Ireland – Construction work – DCC - Home Building Programme Contractor Multi Party Framework Agreement in 2 Lots A and B

Dublin City Council (“DCC”, the “Contracting Authority”) intends to establish two (2) four-year contractor multi-party framework agreements, namely, Lot A Framework and Lot B Framework (the “Frameworks”) for the delivery of a significant programme of housing projects (the “Programme”) utilising primarily the Design and Build (DB) delivery model. The Programme will form an important component of DCC’s direct social and affordable housing delivery pipeline for the period 2026–2030, consistent with the objectives set out in the Government’s new national housing plan, Delivering Homes, Building Communities. DCC has engaged the National Development Finance Agency (“NDFA”) to support the procurement and delivery of the Programme. 26 no. sites comprising approximately 4,000 units have been identified for inclusion in the Programme. Further sites may be added to the Programme over the lifetime of the Frameworks. The Frameworks will be established using a 2-stage restricted procurement procedure and will consist of the Lot A Framework and the Lot B Framework, with suitably qualified contractors appointed to each of the Frameworks. The Lot A Framework call off contracts capex values range from €100m to €250m, while call-off contracts under the Lot B Framework will have capex values of up to €100m. These capex value ranges may be adjusted as necessary over the period of the Frameworks in line with construction inflation. Applicants may apply to qualify for each Framework; however, applicants can only be shortlisted for one of the Frameworks. Applicants will be required to state their Framework preference at the pre-qualification submission stage. For example, if an applicant submits an application for both the Lot A Framework and the Lot B Framework and fulfils the pre-qualification requirements for both Frameworks, the applicant will only be shortlisted for their preferred Framework and will not be shortlisted for the other Framework.
