Description

This competition concerns a contract for the delivery of a system for digital work environment mapping for Statens arbeidsmiljøinstitutt (STAMI) [the National Institute of Occupational Health (STAMI). STAMI is the national research institute and competence body for the working environment and occupation health sector in Norway. STAMI has recently been strengthened through a national work environment initiative that has been implemented through the new IA agreement 2020-2023, and will contribute to an even better knowledge base for work environment work in Norway. STAMI is also responsible for monitoring the working environment in Norway though the initiative National Monitoring of the Working Environment and Occupation Health (NOA). STAMI also implement working environment mapping i.a. In government businesses for research purposes, and has long experience with developing research-based questionnaires for this type of data. Until now, such mappings have been resource-demanding for the institute, as the system for collection of data has been greatly dependent on manual labour. STAMI will establish a new system for digital collection of working environment data (DAK), where researchers can prepare and implement questionnaire surveys. The system will be used for both one-off surveys and recurring diary surveys, as well as storing the responses to research-oriented work. STAMI envisages a cloud-based system, where the aim is that the first version of the system is ready for use from 1 January 2020. STAMI envisages a step-by-step implementation of DAK from the first production data and throughout 2021. Initially, STAMI wants a standard system with adaptations/configurations. A part of DAK will be used for standard ‘employee surveys’ (MU). This system will make it possible to manage employee surveys to multiple government businesses via a self-service system is included in the technical solution. MU must be able to be ordered from the Norwegian Government Agency for Financial Management's ‘Employer Portal’. The objective is to offer this part of the system to government businesses that want to implement employee surveys themselves. This will be implemented through a third party system that STAMI intends to develop in-house (AIP). AIP will receive orders from the individual government businesses, collect consent from the respondents and start a standard survey in DAK. This means that DAK must have API to make this possible. Tenderers must coordinate any sub-suppliers themselves, so that tenders are submitted for a comprehensive DAK system. For further information refer to Annex 1: The client's needs description.
