In order to cover the agency's needs for ongoing maintenance and operation of buildings and areas, Bergen Municipality, through the Agency for Buildings and Property, intends to enter into a framework agreement as soon as possible with one tenderer for the provision of services within the inspection, renewal, and maintenance of pipes.

Other services that are naturally related to the disciplines in this framework agreement may be added if needed during the contract period. Assignments will not include the replacement of water and sewage pipelines that are covered by another framework agreement, or the are carried out as a separate procurement. The contracting authority also has other continuing contracts for services which, for some assignments, will border or overlap the assignments in this contract. The contracting authority will, in such cases, try to use the contracts in the most appropriate way. Furthermore, the contracting authority reserves the right not to use the framework agreement for the execution of major or complex projects. The contracting authority can hold separate contests for these cases.
