Multi-party Framework Agreement for Building Repair and Conservation Works for Dublin City Council for projects with an estimated construction value up to €5m (ex. VAT)

Tender description

It is proposed to establish a Multi-Party Framework Agreement for Building Repair and Conservation Works for Dublin City Council (DCC) for projects with an estimated construction value up to €5m. It is anticipated that the works will consist of repair and refurbishment of existing buildings owned by DCC. The type of buildings will vary but are likely to include commercial properties, derelict buildings, flat blocks, houses, libraries, sports centres, galleries and miscellaneous public buildings. Some of the buildings will have special interest. For example, those listed on DCC's "Record of Protected Structures" and those listed on the "National Inventory of Architectural Heritage". These buildings will have specific conservation requirements and require Contractors who are competent and experienced in conservation works. The type of works will also vary but are likely to include structural remedial works, temporary works, "mothballing" works, architectural conservation works and whole scale repair and refurbishment works. In some instances, works may include general site clearance and opening-up. Hazardous materials are a risk item for existing buildings so items such as asbestos and lead paint removal may be required. The Framework Agreement will apply to individual projects with anticipated values ranging up to €5m (ex. VAT). The majority of projects, however, are envisaged to be less than €500,000 (ex. VAT) in value. Applications are only invited from Contractors who have a proven track record in building repair and conservation works as described above. It is anticipated that the building repair and conservation works will be carried out under the following public works contracts: - PW-CF5 - PW-CF6 - PW-CF7 - PW-CF8 The Framework will be established on foot of an initial contract for Building Repair Works at 41 Parnell Square.
