Leveringsomvang

Leveringsomfang is the scope of delivery defined in a contract or procurement document, outlining exactly what a supplier commits to provide, when, and under which conditions. It is a central element in contract management and project planning, used to align expectations between buyer and supplier and to establish a baseline for price, performance, and risk allocation. The term is commonly used in Danish-language agreements and is often translated as “scope of delivery.”

A leveringsomfang describes the items or services to be delivered and may include: the specific goods or services (with product descriptions, part numbers, and quantities), quality and performance criteria, packaging and labeling requirements, delivery schedule, and the place of delivery. It also specifies transfer of risk and title, installation, commissioning, and acceptance procedures, as well as required documentation such as certificates, manuals, or licenses. Additional elements may cover installation and integration services, training, warranty terms, maintenance and service levels, spare parts, and after-sales support. Incoterms or other delivery terms, transport arrangements, insurance, and handling requirements are often part of the scope to clarify logistics responsibilities.

The leveringsomfang interacts with change management; changes to scope typically require a formal change order and may affect price, lead times, or acceptance criteria. Clear language reduces disputes by defining exclusions, dependencies, and interfaces with other contract documents such as technical specifications and drawings. In practice, a well-defined leveringsomfang supports transparent procurement, accurate budgeting, and predictable delivery performance.
