Short description
Single Supplier Framework Contract for the provision of Tellus Sample
Preparation of Geochemical Fine Stream Sediment Samples by Agate Milling to
Fine Powder Pulps for the Minister of Communications, Climate Action &
Environment as represented by the GSI. A regional geochemical survey of soils,
stream sediments and stream waters in the border region of Ireland was recently
completed by the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI). Further stream sediment
sampling at approximately 10,000 sites will take place in the period 2016–2019.

Description of the procurement
Single Supplier Framework Contract for the provision of Tellus Sample
Preparation of Geochemical Fine Stream Sediment Samples by Agate Milling to
Fine Powder Pulps for the Minister of Communications, Climate Action &
Environment as represented by the GSI. A regional geochemical survey of soils,
stream sediments and stream waters in the border region of Ireland was recently
completed by the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI). Further stream sediment
sampling at approximately 10,000 sites will take place in the period 2016–2019.
This RFT is for geochemical sample preparation of these stream sediment
samples by disaggregation and agate ball milling of 30–35 g of the <150 μm
sample fraction until nominally 95% is <32 μm. Several sub-samples of the milled
material are to be weighed out and stored in secure containers. A number of
reference materials, supplied by the Client, are to be weighed, potted and labelled
as per regular samples and instructions from the client. Individual samples are to
be transported from Dublin, Ireland, to the contractor’s chosen facility to be
prepared into disaggregated dry, fine-powder samples. The prepared samples are
to be returned to Dublin, Ireland.
Tenderers who propose alternative methodologies to those specified are
reminded that the required specifications herein must form the basis of any
proposed technical methodology. Alternative and superior technologies may be
considered, and any deviation from the requirements set out here shall be
evaluated against the Award Criteria.
Tenderers should note that only compliant and qualifying tenders shall be
evaluated.
