Description of the procurement

The Contracting Authority wishes to establish and operate a multi-supplier Framework Agreement for the provision of pavement and associated minor works for national road schemes. The proposed number of framework contractors will be a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 10 (provided sufficient Tenderers qualify for admission to the framework). The Framework Period will be 18 months. The contracting Authority may, at its absolute discretion, extend the Framework Period by a further 24 months in 12 month increments and a final 6 months period such that the total Framework Period will not exceed 48 months. Public bodies entitled to purchase through the Framework Agreement are the Contracting Authority (Kildare County Council), Dún Laoghaire - Rathdown County Council, Laois County Council, South Dublin County Council and Wicklow County Council. Where a framework purchaser requires works to be undertaken under the Frmaework Agreement, it will do so by way of awarding contract(s) to a framework Participant following a mini-competition carried out as per the 'call off by competition' procedure indicated in the Framework Agreement. The number of Works Contracts awarded under the framework in a year is unlikely to exceed 20. Typically, the value of each Works Contact would approximately range from €100,000 to €1,000,000. The values and number of Works Contracts are indicative only and there is no guarantee that this volume of work will be awarded under this framework.
