Request for Tender for Provision of Statutory Rating Valuation Services

Valuation Office

The Valuation Office is the State Valuation property organisation in Ireland. The core business of the Office is the provision of accurate, up-to-date statutory valuations of commercial and industrial properties for rating purposes. Full details of the role and function are available at www.valoff.ie A national revaluation programme is currently under-way and the early completion of that programme is a priority for the Office. Accordingly the Valuation Office has been considering a number of initiatives which would accelerate the programme. 1 of these is the use of external resources to compliment the Office's own internal capacity, through the external service delivery of elements of the valuation function. The Valuation Office intends, as a pilot project, to engage a contractor to conduct the revaluation of 2 rating authority areas involving approximately 5 000 cases, through all necessary stages of the statutory revaluation process including initial assessment of valuation, issue of proposed valuation certificates, consideration of representations from ratepayers, issuing final valuation certificates and dealing with appeals to the Independent Valuation Tribunal. The pilot project will be undertaken in the Carlow and Kilkenny Rating Authority areas. Reporting to a project board in the Valuation Office, it is envisaged that the contractor would be responsible for the project management, quality assurance and delivery of the contracted services.
