Dynamic purchasing system for furniture

Background Rogaland county shall establish a new dynamic purchasing system (DPS) for furniture, as the current contract expires. The purchasing system shall be used by Rogaland County and Dental Health Rogaland FKF.

The procurement scheme includes, among other things, school and office furniture, including furnishing areas such as canteens, meeting rooms, waiting rooms, cloakrooms, fitness rooms and social zones.
