Dublin Simon Community proposes to award a single party framework agreement with an initial contract for 2 years with an option to extend for a further three (3) periods of up to twelve months each, up to a maximum of 5 years, for the provision of a Catering Service to our new 100 room facility located at Ushers Island, Dublin 8 . The Contracting Authority reserves the right to extend the contract for a maximum of a further three years’ subject to an annual review. As the subject matter of this competition is considered as a Title III service within the context of Directive 2014/24/EU, where the choice of procedure is open to the Contracting Authority, the procedure chosen on this occasion is a Single Stage Procedure with Negotiation. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to enter negotiations with some or all tenderers who submit a valid responsive tender. Negotiations may be held on all aspects of the service under each of the published Award Criteria. The Contracting Authority also reserves the right to award the framework / initial contract directly following receipt of initial tenders without recourse to negotiations with individual tenderers.
