In this episode, we dive into Guidance Note GN 2.3.1.3, which details the minimum standards for assessing the suitability of works contractors under both the open and restricted procurement procedures. This guidance note is essential for establishing criteria that contractors must meet to be eligible for public works projects, ensuring they have the capability, experience, and financial stability to fulfill contract requirements. We’ll explore the development of suitability criteria, such as technical capacity, health and safety standards, and financial thresholds, and discuss how these are applied in different procurement scenarios to maintain project standards and mitigate risk. This episode offers a comprehensive look at how public procurement in Ireland aims to select only the most qualified contractors for government projects.
