ENQEIR557 - Framework for the Supply of Computer Equipment

EirGrid currently have 800 devices (600 desktops, 150 laptops and 50 workstations) with close to 200 applications supported on this platform. It is in year 3 of its hardware life cycle. We anticipate ad-hoc procurement of desktops and laptops of roughly 50 units per year for year 4 & 5 of this lifecycle. A hardware refresh and OS upgrade (Windows 10) will commence in 2018 for completion in 2019. All hardware will be replaced during this exercise. EirGrid anticipates a shift from PC’s/Desktops to Laptops during this hardware refresh of at least 50%. The approximate purchase will be 400 total over the first 3 years including hardware refresh. Workstations will be purchased on an ad-hoc basis over the life of the framework. EirGrid intends to establish a single supplier framework agreement for the provision of these services. Once the framework agreement is in place, and as and when requirements arise, contracts will be awarded to the framework member either on the basis of the original tenders submitted or after discussing a scope of work, agreeing on a cost and issuing a Purchase Order to the framework member. No work should be undertaken without a valid Purchase Order. Any invoice received which does not quote a valid Purchase Order number will be returned to the framework member. The framework agreement period will be for an initial duration of five years with the option to extend annually for up to an additional two years, subject always to the satisfactory performance of the supplier.
