Atea Denmark wins large public sector frame agreement
Staten og Kommunernes Indkøbsservice A/S (SKI), the procurement organization for the public sector in Denmark, has selected Atea as supplier on a large frame agreement for communication products. The frame agreement, called ‘50.07 Kommunikationsprodukter og -løsninger’, covers the Danish central government, 4 regions, and 73 municipalities. In addition to these government organizations that are obliged to purchase via 50.07, other public sector customers may also use the agreement on a voluntary basis.

The frame agreement has a two-year term, with a two years option. Total purchases under the frame agreement are expected to be DKK 1,700 million across all vendors. Atea has previously been a supplier of communications products to the public sector on the frame agreements which preceded this new agreement.
