Multi-Party Framework Agreement for Civil Engineering Works at Dublin Port

DPC proposes to engage in a competitive process for the establishment of a Multi-Party Framework Agreement for the provision of Civil Engineering Works at Dublin Port and other lands under DPC’s control. The Framework will be concluded under the EU Utilities Directive 2014/25/EU and the associated Irish Statutory Instrument, S.I. No. 286 of 2016, implementing that Directive with binding force, specificity, precision and clarity, under Ireland’s obligations under the EU Treaty.

It is acknowledged that the full scope of services cannot be defined, as it will be influenced by the conditions of regulatory consents/licences yet to be issued. As and when required, DPC will procure these works under the Framework. The successful Framework Members will be required to carry out civil engineering works in connection with DPC’s Masterplan projects and associated capital works projects at Dublin Port.

The works listed below, although non-exhaustive, may be required under the Framework and delivered to the satisfaction of DPC, as included in the Masterplan Projects, including Alexandra Basin Redevelopment / MP2 / 3FM, which include the following:

• Dismantling of infrastructure and removal of infill material
• Quay wall refurbishment/construction (designed to accommodate future dredging to a level of -15.0m CD)
• Installation of Ro-Ro ramps.
• Ro-Ro jetty works.
• Dredging of basin and berths.
• Treatment of contaminated dredged material and re-use as infill on site.
• Development of cultural heritage interpretative space.
• Infilling of existing Berths (including where appropriate with treated dredged material).
• Raising of existing surface levels.
• Mooring jetty construction.
• Construction of surge protection/retaining wall.
• Surfacing of areas behind key walls using a combination of concrete slabs and bituminous surfacing or block paving for terminal yards/roads.
• Wall Protection Works, including concrete Mattresses being lifted into position.
• Port equipment, including relocation and refurbishment of existing ramps.
• The relocation of loading operations to a new quay across the Port.
• Internal road and bridge construction works throughout the Port.
• Port-related buildings.
• Specialist equipment supply (e.g. Loading Arms, Conveyor Systems, Fixed/Mobile Cranes, STS, specialist pipeline (e.g. Oil, Gas and the like).
• Port Electrification upgrade infrastructure works.
• Core civil engineering works including roads, pavements and hardstanding; drainage and utilities infrastructure; earthworks and ground remediation; civil structures (retaining walls, culverts, bridges); marine and quay-adjacent civil works
• DPC reserves the right to include additional ancillary works or enabling works as required to deliver the masterplan projects, including but not limited to, Additional/related services: site enabling works, temporary works design, traffic management during construction to facilitate the civil engineering works. DPC is seeking only candidates capable of delivering the full range of works listed above, whether in-house or as a grouping/consortium. Applications relating to only one or several of these disciplines will be rejected.
