The number of contracts for the supply of goods or services concluded between the aforementioned company and the Irish Prison Service (IPS) are 101 since 1999.
The first two tables show information that has previously been supplied to the PAC in 2008 and they show the works carried out by the aforementioned company up to the end of 2007. This information was the subject of intense scrutiny by the C&AG and the Public Accounts Committee in 2008. Following on from the 2008 C&AG Annual Report, the IPS implemented construction frameworks for tendering large capital works, for projects up to €5m, commencing in 2008. A further similar framework was implemented in 2011. These frameworks are operated under EU tendering guidelines to ensure that the process is open and transparent. For projects of over €5m a separate EU tender exercise is advertised to the market as a whole.
There were 6 successful construction companies admitted to the 2011 framework. These 6 pre-approved companies are invited to tender for each capital project identified under the framework.
Each tender under the framework is evaluated and awarded under a set award criteria for frameworks with marks available for cost and technical merit. The last table shows the works carried out by the aforementioned company since 2008 under these new tendering arrangements.
