Access to the Online Bookshelf service Text automatically translated in your browsing language Automatically translated

The object of the procurement is the right to use the Online Bookshelf service provided by Alma Media Finland Oy, which entitles the user to use the digital content of the service. The procurement will be carried out by the Prime Minister’s Office for the use of all ministries and the employees of the Office of the Chancellor of Justice and the President’s Office. The service will be purchased under a contract of indefinite duration as of 1 January 2025. There are two operators in Finland (Alma Media Finland Oy and Edilex Lakitieto Oy) that offer a sufficiently extensive and reliable digital service for domestic legal information for the needs of government employees. However, the products of these operators do not fully replace each other, as the contents and uses are different. The Prime Minister's Office has also acquired Edilex Lakitieto Oy's Edilex service. The content of the services complements each other. The service provider Alma Media Finland Oy owns the Web Bookshelf service and its user rights. As Alma Media Finland Oy has the exclusive right to the content of the service in question, it is the only supplier with the rights and technical prerequisites to carry out the procurement. There are no alternative or substitute solutions and the absence of competition is not due to an artificial narrowing down of the terms of the procurement.
