         In recent years the following interpretation assignments have been carried out per annum within municipal entities:

         Levanger had approx. 3000 interpretation assignments in 2017, approx. equally split between telephone and turn-outs.

         Snåsa procured interpretation services for approx. 240 000 NOK in 2017.

         Steinkjer procured interpretation services for approx. 950 000 NOK in 2017.

         Verran procured interpretation services for approx. 97 000 NOK in 2017.

         The total economic extent of the Framework Agreement is estimated to be approx. 3 100 000 NOK per annum. The amount is an estimate and is not binding for the Contracting Authority.

         Municipal organisations that need interpreters include: health centres, general practitioners,child welfare, adult education, NAV, crisis centres, emergency doctor surgeries the refugee service, schools, nurseries, care institutions, etc.

         The municipalities’ different organisations have different needs in relation to interpreter methods (telephone, in person, written translation). In some circumstances emergency assignments may be relevant.

         A Framework Agreement will be signed that will apply for all three municipalities, based on the award with the chosen tenderer, after an evaluation and award. Steinkjer will be responsible for the follow-up of the contract for the entire contract period.

         See Part 2, requirement specifications, for further information.

         Lots and alternative tenders

         Tenders cannot be submitted for parts of the assignment, and alternative tenders are not allowed.

         The Contracting Authority has considered dividing the assignment in accordance with PPR §19-4, and has determined that it is most appropriate to have one framework agreement for interpretation services.
