Cities, regions and central administration in Norway
28 public buyers declaring "General public services" as their main activity in their TED notices, with at least ten supply contract award notices since November 2023. The most notices first.
In proportion
General government spending on goods, services and investment for general public services in Norway came to €6.16 billion in 2024 (Eurostat, COFOG). How much of it reaches suppliers through tenders depends on how the country organises the sector — for example whether statutory health insurance is classified in government.

How we count: one award per procedure, lot and winning company, from live contract award notices; a joint procurement counts on every buyer's market. Values are the awarded amounts published in the notice (framework ceilings and estimates are never added), converted to euro at the ECB yearly average. Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
