Summary of the contracting process

Northern Ireland Electricity Networks Limited has completed the procurement process for the "C380 (2024) - Manufacture and Supply of Informational Signage". This framework agreement, covering the supply of various signage types including Aluminium Signs, Plastic Signs, Printed Tapes, Printed Belts, and Vitreous Enamel Signs, was intended to serve the entire NIE Networks infrastructure in regions such as sub-stations, offices, and depots. Valued between £982,995 and £1,730,001, the framework operates under a negotiated procedure with prior call for competition. The awards were made in October 2024, with the procurement stage being the Award phase. The procurement is classified under CPV code 22000000 (Printed matter and related products) and involves selective procurement methods.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specializing in printed and informational signage, as it highlights a substantial demand for signage products across NIE Networks' extensive infrastructure. The contracts, which can be extended up to eight years, provide a stable and long-term growth opportunity for suppliers, particularly those that can meet the quality and cost criterions established by NIE Networks. OB Construction, an SME based in Knockcloghrim, secured the active contracts for Aluminium and Plastic Signs, illustrating the competitive yet achievable nature of this tender for smaller enterprises in the signage sector.
