The contracting authority wants an evaluation of Valgdirektoratet's [the Norwegian Directorate of Elections'] delivery of services to support the implementation of elections by municipalities and county municipalities. It is desirable to shed light on whether the co-operation between the Norwegian Directorate of Elections and municipalities and county has functioned satisfactorily, and whether the Norwegian Directorate of Elections has solved the tasks related to the implementation of elections in an appropriate manner. This cooperation is primarily connected to the use of EVA, training, user-support and information.

The engaged party will also implement a survey that will be sent out to municipalities and counties after the election (the election implementation survey). The survey is intended to collect statistics on election implementation in municipalities and counties. In this survey it is preferable to have a comparison basis, and multiple topics repeat themselves therefore at each election.
