Want to become a Hansel supplier?
We are the central procurement unit of the public administration, and the core of our services consists of joint procurements. We carry out joint procurement in cooperation with clients in public administration. Our joint procurements are carried out as either framework agreements or through a dynamic purchasing system (DPS).
On the Joint Procurement page, you will find all our ongoing joint procurements at different stages.
Framework agreement
A framework agreement is a procurement procedure in which it is possible to select one or more suppliers. Suppliers are usually selected for a four-year contract term. Clients enter the framework agreement in advance with the supplier(s) remaining the same throughout the contract period. A framework agreement is established by publishing a contract notice (invitation to tender) in Hilma, the official service for notices on public procurement in Finland. In Hilma, public buyers publish notices on upcoming and ongoing tendering procedures and as well on the results of procedures. The invitation to tender includes all the relevant information, such as the description of the subject of the procurement, the terms of the agreement and the clients included in the contract.
Dynamic Procurement System (DPS)
The dynamic purchasing system is a procurement procedure that is established by publishing a notice of participation in Hilma. DPS is open to all Hansel clients and suppliers that meet the applicability requirements for its entire duration. All suppliers who have submitted an entry application for a particular notice of participation in DPS that meet the requirements will be selected for inclusion in the DPS. Our clients carry out their own internal DPS tenders, i.e. mini-tenders between suppliers approved for the respective DPS.

The opportunity to participate in small-scale procurement is offered separately to each approved contract supplier in the respective DPS. With a small-scale procurement, our clients can only make purchases below the national threshold of EUR 60,000.
