Additional information

Tenderers should note that the figure in fields II.1.5 and II.2.6 represents the contracting authority’s best estimate of the anticipated total value, but that it is not possible to be definitive in this regard by virtue of the contracting authority’s variable demand for the relevant works (and the fact that the contracting authority does not have visibility of the successful tenderer(s)’ pricing at this stage). In that regard, Tenderers should be aware that the contracting authority reserves the right to continue to use the contract in the normal course, for works quantities that are higher than anticipated, up to a maximum value of €35,000,000 (subject always to the contracting authority’s right to make modifications to the contract which are justified by Regulation 72 of SI 284 of 2016 and that such modifications might involve exceeding the stated “maximum” value). Tenderers should also note that the estimate in fields II.1.5 and II.2.6 and the “maximum” value stated in this Additional Information field are both estimates only, and do not amount to a guarantee that any quantity of works will be purchased under the contract. The value may be significantly lower than either or both estimates (or indeed significantly higher than the figure in fields II.1.5 and II.2.6), and Tenderers should bear the variable nature of the works in mind when deciding whether to tender for this opportunity.
