The invitation to tender concerns a framework agreement for plumbing work.

The annual value of the agreement is estimated to be: NOK 4,000,000 excluding VAT. The maximum value for the entire agreement period, including any options and expected price increase: NOK 20,000 000 excluding VAT. The need is uncertain. The value can be both higher and lower, and will depend on, among other things, the contracting authority's needs, activities, budgetary situation and other framework factors.

See the procurement documents for further information.

Lots/groups

Tenders cannot be submitted for parts of the assignment, and alternative tenders are not allowed. The contracting authority considered dividing the assignment but has decided that it is not suitable for this type of procurement.

Framework agreement

The assignment will be regulated by the attached framework agreement with the accompanying standard agreement terms.

The framework agreement will be valid from and including 2023-05-26 until and including 2025-05-25, with an option for the contracting authority for up to 2 years extension, for 12 months at a time.

The contracting authority shall also enter into parallel agreements with two or more tenderers, as long as a sufficient number of qualified tenderers submit tenders.

The contracting authority expects that the tenderer studies the contractual terms and makes the required internal clarifications in such a way that a contract can be signed if awarded.
