Background Harstad municipality and the collaborating municipalities shall enter into a new framework agreement for advertising services as a result of the existing framework agreement for job advertisements expiring. The municipalities have a continual need for effective recruitment advertising, as well as the execution of statutory notices in the press and/or public registers. The objective of the procurement is to ensure an overall, predictable and cost efficient advertising process with good traceability, from ordering and production to publication and documentation. The supplier market also requests that the municipalities need to use more channels and formats (digital surfaces and print) and that the ordering and follow-up process shall support the municipalities ́ internal work flow. Harstad municipality is the contracting authority on behalf of the municipalities covered by the procurement. Emphasis is put on the fact that the participating municipalities each bear responsibility for their obligations in the execution of the framework agreement. The requirements cannot be applied to the municipalities together, but only against the municipality that has resulted in any contract deviation. Other municipal entities, including all public law bodies and organisations established by Harstad municipality, shall have the right, but are not obliged, to enter into this agreement. Description of the assignment The procurement comprises a framework agreement for the purchase, production and publication of job advertisements, announcements and equivalent announcements in relevant channels. The agreement shall cover announcements in both digital and printed areas, including relevant trade and trade media, newspapers, job portals, social media and public registers when required. The delivery shall include the necessary production support connected to the design and adaptation of advertising material, as well as the delivery of documentation of publication and available statistics/reporting for completed campaigns and indentations. Furthermore, the tenderer shall offer a web-based ordering and management system that supports ordering, approval and follow-up and which provides a total overview of status and history. The system shall also be able to support integration with the municipality ́s recruitment/HR system.
