7344 - GM 201 & 071 Main Generator Overhauls
This is a call to competition by IE for the procurement of the GM Fleets, 201 & 071 Main Generator Overhauls (the “Contract”). The IÉ fleets have been in service since late 70’s (071) & mid 90’s (201) and now require major overhaul works to be carried out with a provision of breakdown cover to be provided in the contract. IÉ will be looking at having up to 10 generators over the two fleets overhauled per annum.
The scope of the overhaul requirement will cover (but is not limited to) the assembly, disassembly, overhaul/repair, welding and non-destructive testing of the main gens over the two fleets.
Total numbers of Gen’s in the IÉ Fleets.

All work will be undertaken strictly in line with OEM specifications, however tenderers are cautioned not to rely solely on this information since equipment may have received modifications of improvement over time. Any differences identified between the OEM maintenance documentation and newer overhaul practices should be referred back to IÉ for approval. This will be done via the IÉ Engineering Change Process CME-TMS-316.
The Contract the subject of this competition is a contract for a minimum of three [3] years with an option to extend by a further one [1] + one [1] having potentially a maximum of five [5] years at IE’s discretion.
