Uisce Éireann has completed a competition for a framework involving the design, supply, testing, and commissioning of water resilience pipeline installation and associated works at selected locations nationally.

The framework, valued at €309m, was awarded under the contracting entity's qualification system ref. 23-023 for the provision of Civils Works Contractors to Uisce Éireann. The award notice covers work classified under the 45231300.

Framework contracts allow the buyer to call off work from appointed suppliers over a set period without running a fresh tender each time. Suppliers appointed to this framework can expect to compete for individual call-offs as Uisce Éireann identifies pipeline projects across its national service area.
