmental-related matters and review procedures, took over the practice lead.
