Submit a tender
To submit a tender, you need to create a user account in the procurement tool used for that particular procurement. During a transition period, the City of Gothenburg is using both TendSign and Kommers Annons.
The entire city will gradually transition to Kommers Annons until 2027.
Register your account well before the tender deadline.
Once your account is ready, you will gain access to the procurement documents, which describe what is being procured and what requirements apply.
Checklist when submitting a tender:
- Answer all requested information and follow all instructions carefully.
- Ensure your tender meets all requirements and conditions.
- Submit your tender before the deadline – late tenders cannot be accepted.

What happens next?
When the tender period ends, we evaluate all tenders. We then make a decision on which supplier(s) will be awarded the contract – this is called an award decision.
After the decision, there is normally a standstill period of ten days. This gives suppliers who were not awarded the contract the opportunity to request a review if they wish.
When the standstill period has passed, we sign a contract with the supplier who won the procurement.
