Dublin City Council wishes to invite tenders to establish a 4-year single party framework agreement for provision of fine art insurance services for the Hugh Lane Gallery.
The initial contract will be awarded for a period of three (3) years, with an option to extend for 1 further year.
The framework will be used to meet the Gallery’s fine art insurance requirements which includes the basic annual insurance of the collection, as well as any exceptional cover that may arise during the lifetime of the framework.
It is emphasised that a framework agreement constitutes no guarantee to purchase a specific quantity of services from a particular economic operator. Indeed, Dublin City Council reserves the right to operate outside of the framework agreement at its discretion.
The initial contract is for the provision of fine arts insurances services for the Hugh Lane Gallery for the period of 1 June 2021 to 31 May 2024 (both days included).
