Public Procurement Legal Services in Kenya
Public procurement in Kenya is governed by the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act, 2015 (PPADA) and overseen by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA). The Act establishes detailed procedures for government procurement, including open tendering, restricted tendering, direct procurement, and request for proposals. Suppliers and contractors participating in government tenders must understand these procedures to protect their rights.
LHK Advocates advises suppliers, contractors, and procuring entities on all aspects of public procurement law. We review tender documents, advise on bid preparation compliance, challenge unfair procurement decisions through the PPRA Review Board, and litigate procurement disputes in the High Court.
Procurement disputes are common in Kenya, with allegations of bid rigging, unfair evaluation, and non-compliance with mandatory procedures. The Act provides a structured review mechanism through the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board and the courts. Our team has extensive experience navigating these processes and achieving favourable outcomes for our clients.
