Tilldelningsdatum

Tilldelningsdatum is a Swedish term used mainly in procurement, grants and budgeting to indicate the date when an allocation is formally decided or recorded. The exact meaning can vary by context, but the common thread is that it marks when a decision to allocate resources becomes effective or officially confirmed.

In public procurement, tilldelningsdatum refers to the date on which the contracting authority formally awards the contract to a bidder. This is the official moment the winner is identified, and it often precedes or coincides with contract signing and start of delivery. The date is important for legal remedies and for determining timelines related to award notices and possible challenges.

In grant and funding administration, tilldelningsdatum denotes the date funds or resources are allocated to a recipient or project after proposal evaluation. It signals the start of disbursement eligibility, reporting obligations, and budget tracking for the funded activity.

In accounting and internal budgeting, tilldelningsdatum can indicate when a budgeted resource is assigned to a project or cost center, affecting financial reporting and cost accounting.

Notes: Tilldelningsdatum should be distinguished from tilldelningsbeslut, the formal decision to award, and from tilldelningstidpunkt, the actual moment the resource becomes available. Practical implications include start-of-contract obligations, eligibility of costs, and adherence to deadlines for appeals or re-tendering.
