Description
NIE Networks has a requirement to maintain a safe and roadworthy fleet. As part of this obligation it is necessary to carry out timely and proper repairs to vehicles that have been damaged as a result of accident. Following completion of the procurement process, NIE Networks wished to establish a framework agreement with a suitably qualified and experienced service provider for this requirement. A framework agreement for all Services will be directly awarded to the first placed tenderer submitting the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) for this requirement. The framework agreement will be established for a period of three years with an option (exercisable entirely at NIE Networks sole discretion) to extend for a further period of up to two years – potentially five (5) years in total.
