Rejlers signs prestigious framework agreement with Ellevio
2018-03-28
The new framework agreement covers a total of nine areas with Rejlers being chosen as collaboration partner for all nine of the areas. The assignments can vary in terms of both duration and complexity, and the agreement runs for two years, with the option of extension for a total of a further six years. The framework agreement enters into force on 1 April.
“Our ability to deliver within all nine areas is proof that we can meet Ellevio’s needs as regards both size and expertise,” says Jenny Edfast, Business Manager at Rejlers.
The fact that Rejlers has employees stretching from Malmö in the south to Kiruna in the north was another positive factor in the outcome of the procurement. The agreement covers building technology and electrical power in both local and regional grids, cables and overhead power lines in regional grids, inspections and specialist expertise within nature, environment, culture and forest and property law.
As we are able to deliver within all these areas, our framework agreement also covers projects,” says Jenny Edfast.
Rejlers has been working with Ellevio for many years and has for example carried out feasibility studies, project engineering for stations and cables and inspections. Rejlers and Ellevio also have a shared interest in digital solutions which streamline working methods within project engineering and other areas. The partnership can now be deepened further.
We are very thorough in our framework agreement negotiations. The electricity grid in Sweden is a vital part of the nation’s infrastructure and requires both a high level of expertise and the ability to put personnel on the ground quickly. Rejlers is one such supplier of whom we already have excellent experience,” says Mattias Omberg, procurement officer at Ellevio.
