Akademiska Hus is a contracting authority
Wednesday, 29 June 2016The ruling concerns a case in which the Swedish Competition Authority initiated proceedings in September 2012 requesting that Akademiska Hus be ordered to pay a public procurement fine for a general construction project regarding the new Skogishuset on the Umeå Campus. The decision by the Supreme Administrative Court means that Akademiska Hus must pay a public procurement fine of SEK 3 million and that from now on all company purchases must be procured under LOU.
“We welcome the decision, which finally provides long-awaited clarity on the issue. We continuously work with our purchasing process to ensure high-quality procurement and the transition to the new regulatory framework will therefore go smoothly,” says Kerstin Lindberg Göransson, President of Akademiska Hus.
