Description
Auto-translated from noBackground
Follo Ren IKS needs to enter into a new agreement for accounting and payroll services because the current agreement is expiring. The procurement will ensure a secure, stable, and professional delivery that supports correct and timely reporting.
Follo Ren IKS is an inter-municipal company that prepares annual financial statements in accordance with the Accounting Act, generally accepted accounting principles, and applicable regulations for inter-municipal companies, including KOSTRA reporting. The business is mainly covered by the self-cost regulation and is not subject to tax, while the commercial part is taxable and must be reported separately. This requires solid expertise in accounting, payroll, public reporting, and the distinction between the self-cost area and commercial operations.
Follo Ren IKS has 44 permanent employees and approximately 40 on-call substitutes and temporary employees. The turnover in 2025 was NOK 178.77 million within the self-cost area and NOK 11.48 million within the commercial operations. Suppliers should therefore have an understanding of the company's size, organization, and reporting complexity.
The assignment is to be performed using Follo Ren IKS's system, Visma BNXT. Further information about the company can be found at www.folloren.no. The annual report for 2025 is available at www.folloren.no/om-follo-ren/publikasjoner.
