Route 1: Procurement based on unit prices.

We expect to issue closed tenders every 3-6 months, seeking unit rates in four time categories. When procuring a service through Route 1, the City of Reykjavík will send a work order to the party with the most cost-effective offer in the relevant time group. This party will then have 24 hours to confirm whether they will accept the project. If confirmation is not received within 24 hours, the City reserves the right to reach out to the party with the second most cost-effective offer, and so on.

Route 2: Projects requiring more than 500 hours of work.
