Industrial Contracts & Negotiation

Senior support across the full life of industrial agreements, from LOIs and tenders to on-site performance.
Where the Risk Really Sits

Rarely in the signature.

For OEMs, engineered equipment manufacturers, and aftermarket and service businesses, the real risk shows up in the tender assumptions, the liability cap, the service team on a customer's site, and the change order no one documented.

I have spent my career inside Swiss and European industrial multinationals, negotiating these agreements and supporting the teams that deliver them.

The Full Life of an Agreement

From first opportunity to on-site delivery.

I support the full life of an industrial agreement, not just the signature.

  1. 01
    Opportunity and pre-contract

    Whether it starts with a tender or a direct negotiation: bid review, LOIs, and MOUs that set scope, exclusivity, and which commitments are binding.

  2. 02
    Risk assessment

    Mapping the commercial, operational, and compliance risks of the deal: liability, warranties, delivery, on-site exposure, and counterparties.

  3. 03
    Negotiation

    Negotiating the agreement with the business team, turning risk into clear positions and workable terms.

  4. 04
    Contract execution

    Making sure what is signed is what was negotiated: final versions, annexes, order confirmations, and signature, followed by a clear handover to the teams who will deliver it.

  5. 05
    Support during performance and delivery

    Senior support while the contract is performed: obligations, deadlines, change orders, and issues with customers or subcontractors on site, handled before they become disputes.
