Collaboration, or partnering, is a form of cooperation where we benefit from the participants' experience and competence. In this way, we create the best team to solve the tasks in a project. Through early involvement, we jointly arrive at the best solutions and find opportunities for innovation.

Collaboration is real teamwork, where the right competence from the start creates smart solutions, higher quality, and better control over both time and cost.
Collaboration and partnering mean that the entire project team works towards common goals, often within a joint organization. When the contractor is involved early, the conditions are further strengthened. Success is based on having the right competence and the right behaviors in place, and on creating a culture that promotes collaboration in the long term.

In collaborative projects, the focus in procurement is on quality and added value rather than the lowest price. The approach contributes to more efficient processes, shorter lead times, and better cost control. Through early involvement of the right expertise, the parties can together find innovative solutions, create increased societal benefit, and meet the complexity in projects with many stakeholders.
