Tenderers were advised that the competition comprised two lots, and tenderers were required to submit a single tender submission in accordance with the tender documents. The Authority entered into the Framework Agreements with the tenderers that submitted the most economically advantageous tenders, as determined on the basis of quality and price. The top‑ranked tenderer that satisfied the exclusion and selection criteria set out in the ESPD was appointed to both Lot 1 (Single Supplier Framework) and Lot 2 (Multi Supplier Framework). The second, third and fourth ranked tenderers that satisfied the exclusion and selection criteria set out in the ESPD were appointed to Lot 2. The duration of the Framework Agreements for Lots 1 and 2 was four years. The awarded positions on the Framework Agreements, based on rankings, were as follows: Lot 1 (Single Supplier Framework – top‑ranked tenderer) - Amey OW Ireland Ltd Lot 2 (Multi Supplier Framework) - Amey OW Ireland Ltd (1st) - Planbay Ltd, trading as Linesight (2nd) - Turner and Townsend Ltd (3rd) - Aecom Ireland Ltd (4th) The estimated maximum spend across Lots 1 and 2 is €30,000,000 over the four‑year duration of the Framework Agreements.
