How Doffin Procurement Works

Public buyers across Norway advertise the bulk of their contracts through the Norwegian notification database for public procurement (doffin.no). Tender documents are issued in Norwegian, and Doffin carries notices from central government down to local agencies. Because internationally-funded projects in Norway may additionally follow a financier's procurement rules, tracking Doffin together with development-bank sources on BidsFactory gives the most complete view of the market.
