The Contracting Authority intends to establish a Design & Build Contractor Framework for the delivery of school projects in rapid developing areas across Ireland.
The framework will be established following short listing of candidates and will be based on the results of a first tender competition. This first competition will include the award of one school project. The Contracting Authority is seeking expressions of interest from Design & Build Contractors who have the capability of delivering a minimum of 4No. 16 classroom schools (circa 2,400 m² each) within a 38 week contract period to the standards as set out in Technical Guidance Document - 021 'Construction Standards for Schools' and 'Typical Output Specification for Rapid Build Schools'.
It is envisaged that between circa 25 and 50 school contracts will be procured from the framework. The overall estimated value of purchases for the entire duration of the framework is estimated at between 100,000,000 EUR to 150,000,000 EUR. The school contracts may include extensions or new builds varying in size from GP Room extensions, 8 classroom extensions, 16 classroom extensions, new build 8 classroom, new build 16 classroom, new build 24 classroom, new build 32 classroom schools and new build 350 / 650 pupil post primary. It is a requirement that the schools can be fully delivered (i.e. designed, manufactured, delivered, erected and completed, including the Certification in accordance with SI 09 of 2014 Building Control (Amendment) Regulations 2014) within 34 – 40 weeks using rapid construction methods.
The candidate must form a team to include the Building Works Contractor, Project Supervisor Construction Stage, Architect, Mechanical and Electrical Engineer, Civil and Structural Engineer and Project Supervisor Design Process. Each member of the team will be assessed independently under a single application with the Building Contractor as the lead applicant.
