    description:
    Innovation Norway needs access to an extensive worldwide company database containing relevant and reliable information. This will make it possible for our employees to identify potential international partners for Norwegian businesses seeking to expand globally, as well as to create guest lists to international business events. We further need to be able to conduct company profiles with more in-depth information on specific companies. This is crucial for evaluating potential collaborations, investment opportunities, etc. The users of this database will be located across the world at our international offices as well as our offices nationally. We estimate that 100 people will need access to the database, and that the total number of exported lists will be around 10000 per year. The number of exported company profiles will be up to 3000 per year. Number of users using the solution at the same time is expected to be below 10 because of the global nature of the usage.

    Flytoget (Oslo Airport Express Train) offers the best transport service to and from Oslo Airport, with emphasis on safety, punctuality and service. Flytoget has a strong brand and has won several awards in corporate social responsibility, sustainability and the environment, tourism, branding and customer satisfaction. As of today, Flytoget has approximately 350 employees and operates 23 train sets. Flytoget has TVMs (ticket vending machines) located in all the stations (aprox. 29) and these are an important part of the distribution mix. Today's TVM have a number of technical components that are approaching end-of-life. In addition, Flytoget plans for adaptations and further development to give travelers a new and innovative experience from a modern TVM. Flytoget has therefore decided that new TVMs will be acquired.

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.
