The lowest bid was from ISS in Iceland, and their offer was over 8.6 million kr\u00f3nur per month lower than the actual cost in the past year. The tender removed expensive uncertainties and they will be carried out in a different way, a way that will partially reduce the project's monthly return. \u201c<br \/>\n<em>This contract we have just signed with ISS is a very good example of the success that can be achieved when private sector delivery is applied correctly. Competitive tendering is a good thing and serves to keep everyone on their toes, not just the local authority but the service companies involved as well.\u201c<\/em> says Haraldur L. Haraldsson at the signing of the contracts. ISS also had the lowest bid for meals for the elderly. That item increased by 8% from the previous contract. The saving on school transport amounts to 2-4%, or just over one million kroner, and it is the same company that has handled school transport to date \u2013 H\u00f3pb\u00edlar \u2013 which proved to have the most favourable bid. The cost of school transport was approximately 56 million for the year 2014.<\/p>\n<p>In the picture in the foreground of the news article, a fine group of representatives from the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and ISS in Iceland can be seen.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Undirskriftir \u00ed tengslum vi\u00f0 n\u00fdja samninga vegna \u00fatbo\u00f0a \u00e1 \u00fej\u00f3nustu\u00fe\u00e1ttum Hafnarfjar\u00f0arb\u00e6jar halda \u00e1fram. \u00cd s\u00ed\u00f0ustu viku var skrifa\u00f0 undir samning vi\u00f0 H\u00f3pb\u00edla vegna sk\u00f3laaksturs og ISS vegna r\u00e6stinga og heimsendingar \u00e1 mat til eldri borgara.&nbsp; H\u00f3pur fulltr\u00faa H\u00f3pb\u00edla og Hafnarfjar\u00f0arb\u00e6jar vi\u00f0 undirritun samnings um sk\u00f3laakstur \u00datbo\u00f0 \u00ed r\u00e6stingu er a\u00f0 skila sparna\u00f0i upp \u00e1 r\u00famar [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15515,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_breakdance_hide_in_design_set":false,"_breakdance_tags":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12883","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-frettir"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12883","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12883"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12883\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12883"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12883"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12883"}],"curies":[{"name":"WordPress","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
