Details

The Contracting Authority needs a framework agreement for the hire of a lorry with drivers. The aim of the procurement is to ensure sufficient capacity for transporting snow, gravel, gritting sand etc. primarily for Trondheim city operations ́s departments Veg og Idrett, park and forest (IPS). The need for hire will vary depending on weather conditions and activity level. In the event of normal operation, the tenderer must have the capacity to provide a minimum of five (5) lorries with drivers simultaneously at call-offs, within fixed response times. Tenderers are free to solve this by using their own vehicles or sub-suppliers. The case number for the associated market dialogue (2026 service contract for the hire of a lorry with drivers - Market Dialogue) is 2026/35291.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this transport & logistics opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
