The Norwegian Film Institute (NFI) shall, with the help of modern technology, be more efficient and user orientated, in accordance with debureaucratisation and the efficiency reform.

In the Film Notification, Notification Paper 30, A Future Orientated Film Policy, reference is made to the reform and that NFI, as a government administration body, shall make operations more efficient with e-management systems.

NFI currently manages a number of grant schemes with extensive rules. The number of grant schemes means that the entire grant management has become less efficient and the number of applications requiring individually adjusted reasons mean that more and more resources must be used for case handling.

NFI is now working on new regulations with the accompanying grant schemes. The entity shall, thus, develop a more efficient case handling system with an accompanying application portal and form system. The aim of this procurement is to get:

— A more efficient application process and grant management;

— Better and more secure information and dialogue with applicants;

— A more flexible system with cost efficient options for change and further development.
