Technical requirements: Prior information notice- Market hearing of requirement specifications and price form.

Boligbygg Oslo KF plans to implement a public procurement in the form of a competition with negotiations for our framework agreement for trade services. The framework agreement consists of two sub-contracts.

Sub-contract 1: Maintenance and renovation assignments, mainly individual flats.

Sub-contract 2: Major maintenance and renovation assignments.

Before the competition has been announced, Boligbygg would like to hold an open market hearing aimed at the supplier market within the construction industry.

In this connection, the provisional requirement specification and price form will be published for consultation. The documents will be available for four weeks and all interested suppliers will be invited to submit written input by the stated deadline.

As part of the preparations, the supplier market is invited to give input on the provisional requirement specifications and price form for sub-contract 1 before the competition is announced.

Tenderers are requested to gather their input in a Word document with clear references to the points they apply in the requirement specification or price form.

Separate requirement specifications and price forms will be prepared for sub-contract 2 and these will be developed per assignment in accordance with mini competition. Boligbygg Oslo KF will, in addition, have a separate technical requirement specification that will apply generally for both sub-contracts. These documents will therefore not be a part of the hearing.
