Ordering from printers, agencies and photographers

The agreements include both Lund University’s own contracts and government framework agreements. The agreements are structured in various ways which affect how they are to be used. Find more detailed information in each category below.

Our agreements

Lund University has procurement agreements within the following areas:

• Printers

Media and reputation analysis

The University has a framework agreement with Kantar Public for services in media and reputation analysis. Through the framework agreement, Kantar Public is directly engaged without the need for any competitive procurement process.

Film production

Do you need help to produce a video, animation or illustration for a press release or to present/visualise research environments and courses/programmes? If so, you can contact the University’s production team. The team also helps with studio productions of a popular science nature, and can assist with certain parts of a production, such as concept development or editing. The team takes on large and small assignments themselves, but can also guide you on to procured agencies.

What to remember when ordering

A consistently communicated graphic profile contributes to clarity, unity and increased visibility. These are factors which positively affect the university’s credibility and good reputation. Be careful always to follow the rules in the graphic profile when ordering services from one of our procured suppliers, regardless of whether the order concerns printed or digital material.

When is contacting a supplier outside our framework agreements permitted?

The framework agreements must always be followed. A valid reason to engage a supplier outside our framework agreements is in principle only when all the suppliers within a product area have been asked and are unable to supply the desired product or service. To break the framework agreement can mean running the risk of claims for damages. In that case, the organisational unit which violated the agreement has to carry the cost.

More information and good advice are available on the web pages concerning purchasing and procurement. From these pages, you can also access the agreements database in Lupin. Lupin also contains information on all Lund University’s agreements, both its own and the government framework agreements.
