RUSSIAN SUPPLIER OF FEDERAL SCALE PRODUCTS FOR THE NEEDS OF STATE INSTITUTIONS IN THE FIELD OF MEDICINE

Represented a company on abuse of authority in preparing documents and concluding government contracts for the supply of medical equipment at an inflated cost, resulting in significant material damage to the Ministry of Health of one of the regions. Despite the obvious gross violations of public procurement rules, it was possible to prove the innocence of the Client, and thus achieve the goal. The defense position was based on temporary, low-quality legislation on procurement of medical equipment during the pandemic. The reputation in the market of medical equipment supplies for state needs was preserved, because bringing the General Director to responsibility jeopardized the entire business due to the relevant regulation of the state order.
