Offentlig upphandling är ett område som varje år omsätter stora belopp i Sveriges ekonomi. När en upphandlande enhet skall göra inköp av varor eller tjänster som inte är av obetydligt belopp skall enheten tillämpa reglerna om offentlig upphandling. I lagen om offentlig upphandling (LOU) finns det en lagstadgad möjlighet för anbudsgivare att komplettera sitt anbud, 1 kap. 21 §. Rättsregeln att komplettera sitt anbud skulle kunna tolkas som ett avsteg från den för offentlig upphandling gällande likabehandlingsprincipen.

The overriding purpose of this graduate thesis is to evaluate if municipalities and county councils can deviate from the legislation of public procurement during procurement of customer choice agreements within the health and social care area. The intention of this Quasi-market is to provide the users with competition in terms of quality rather then the general principal rule of economic value.My conclusion results in a legal situation without rules of general procedure. So far the authorities make their own regulation in the field of customer choice agreements. The problem lies within the authorization of new contractors and their right to make an appeal against resolutions made by the authorities social care divisions.One solution is to legislate within the present law of public procurement. Another way to solve the problem is to create a lex specialis apart from the present public procurement regulation..

Rapporten är en empirisk studie med syfte att belysa möjligheter och hinder för kunskapsöverföring vid en generationsväxling inom offentlig förvaltning utifrån ett ledarskapsperspektiv. Frågeställningen som utgjorde basen för att uppnå syftet var: Hur bevaras kompetensen inom myndigheten? Studien tog ansats i kvalitativ metod genom sex halvstrukturerade djupintervjuer som genomfördes med chefer. Det mest framträdande resultatet är att den offentliga förvaltningen arbetar medvetet och proaktivt med kompetensöverföring vid en generationsväxling. Hindren för att lyckas är att anslagen för rekrytering samt fastställandet av arbetsuppgifternas art styrs från central nivå.

The aim of this study was to examine nursing personnel?s knowledge about oral health care and attitudes towards the free assessment of the oral status done by the dental service for elderly and handicapped persons in a municipality in the south part of Skåne, and also how personnel experience the free assessment of the oral status done by the dental service and how it functioned at the facilities. The study was carried out by sending out 150 questionnaires to nursing personnel at six special housing facilities. 73% (110 personnel?s) answered the questionnaires.

The purpose of this thesis is to discuss the possibilities of, and interest in, a digital download service at the music departments of the libraries. I chose to conduct my study at the city library of Gothenburg. I studied the legal download services that exist today and I did a statistical survey among the users of the music department, followed up by interviews to see how they took to the idea. From the inquiry I learned that a majority of the users was negative to having a digital service replacing the physical department, although a majority was positive to try a digital service. I also used the inquiry to compare the reasons for downloading music to the reasons for borrowing records from the library, but there was no significant difference.

The valuation of an asset is one of the most important thing with accounting, though one of the most difficult thing as well. However, in deciding useful service life for an intangible asset and property, plant and equipment, there are quite a margin for the companies, which creates a difference between companies and industries. When computing the value of the inventories there are a few possibilities available for the companies, which also can generate differencesbetween companies and industries. Although these differences can occur, there might be some similarities in the companies? estimates.

Den ökade sjukfrånvaron har ökat efterfrågan hos företag efter ekonomiska argument för investeringar i hälsa och information om kostnader för ohälsa. För att kunna ge ett underlag vid hälsoekonomiska diskussioner med företagshälsovårdens kunder har en beräkningsmodell, ?Hälsoeffekten?, utvecklats vid Institutet för Personal- och Företagsutveckling vid Uppsala universitet.För att utvärdera modellen användes den för att beräkna kostnaderna för sjukfrånvaron på tre mindre avdelningar inom en stor offentlig organisation. All information som användes vid beräkningarna erhölls från verksamheternas egna ekonomiska system. I jämförelse med tidigare utvärderingsmodeller har det i denna modell gjorts kopplingar till forskningen kring hälsa och ohälsa.

Som ting betraktat är ett arbete där jag undersöker mitt görande i förhållandet till taktilitet, materialet och textila tekniker. En möbelinstallation bestående av en skulptural möbel, en lampa och en serie med kuddar. Installationen är tänkrt att fungera som ett mellanting mellan konstnärlig utsmyckning och möbler för offentlig miljö. I min process har jag fokuserat på uttrycket som konstnärlig utsmyckning snarare än en undersökning av en praktisk möbel för offentlig miljö. En möbel som tilltalar sinnet genom taktilitet och uppmuntrar till nyfikenhet..

The underlying aim of this paper is to find out how the management and employees in a grocery store on a relatively small community in Sweden is experiencing Technology-Based Self-Service (TBSS), and self-scanning. And how store management and employees experience that the self-scanning ability is received by their respective consumers. Several open individual interviews were conducted with the administrative head of sales and various employees working at different departments at Coop Forum in Skara In offering self-scanning, we believe that the store provides consumers with an opportunity to perform their daily purchases by an easy and flexible approach, which we believe will have a positive impact on the entire store visit. A positive store visit, we believe play a major role in consumers choosing to do their shopping in the store.The issue to be elucidated in this paper is; How do management and employees in a grocery store perceive that self-scanning influence consumers' purchase and the service the shop offers? Why would a supermarket use self-scanning as part of the service they offer to their consumers? The report concludes the similarities and differences experienced by administrative sales manager and employees compared to previous research on the subject.

Den offentliga sektorn är en viktig arbetsplats och utgör en funktion i att stärka välfärden.För att verksamheterna ska fortsätta att utvecklas är det av största vikt att välfärdssektornarbetar för att stärka och utveckla ledarskapet. Vår uppfattning är att delar av de problemsom den offentliga sektorn idag kämpar med grundar sig i att den inte aktivt förvaltar ocharbetar med identiteten. Det är ett arbete som innebär att på ett effektivt sätt förhålla sigtill sina intressenter. Syfte med denna uppsats är att belysa komplexiteten i ledarskapet,utifrån valda teorier kring struktur, kultur, identitet och kommunikation vill vi vidareförsöka identifiera eventuella likheter och skillnader mellan olika verksamheter i enkommun som kan hjälpa till att beskriva komplexiteten. Vår förhoppning är att dettaperspektiv kan bli ett bidrag för ledarnas fortsatta arbete med utvecklingen av denoffentliga sektorn.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether Swedish, Internet-based travel agencies, acting on a consumer market are working towards creating added value for their customers. If that is the case, how and why do they use such a mode of operation.The theoretical framework was based on Grönroos´ ?Augmented service offering?, which treats added value as an addition to the core service. The services offered on five of the larger companies´ websites on the market were examined and 3 representatives of the five companies were interviewed.The study shows that 2 of the examined companies did not produce any added value, while 3 of the companies did produce added value for the customer. The added value was generated through packaging of core-, facilitating- and supporting services for the purpose of differentiating the company towards competitors and generating service fees..

The aim of this master's thesis is a comparative study on units for civic information in Göteborg. The study is based on a project currently in progress at the main public library in Göteborg. It is observed that according to the library's mission statement the library aims to become the most competent intermediary of civic information in Göteborg. This statement suggests a competitive strategy towards other intermediaries of civic information. The mission statement does, however, also state that their goal is to be obtained in cooperation with other intermediaries.
