The Norwegian Government Agency for Financial Management (DFØ), is, in cooperation with the Directorate for Administration and ICT (Difi), holding an open tender contest for the procurement of an operations supplier for a joint learning platform for government entities; the operations platform. From 1.1. 2020 DFØ will be the contract owner of the operations platform.
The operations platform is a tool for achieving the goal of efficient and more strategic competence development in the government.
We would like professional operation and development of the joint service that takes care of users' needs in a satisfactory way, so that the government can benefit from economies of scale through sharing and reuse of digital training resources and entities do not make separate procurements of digital learning platforms (learning management system — LMS) and simple author tools.
The current operations contract for the operations platform is about to expire. We therefore need to enter into a contract with a tenderer who can continue to operate the platform.
