High Court of Justice of England and Wales, Royal Courts of Justice Price is not the only award criterion and all criteria are stated only in the procurement documents. LOT 2B: EPC for the HVAC underground cable system in Ireland (Dublin) As set out in the procurement documents (amended FIDIC Silver Book and Particular Conditions for the lot). Lot combinations: bidders for LOT 1A are also required to bid for LOT 1B, and bidders for LOT 1B are also required to bid for LOT 1A. Bidders for LOT 2A are also required to bid for LOT 2B, and bidders for LOT 2B are also required to bid for LOT 2A. The procurement process in respect of each of the Lots may result in a single contract being awarded to the successful contractor in that Lot (i.e. a single EPC contract which encompasses all elements of the project in that Lot). Alternatively, a number of different contracts may be awarded to the (same) successful contractor in the Lot, each covering a specific element(s) of the project. By way of example, in Lots 1A and 1B, the successful EPC contractor may be awarded a specific Long Term Service Agreement. Similarly, in Lots 2A and 2B, the successful EPC contractor may be awarded a specific Inspection, Maintenance and Repair Contract. In all of the Lots, the successful EPC contractor may be awarded a specific early works contract(s), which may for example encompass Front End Engineering Design and/or civil and structural enabling works.
