Project Management
Legal advice on project management for businesses operating in Uzbekistan.
Overview
Project Management advice for businesses operating in Uzbekistan.
Investment and development projects fail on legal grounds more often than on technical ones: an unobtained permit, a land right that does not extend to the intended use, an investment agreement whose obligations the investor cannot in fact perform.
Digests Global Law Firm provides legal support across the life of investment and infrastructure projects in Uzbekistan, from structuring to commissioning.
Our project practice covers:
- Structuring the project and selecting the vehicle through which it will be held
- Land rights — allocation, lease, and the permitted use of the site
- Investment agreements with state bodies, and the incentives and guarantees available under the Investment and Investment Activity legislation
- Permits and approvals, including construction permits and ecological expertise
- Construction contracts, supply and engineering agreements
- Project finance and security arrangements
- Public-private partnership projects
- Disputes arising in the course of a project, including claims against contractors
We identify the approvals a project requires and the sequence in which they must be obtained, so that the legal timetable is known before commitments are made against it.
