Framework of Contractors under Better Energy Warmer Homes Scheme and Warmth and Well-being Pilot Scheme
The objective of this RFT was to establish a framework of contractors to install Better Energy Warmer Homes scheme and Warmth and Well-being pilot scheme energy efficiency measures in eligible homes nationwide. However, due to the exceptional unforeseen circumstances brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic in Ireland (including the substantive closure of the construction industry throughout Ireland), it is envisaged that it will not be possible to conclude a new public procurement competition in respect of the supply of works to the authority under a replacement framework agreement for the Schemes prior to expiry of the Agreement on 30 June 2020. The extension to the term of the Agreement is for such minimum period necessary to permit the current or a new procurement competition to be completed as soon as the Covid-19 circumstances in Ireland reasonably allow. The extension amount of EUR 44 500 000 will not exceed 50 % of the original contract value.
