ParameterRequirementJSON typeDescription
queryoptionalstringFree-text search (Norwegian or English), e.g. "IT-drift", "snørydding", "rammeavtale konsulent". Start here.
typesoptionalunionFilter by notice type. Parent types: PLANNING, COMPETITION, RESULT.

    description:
    Konkurransen gjelder levering av bo og omsorgstilbud for brukere med psykisk funksjonssvikt og/eller tilleggsproblematikk i landlige omgivelser (gårder). Formålet med kontrakten er å regulere rettslige og praktiske forhold vedrørende kjøp av plass i botilbud på gårder eller tilsvarende for personer med psykisk helsesvikt og/eller mildere tilleggsproblematikk. Tjenesten skal gi et fullverdig tilbud i form av bolig med heldøgns omsorgstjenester samt mulighet for sysselsetting på dagtid i regi av gården. Beboers ressurser skal gjennom opphold i botilbud på gårder eller tilsvarende styrkes på en måte som reduserer behov for mer alvorlige inngrep senere. Målet for beboeren er gjennom målrettede tiltak og aktiviteter å oppnå økt stabilitet relatert til sykdom og livsførsel. For en beskrivelse av deltagere i anskaffelsen, se punkt 1.1.1.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_doffin lookup

  1. Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
  2. Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
  3. Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
