Direct procurement

When the value of a purchase is estimated to be below the threshold for direct procurement (700,000 SEK), the purchase falls within the scope of direct procurement. The checklist provides guidance for the implementation of direct procurement and includes templates that can be used for more extensive purchases. The direct procurement process, in brief, involves Karolinska Institutet competitively tendering the purchase to up to three suppliers.
