What to watch for
- School transport is organised by the county authorities, and patient travel by the health trusts.
- Since 2024, Norwegian buyers must normally weight climate and environment at least 30% in the award criteria, or set climate requirements in the specification. Vehicle emissions often decide it in transport.
- Contracts often run for several years, so missing one competition can lock you out for a long time.
How Tenderen helps
- Alerts on division 60 filtered by region.
- Market Radar shows contracts nearing their end date so you can prepare before the re-tender (Pro).
- AI extraction of requirements and award criteria from the tender documents (Pro and Enterprise).
Choose something else if
- You need route planning or price calculation; Tenderen does not do either.
