Framework agreement communication services for science recruitment.

The aim of the procurement is to ensure NTNU, c/o the National Centre for Science Recruitment (NSR) access to relevant competence and capacity within strategic and operative communication assistance, including consultancy, content production, campaigns and further development of digital communication areas. Communication assistance is the framework agreement's main service and is expected to represent most of the activities included in the contract.

As a part of the communication work, the Contracting Authority uses its own websites and digital systems as central communication areas. In order for the communication assistance to be delivered efficiently and predictable, it is necessary that these systems are stable, secure and available over time. The procurement therefore also includes hosting of the Contracting Authority's websites and technical systems (portfolio).

Hosting is included in the framework agreement as a support service for the communication assistance and is provided as a fixed performance of a limited extent. The purpose of the hosting is to support the use and further development of the digital communication surfaces, not to be an independent main delivery.

A complete description of the delivery is in Part II Annex 1 of the Contracting Authority's requirement specifications.
