Technical requirements: TII have established a new framework of VRS contractors to carry out VRS installations and repairs and associated civil works and construction of forgiving roadside solutions including reprofiling embankments, extending or redirecting drains and culverts and installation of passively safe fencing and supports on the national road network.
TII are establishing a new framework of VRS contractors to carry out VRS installations and repairs and associated civil works and construction of forgiving roadside solutions including reprofiling embankments, extending or redirecting drains and culverts and installation of passively safe fencing and supports on the national road network to replace their current VRS contractors framework. This framework may also be used for VRS installations on all national road projects e.g., pavement overlay schemes, Eirspan projects, realignment schemes, minor national road schemes and major national road schemes, etc. The framework may also be used by Local Authorities for VRS works on non-national roads. This framework will be limited to a maximum of six contractors and will provide a nationwide service to all Local Authorities. The contract will run for a period of 36 months with the option to extend it by a further 12 months.
TII will during the course of the framework also seek to engage and award VRS term maintenance contracts. This will involve term maintenance contracts with the Employer for maintenance of VRS in a particular county, area or region. In such a scenario a call-off contract will be developed and details will be provided therein. Typical call-off contract values are estimated in the region of €300,000 (may be lower or higher) and are not likely to exceed €1,000,000. The total value of contracts per year is likely to be between €2,500,000 and €5,000,000. Call-off competitions will be prepared by TII’s VRS design consultant in conjunction with the individual Local Authorities and TII.
