Orkland municipality owns four small houses located on Flata 7-13. The residences were constructed in 2017/2018 as prefabricated sets of buildings with a construction method that is specially adapted to these buildings. In 2025 there was a burns in one of the residences that has resulted in a need for extensive repairs and replacement of parts of the construction. The work involves, among other things, disassembly, assessment and reuse of existing building parts as well as the integration of new components into the existing structure. Orkland municipality refers to a similar event in 2023, in which the residence was completely damaged as a result of a fire. After the procurement process was completed, the original erect company was awarded a contract for the reconstruction of the residence. The execution gave the municipality experience that the tenderer has special competence in the construction and development of the buildings. The municipality estimates that the assignment can be awarded directly to the original tenderer, as this has the necessary technical competence and in-depth knowledge of the building system. Furthermore, it is considered that this will bring significant advantages connected to: • the remaining guarantee on the structure • Reuse of existing materials and building parts that are not damaged. • reduction of waste amounts and climate impact. • a sustainable and resource efficient execution of the project. • Ensuring technical compatibility between the existing and new construction parts • reduced risk of errors and delays in the execution • Reuse of previous engineering design basis and building application approvals On this basis, Orkland municipality intends to enter into a contract with the original tenderer for improvements to the burns. This intention notice will be published in order to ensure transparency regarding the municipality ́s assessment and the planned contract award. Any objections to the planned direct procurement must be filed before the waiting period expires.
