years with the option, exercisable at the discretion of the Council, to extend in increments of
six (6) months, up to a maximum of twenty four (24) months to work in partnership with the
Council (the "Contracting Authority") to design, procure, market and manage construction
works and developer frameworks as defined by and compliant with the Procurement Act
2023.
The Council will permit the successful Concessionaire to make the Frameworks accessible to
other definable recognisable classes of Contracting Authority which are eligible and grant a
concession to the Concessionaire to market and manage the Frameworks in return for a
concession fee (whether in the form of rebates or otherwise) to be established under this
procurement process.
The Concessionaire will be required to make all necessary commitments and investments,
resources, financial or otherwise, to work in partnership with the Council to establish the
Frameworks and will not receive any consideration or payment from the Council for the
whole of the services to be delivered under the awarded Concession Contract. In
consideration for the Council awarding a Concession Contract to the Concessionaire to let,
market and manage the Frameworks, a concession fee will be payable by the Concessionaire
to the Council. The concession fee is in return of the Concessionaire commercially managing
and deriving a commercial income from the Frameworks.
