Norway – Rescue services – Procurement of Operative Consultant Assistance

The Main Rescue Center at the NAWSARH project has been responsible for the procurement of new national rescue helicopters. The original project, with the procurement of 16 helicopters as well as the establishment of new facilities at six bases, was formally completed in August 2025. In February 2026, the Norwegian Parliament decided that the rescue helicopter operation in Tromsø would be taken over by the Norwegian Armed Forces c/o 330 m2 as for the other bases from 2030. The project was therefore re-established ("NAWSARH 2.0"). Due to the existing agreement for operative consultancy services expiring, the NAWSARH project needs to establish a new long-term agreement.
