Establishment of a Single Party Framework Agreement for Architect-Led Integrated Design Team Services, for the Construction of a New Two-Bay Fire Station at Rathdowney, Co. Laois
Laois County Council, the local government authority for County Laois, is establishing a single-party framework for architect-led integrated design team services, with the initial contract covering the design of a new two-bay fire station at Johnstown Road (R435), Rathdowney. The appointed team will provide coordinated architectural and multidisciplinary design services for the proposed fire station and support its progression through the required design and construction-related stages, with the framework intended to pre-qualify the team before invitations to tender for the initial project. The stated estimated value is £800,000, although the tender details do not specify whether this figure covers the framework, the initial services, or associated construction works, and no contract duration is provided. Delivery is centred on Rathdowney, County Laois, in the IE063 region. The critical qualification requirement is that bidders must be architect-led integrated design teams capable of undertaking the required multidisciplinary services and passing the pre-qualification stage.
