Dutch term or phrase: in normaal acquisitief opzicht
... dat XXX in elk geval gehouden is om de kosten die YYY heeft gemaakt in het kader van de onderhandelingen met XXX en die evident uitstijgen boven datgene wat *in normaal acquisitief opzicht* naar verkeersopvattingen van YYY mocht worden verwacht, te vergoeden.

This will probably require paraphrasing, since "normal acquisitive respect/sense" is meaningless. Can anyone explain what this actually means?

during a normal procurement process
Explanation:
XXX is liable for YYY's costs over and above those which it would have incurred during what, in standard business practice, would be regarded as a normal procurement process. There may be a more concise way of saying it, but that's the idea.
