2.1 Procedure

Title : Office furniture and fixtures
Description : A nationwide framework agreement shall be signed for the Norwegian Customs, hereafter called the Contracting Authority, within the agreement area office furniture and fixtures. The aim is to procure furniture that covers the contracting authority ́s continual need for the delivery of office furniture and fixtures and that is at the same time environmentally friendly with a focus on re-use and durable materials. Increased use of e-commerce is also expected. Office furniture means furniture and fixtures for office work stations, meeting room furniture, suites, furniture for storage and other types of furniture and fixtures that naturally belong to public entities. The contracting authority is facing a reorganisation that will affect several of the premises. This will include ups and downscaling, relocation and/or new establishment of premises for approx. 225 employees divided between planned projects in Kongsvinger, Polmak, Stjørdal, Kristiansand, Larvik and Svalbard. The projects will include re-use services and new procurements of furniture and fixtures for the projects. As defined by Annex 11 - the Customs Agency's Workplace Concept, a principle of shared office space will be implemented at all of the country's locations. The concept for shared office space focuses on optimal area utilisation, sustainable solutions and an activity based workplace. Orders will be made as needed, both for planned projects, other projects that may arise and individual orders for the Contracting Authority ́s locations. See Annex 12 - the Norwegian Customs's location overview of where the Contracting Authority is located.
