Th East Link Project Learning from others We have met with a lot of foreign colleagues and suppliers regarding - Project management Technology Contract forms Procurement

The East Link Project Strategy documents

The East Link Project Strategy for Good Competition Continuous dialogue with the suppliers. Fair balance of risks between Buyer and Supplier. Transparent and calculable tender documents to reduce the suppliers´ risk-taking. Reduce barriers to entry for foreign suppliers.

The East Link Project Strategy for Innovation Address the contractors' skills and experience with regard to technical solutions, methods of production and logistics solutions. Describe functions rather than technical solutions in the tender documents. Design shall allow a large degree of freedom for coming Contractors and for Design-Build contracts. Bonus for innovations.

The East Link Project Strategy for packaging of contracts Enabling Works Separate contracts for respectively Demolition Temporary roads Site compounds Utility diversions

The East Link Project Strategy for packaging of contracts Civil Works A small number of very big contracts (> 3 miljarder SEK) All civil works in a certain area included in the same contract Design-build contracts to a great extent Active choices regarding business form
