Commercial Management Services

EirGrid plc

EirGrid intends to establish a single supplier framework for the provision of commercial management services. EirGrid intends to utilise, as necessary, a flexible third party resourcing model and has a requirement for the provision of specialised commercial resources and services from a strategic partner. The provision of services and allocation of resources shall be outlined for each assignment in order to best meet the EirGridโ€™s requirement. It is intended that this shall be a flexible approach to provision of service where services may be through a managed service type role, where the consultants personnel can work either remotely or in the EirGrid offices on a part time or full time basis, or through a more traditional form of consultancy advice which can be provided off-site. There may also be a requirement for a combination of these two approaches.

Deadline

The time limit for receipt of tenders was 2020-11-26. The procurement was published on 2020-10-23.
