EPC is the provision of energy services with a guaranteed outcome. This means that the successful candidate for each project will provide the Framework Purchaser with a contractual guarantee of achieved savings and return on investment. Codema, on behalf of the four Dublin Local Authorities (DLAs), is the authority responsible for this procurement process. The framework applies to the four local authorities in the Dublin region – Dublin City Council, Fingal County Council, Dun-Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, and South Dublin County Council, hereinafter referred to as the Framework Purchasers. Call-off contracts from this Framework Agreement will be directly between the relevant Framework Purchaser and the Framework Member/successful tenderer.
