Our Digital Transformation Team provides regular and individual legal services with respect to digital transformation processes. We provide support in technological change processes in the end-to-end formula, beginning with consulting of purchase and contract models with IT suppliers, through preparation of contract documentation, negotiations and regular legal advice during performance and implementation of technological change in organisations.
IT contracts - Agile & Waterfall
We offer comprehensive legal support for the area of cooperation with the suppliers of IT solutions (vendor management). Our services include: consulting at the stage of creating offer enquiries sent to the IT suppliers, selection of the optimum purchase and contract model, preparation of the contractual documentation, negotiations and regular legal advice during performance of the project by the IT supplier. Contract mechanisms are created in traditional model (Waterfall), hybrid model or the model adjusted for the projects developed in agile methodologies (Agile).
We advise on the selection of settlement method with the IT suppliers which would be compatible with the agile model, which allows improvement of time and costs of the implemented IT projects (contracting for Agility).

We advise for the needs of processes connected with the customers using cloud solutions. In particular, we offer risk analysis together with recommendations of their mitigation and preparing a roadmap enabling the customers to conduct an effective transition to cloud services (cloud transition legal roadmap). In the transition processes, we support our customers in relations with the suppliers of cloud solutions conducting negotiations of contractual conditions offered by the service providers.
