Kela has suspended the procurement of products for the 2026 maternity package. The decision was made in response to lower than expected demand for the package, which in turn is due to a decline in the birth rate. Kela will launch a new procurement as soon as possible.

Kela has issued an invitation to tender for the products included in the 2027 maternity package. Sustainability, durability and quality are emphasised in the tender process. Customer feedback has also played a role in the development of the maternity package.

Kela intends to streamline the processes involved in implementing social security by reforming its benefit administration systems and the target-state services these systems will facilitate. Kela has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers Business Services SRL as its strategic partner for the reform after conducting a competitive dialogue in accordance with procurement law.

Kela has issued an invitation to tender for an additional procurement round for the products included in the 2026 maternity package. The additional procurement round is a consequence of the upcoming increase in the value of the maternity grant.

Kela has published a new procurement notice for products to be included in the 2026 edition of the maternity package. The procurement was suspended earlier because there was significantly less demand for the package than expected due to the declining birth rate.
