Details

Safefood invites tenders from suitably qualified and experienced contractors for the removal and replacement of existing carpet tiles at its Cork offices at 7 Eastgate Avenue, Eastgate, Little Island, Cork, T45 RX01. The works comprise the removal of existing carpet tiles across an approximate total floor area of 720 square metres, their safe and sustainable disposal, and the supply and installation of new commercial-grade carpet tiles. The required carpet specification is ModuLyss DSGN Absolute or ModuLyss First Define, 1/10th Gauge nylon loop pile, 730g/m² pile weight, or equivalent. The offices will remain furnished, and the works will therefore include the movement and repositioning of office furniture as necessary to facilitate removal and installation. There may also be a requirement to relocate a small number of existing floor boxes within the open-plan areas. The existing floor is a suspended steel floor with floor boxes. Safefood's preference is for all works to be completed by 26 October 2026. Where this is not achievable, a phased approach may be accepted, with Area B to be completed by 26 October 2026 and Areas A and C by 30 October 2026. Tenderers are required to provide a full cost breakdown in euro, with VAT identified separately, together with the proposed timeframe for completion of the works. Full details of the requirements, specifications, submission requirements and award criteria are set out in the Request for Tender documentation.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this construction & infrastructure opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
