What the buyer is looking for

On behalf of Business Turku Oy, the City of Turku Procurement Services will request offers for financial and payroll administration services and a working time monitoring solution for the period 1 January 2027 - 31 December 2030, after which the agreement will continue for an indefinite period.

During the pre-procurement phase, a market survey was carried out by publishing a request for information in HILMA on 18 September 2026. The request for information was open to all interested tenderers and received three responses.

… transparency and equal treatment. From the point of view of the customer's needs, dividing the procurement into lots is not possible, because dividing it would lead to a situation unmanageable from the point of view of the services, which, due to the criticality of the service, would not be possible to coordinate safely while maintaining the functionality of the service.

Contract management of the procurement would be very burdensome and costly from a technical point of view, and sharing would jeopardise proper monitoring of the contract. Dividing the contract into lots would also significantly reduce the volume benefits of competitive tendering, as the procurement could be split between several suppliers, reducing the value of the contract and its attractiveness to an individual supplier. · The procurement is described in this call for tenders and its annexes. · The procurement is described in this call for tenders and its annexes.
