Engagement with Office of Public Works

Mr. John Conlon:

The C and AG raised concerns with the procurement which were addressed when we re-tendered that measured term contract in November 2021. It is a contract that provides us with a quick and efficient response across a wide range of areas for the delivery of services in the Dublin region where we have a huge number of properties. It allows us to do small and reactive call-outs, which we do every day. These are minor repairs of windows, plumbing, door handle repairs and that type of stuff. It allows us to plan maintenance work such as gutter cleaning and roof maintenance and allows us to do some small-scale projects.
