The Procurement Cooperation in Haugalandet, hereafter called the Contracting Authority, intends to enter into a framework agreement for the provision of travel agency services. Bokn, Etne, Haugesund, Karmøy, Sauda, Suldal, Sveio, Tysnes, Tysvær and Vindafjord are participating in this enquiry. The procurement procedure is an open tender contest, in accordance with the Public Procurements Act from 17.6.2016 and the Public Procurement Regulations, laid down in the Royal Decree dated 12.8.2016 — with later revisions. Tender competitions do not allow negotiations on the tender. After the tenders have been submitted, only clarifications of any uncertainties are allowed. Each municipality is an independent legal entity and the final contract shall therefore be signed by a responsible person in each municipality.
