With public procurement contracts I’ve got the impression it is always difficult to get paid.
Public purchasers are subject to payment deadlines of between 30 and 60 days. Often it takes longer because I haven’t followed the payment procedure.
Worse, I have noticed that penalties and deductions are applied…Once again, in making your complaint you must follow applicable procedures or you may run the risk of losing your entitlement to challenge such payments.
Your public procurement lawyer can help you to get paid for your services more quickly.
