Title : Framework agreement for plumbing services for Tvedestrand municipality.
Description : The objective and content of the procurement: The contracting authority needs to enter into a framework agreement for plumbing services carried out on the municipality ́s properties. The framework agreement is for plumbing services that shall be used in both the maintenance and investment budgets. The procurement includes, among other things, the following services: • Maintenance and onerous work • Planned maintenance jobs and projects of variable sizes. • Emergency repairs • New building There will, however, also be the delivery of some material, as in many cases it will be appropriate that the tenderer has the material necessary for the execution of the assignment in question. Although the procurement comprises some material, it is emphasised that this contract does not give any exclusiveness on the delivery of such material, and that the Contracting Authority is not otherwise obliged to procure materials from the tenderer. The contracting authority is, thus, free to purchase materials from our other framework agreements and still use the contract supplier for work that shall be carried out without mark-up in the agreed prices for work. See part II Annex 1 requirement specifications for further information on the contents of the procurement. Contract type and extent: The estimated annual extent is approx. NOK 1 million excluding VAT, but the contract will be valid for a total amount of NOK 8 million excluding VAT over the lifetime of the agreement. The estimated scope is based on previous amounts and the expected future need is not binding for the contracting authority.

Contract period: The framework agreement(s) shall be signed for 1 year, with an option for the Contracting Authority for an extension for 1+1+1 year, to a total of four years. The contract(s) will be valid from 1 October or the date of contract signing if this occurs later.
