The Contracting Authority expects that multiple contracts will be awarded for the provision of the services as described in Appendix 1 of the Request For Tender document. The number of contracts awarded will be determined by the number of tenders received and the financial resources available to fund projects. The Department anticipates that it will have an annual budget of €400,000 to fund successful social farming model projects. Each successful project will receive funding up to a maximum of €100,000 per annum. Depending on the funding requirements of the successful projects there may scope to award more than 4 contracts up to a maximum of 8 contracts in total.
