[DescrProcurement]

Lot 1 requires tenderers to provide resources with the required level of knowledge and experience for the roles described for programme and project management services.
The roles require senior level programme support at consultant level for a number of key large scale projects with a mix of offshore, overhead line and cable projects, Senior experienced project managers are also required for a variety of Uprate, System Reinforcements and Customer Connection projects and programme data analysts for the Vision 2030/PR5 programme support. It is anticipated that resources will be required over a variety of durations for the length of this framework for up to 8 years (including potential extensions).
It is proposed under Lot 1 to acquire the resources as a managed service from the tenderers with activities directed through an account manager for the duration of the engagement. Where a single resource is indicated it may be preferable to both EirGrid and the Tenderer to propose multiple available resources for an activity which total up to the equivalent of a full time resource over a period of time.
