Norwegian term

avrop

Norwegian to English Marketing Marketing / Market Research
In "Avrop av bestilling". I have an idea, supported by colleagues, that "avrop" is close to "order" in meaning, but wonder if any colleagues here can advise how I might translate it in this context. "Recall of order" perhaps?

A search for \"avrop av bestilling\" and \"avrop avbestilling\" gave no hits on Google, whereas a search for \"avrop\" + \"bestilling\" will provide lots, some with definitions of the term. Which leads me to suggest that maybe there is an error in the original text? \"Avrop av bestilling\" just sounds strange to my (admittedly non-Norwegian) ears. It doesn\'t make sense to me. Might be worth checking that out.
Peer comment(s):

agree Vedis Bjørndal : avrop=bestilling innenfor en rammeavtale(framework agreement). This looks right to me

tender, bid

I wonder whether it is "bid for orders" or "tender for orders", within the area of (public) procurement/frame agreements that you're looking for. See below Norwegian.
