3 single party framework agreements for the provision of legal services
The contracting authority intends to establish 3 single-party framework agreements for the provision of legal services to support the delivery of its activities. In this regard, it is envisioned that a range of support may be required across a full range of staff (i.e., partner, associate, solicitor, assistant solicitor legal executive and trainee). Waterford City and County Council wishes to have access to legal expertise and representation as set out below.
The frameworks will be established in 3 Lots:
Lot 1 General Legal Services
This will cover the following:
a) Property related matters (including litigation);
b) General Local Government Legal Advisory Services, Enforcement and Prosecuting Liability, Defending Liability, Employment Law.
Lot 2 — Specialist Legal Services
This will cover the following:
a) Contract Law (particular regard to Construction Contracts);
b) Procurement Related Legal Services;
c) Specialist Planning Legal Services.
Lot 3 — Debt Recovery
The above requirements represent the current anticipated range of legal services required by Waterford City and County Council during the operation of the proposed frameworks. However, due to on-going review and development of services provided by Waterford City and County Council, additional Legal service requirements may arise during the duration of the framework; thereby altering the possible value of the frameworks.
However, no guarantee can be given of the volume of work to be awarded during the life of the Frameworks
Candidates may apply to be included on the tender list for each Lot by completing the attached qualification questionnaire, for Lot 1 at Appendix A1 and Appendix B1, For Lot 2 at Appendix A2 and Appendix B2, for Lot 3 at Appendix A2 and Appendix B3
Ultimately candidates may be invited to Tender following evaluation of their questionnaire.
