Procurement Litigation Masterclass
The Mandela Institute proudly presents an exclusive in-person Procurement Litigation Masterclass, led by experienced practitioners in procurement law. This masterclass is designed to provide legal professionals, public sector practitioners, consultants, and other stakeholders with practical insight into the key principles, recent developments, and litigation strategies shaping procurement disputes in South Africa.
Topics include:
- Introduction to procurement litigation: common practical mistakes and best practices
- Interdicts in procurement disputes, including interim and final interdicts, urgency, the OUTA principle, and judicial discretion
- Procurement reviews: Rule 6 versus Rule 53 proceedings, legality reviews, delays, review grounds, and just and equitable remedies
- The importance of exhausting internal remedies before approaching the courts
- Alternative remedies
- Claims for compensation
More than a learning opportunity, this interactive masterclass provides a unique platform for participants to engage directly with leading procurement law experts, exchange perspectives with fellow practitioners, and explore the practical challenges that arise in procurement disputes. Through meaningful discussion, real-world examples, and professional networking opportunities, attendees will gain valuable insights that extend beyond the formal programme and enhance both their litigation skills and professional practice.
