Services
Technology Procurement
The technology procurement process can be complex and if scope and deliverables are not properly documented, and the contract implementation is not managed, can result in failure. Orbital Law can assist with the various stages of the procurement process, from the preparation of RFIs and RFPs, to contract negotiation and contract management post signature.
Feasibility Studies
When developing new emerging technology, whether it is developed from scratch, or utilising third-party code or applications, it is essential that a feasibility study is conducted, to identify any contractual, legal or regulatory roadblocks to commercialisation of the technology.
Risk Analysis
Where clients have already developed an application or solution but do not have a clear view of their risk exposure, we provide a risk analysis and report, reviewing all elements of the technology or services, contracts end-to-end (suppliers and customer contracts) and compliance. Clients can then make an informed decision on the mitigation actions to be taken based on our recommendations.
Legal and Regulatory Compliance
General advisory service on all areas of legal and regulatory compliance, including working with clients with data privacy impact assessments during the design and development of technology.
