Göteborg’s City reduces its telephony costs by 300 MSEK
(corresponding to 67%) for the coming 5-year period through
an agreement with TeliaSonera.
GÖTEBORG - September 14, 2005 - Göteborgs Stads Upphandlings AB has managed the buying process using tools developed by Trade Extensions.
”The price level in telephony is generally going down, but this result could not have been achieved without the use of an electronic auction” says Göran Brunberg, chief buyer at Upphandlingsbolaget. “The procedure furthermore ensures transparency and fair treatment of all bidders”, he continues.
”The strength of making the tender competitive through clean mathematic evaluation, as done in electronic auctions, has since long proven to save huge amounts in the industrial sector. We are happy that Göteborgs Stads Upphandlings AB has used this method as a pioneer in the public sector”, says Arne Andersson, CEO of Trade Extensions.
