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. Specific types: ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_COMPETITION, DYNAMIC_PURCHASING_SCHEME, QUALIFICATION_SCHEME, ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_INTENT, PRE_ANNOUNCEMENT, ADVISORY_NOTICE, NOTICE_ON_BUYER_PROFILE, ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT, CHANGE_OF_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT, CANCELLED_OR_MISSING_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT. Use ["COMPETITION"] + statuses=["ACTIVE"] for open tenders.

    Anskaffelse av rammeavtale for overfallsalarm
    description:
    Anskaffelsens formål er å inngå rammeavtale om kjøp av overfallsalarmer til Velferdsetatens rusinstitusjoner. Rammeavtale skal inngås med én leverandør. Rammeavtalen gjelder kjøp av overfallsalarmer med tilhørende utstyr der det skal monteres nye anlegg. Velferdsetaten kan ha behov for nye anlegg både i nybygg og i eksisterende bygg hvor det ikke er et eksisterende alarmplattformanlegg fra før. Antatt omfang på avtalen vil være 4-6 millioner i løpet av en fire års periode, men det konkrete omfanget vil avhenge av fremtidig behov for overfallsalarm hos de ulike institusjonene og budsjettrammene til Velferdsetaten. Oppdragsgiver garanterer ikke for avrop på rammeavtalen.

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.
