The Contracting Authority reserves the right to extend the contract for a maximum of a further two years’ subject to an annual review. As the subject matter of this competition is considered as a Title III service within the context of Directive 2014/24/EU, where the choice of procedure is open to the Contracting Authority, the procedure chosen on this occasion is a Single Stage Procedure with Negotiation. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to enter negotiations with some or all tenderers who submit a valid responsive tender. Negotiations may be held on all aspects of the service under each of the published Award Criteria. The Contracting Authority also reserves the right to award the framework / initial contract directly following receipt of initial tenders without recourse to negotiations with individual tenderers. Please note that this project is subject to funding. For further information please refer to documentation available to download from www.etenders.gov.ie Resource ID 2797642.
