The IT & Telecommunications sector is characterised by its continuous product innovations, which are driven by both demand and supply. There are technical developments and innovations, but also changing user needs and desires, making it key for providers and purchasers in this sector to make clear arrangements with each other. After all, in this industry the processes are often of a critical nature to the business, and downtime is expensive.

The sector is experiencing an increasing need for standardisation of the terms and conditions, and legal advice is also sought in negotiation procedures to identify and rule out risks.

Marxman provides advice in this sector on a wide range of subjects, from infrastructure to purchasers. Its clientele includes companies engaged in designing and installing infrastructure, but also one of the largest international suppliers in the field of the manufacture, implementation and installation of hardware and software. Marxman also works for software developers, builders of web sites and web-based applications, and ICT service companies.

Our diverse consultancy services comprise document standardisation, assisting in contract negotiations and preparing contracts, and preparing SLAs. Naturally, we also litigate when disputes arise in this sector and we have broad experience in alternative dispute resolution, for example through SGOA.
