2. Scope of Work
The contract requires the provision of consultancy services for an Integrated Design Team to enable the potential of specific plots in Ballaghaderreen. This involves developing a comprehensive design strategy and associated documentation for the project. The services are structured into two main tasks.
Task 1 focuses on the initial design and planning phases. This includes:
- Design Team Meetings: A minimum of one online design team meeting with Roscommon County Council (RCC) every two weeks.
- Feasibility and Concept Design: Developing preliminary designs and assessing feasibility.
- Statutory Consents: Securing necessary planning permissions, including Part 8, and any other required consents (e.g., environmental, wildlife, archaeological).
- Tender Documentation Preparation: Producing a full suite of tender documents for construction works, estimated to take 10 weeks.
- Total Stage Task 1 Duration: 32 weeks.
Task 2 covers the procurement and construction stages. This includes:
- Contractor Procurement: Managing the procurement process for construction contractors via eTenders, estimated at 8 weeks.
- Tender Evaluation: Conducting the assessment, evaluation, and reporting for construction tenders, estimated at 8 weeks.
- Client Approval: Obtaining client approval, estimated at 6 weeks.
- Contractor Appointment and Mobilisation: Appointing and mobilising the selected contractor, estimated at 12 weeks.
- Construction Stage: Overseeing the construction works, with a duration of 52 weeks.
- Site Meetings: A minimum of one in-person site meeting every two weeks during construction.
- Total Stage (iii) Duration: 34 weeks (this appears to refer to the procurement and pre-construction elements of Task 2).
The overall project timeline, including construction, is substantial, with Task 1 taking 32 weeks and the subsequent stages of Task 2 (procurement through to contractor mobilisation) taking 34 weeks, followed by a 52-week construction period. The contract will be governed by the Standard Conditions of Engagement for Consultancy Services (Technical) issued by the Office of Government Procurement.
3. Background & buyer context
This procurement is for consultancy services related to the "Enabling the Potential of Ballaghaderreen Plots" project, commissioned by Roscommon County Council. The project is likely part of broader rural regeneration initiatives, potentially aligning with national or regional development strategies such as the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund (RRDF) or similar programmes focused on enhancing rural towns and villages. The application form for the RRDF indicates that projects must be at an advanced stage of planning/design and ready to commence. This suggests the current procurement is a step towards making the Ballaghaderreen plots project "procurement ready" for potential funding or implementation. The project aims to unlock the potential of these specific sites within Ballaghaderreen.
