Technical requirements: Difi's aim is to give good and concrete guidance in green procurements. In 2017 we will develop a technical system for concrete environment guidance and a set of criteria. This shall be launched with content in the fourth quarter of 2017. We need assistance to develop this content. In particular, we need assistance for the development of a set of criteria for buildings and transport and evaluation models and tools.
The procurement consists of three separate deliveries. Tenders can be submitted for one or more of the lots. Difi will set high requirements for expertise within the following contract areas:
Public transport procurements or procurements that involve transport have an impact on the environment that we would like to minimise. Technology is developing fast and we now have electric ferries, electric buses and other vehicles with different forms of more environmentally friendly propulsion technology. We cannot predict future transport needs or technology, but a combination of different systems must be used to reach the environmental targets. Public services such as public transport, district nursing, patient transport, waste collection, road maintenance and winter stand-by ought to front and influence this development. There ought to be concrete requirements for, amongst other things, energy use and emissions.
Difi will develop a set of environment criteria within transport during 2017 and 2018. A minimum of one set of environment criteria is planned to be completed for the fourth quarter of 2017. The first set of criteria that shall be developed will be within the light vehicle category. Other areas that can have sets of criteria developed are transport services (CPV code 60000000), waste transport (CPV code 90000000) and transport equipment (CPV code 34000000). Difi will manage the criteria development work itself, but there is a need for environmental assistance, assistance with lifecycle assessments and calculations, as well as assistance with implementing the process.
Most of the need for assistance from consultants for the first set of criteria will be in June, August, September and October. I.e. we expect a 30-50 % position in June and a 70-100 % position in August, September and October.
Assistance with the development of further sets of environment criteria within transport, e.g. transport services, waste transport and transport equipment, as mentioned in the assignment. Assistance can also be needed for the development of subject content for anskaffelser.no, possibly the production of a tool etc. for green procurements within transport.
Assistance with the development of a set of environment criteria and guidelines for buildings, sites and property.
Difi would like to develop environment criteria that can be used for the procurement of buildings and services for buildings. The criteria are meant as a tool for public contracting authorities, so that they can easily set environment requirements and criteria in their procurements.
Surveys carried out by Difi show that environment criteria are rarely used in public buildings, sites and property (BAE) procurements. We are now carrying out a zero point analysis for BAE, which will form the basis for measuring further development.
Difi will develop a set of environment criteria for buildings in 2017. Difi will manage the criteria development work itself, but there is a need for environment assistance in the field and assistance in implementing the process.

Assistance with the development of several sets of environment criteria within buildings, sites and property. Assistance with the development of other guidelines for green procurements within buildings, sites and property.
