Dentons' procurement advice is primarily sought after by global players in the healthcare, IT, transport and defence sectors, while the group also assists public sector players on contracting entity's side, and also features German and European procurement issues. These include procurement and review procedures, particularly relating to large-scale IT and infrastructure projects such as the expansion of the fibre optic network, procurement compliance and procurement bans. Peter Braun, who is well versed in advising on procurement bans imposed by international financial institutions, is one of those who focuses on the latter. Braun jointly heads the practice with Wolfram Krohn, who is frequently instructed by public clients and bidding companies in the transport, IT and healthcare sectors. They are supported by Christian Miercke, who is experienced in procurement and review procedures.
