For the detailed requirements and relevant documentation, please see the Call for Competition, published on OJEU ref 6868206 https://www.etenders.gov.ie/epps/cft/viewTenders.do?resourceId=6868206 EirGrid and SONI are currently developing the Future Arrangements of System Services (FASS) which includes the development and implementation of a new set of arrangements to replace the existing System Services procurement mechanism (DS3 System Services (DS3)). The existing DS3 arrangements were designed to meet the 2020 renewable targets of 40% RES-E and are not sufficient for Ireland and Northern Ireland to achieve targets of 80% renewable generation by 2030. The new set of arrangements aim to drive investment in an efficient manner to ensure the all-island power system can continue to be operated safely and securely. In April 2022 the SEM Committee (SEMC) published its High-Level Design for the SSFA as set out in SEM-22-012. EirGrid and SONI, in their respective capacities as Transmission System Operator in Ireland and Northern Ireland respectively are supporting the SEMC in the development of its High-Level Design (HLD) into an implementable solution. The Regulatory Authorities (RAs) have requested the TSOs to implement these arrangements to achieve the RES-E targets and to ensure compliance with the relevant aspects of European legislation such as the European Balancing Guidelines (EBGL) and the Clean Energy Package. On 8th December 2023, the SEMC released a decision paper on the Detailed Design and Implementation of Future Arrangements of System Services (SEM-23-103). As set out in the decision paper, the RAs have proposed to proceed with the Day Ahead System Services Auction (DASSA). The decision paper sets out a number of workstreams for the TSOs to commence, which includes a secondary market via a central platform where market participants can bilaterally trade their DASSA positions on a half hourly basis. The DASSA is scheduled to go live from May 2027. Elements of the DASSA design require collateral coverage to manage credit risk to the TSOs. These elements include but are not limited to secondary trading, any performance related payments due to the TSOs (e.g. DASSA compensation payments) and resettlement. The TSOs require a third-party provider to assume the credit risk for these FASS Collateral Arrangements and host the requirements outlined in the scope of requirements section below. The Opportunity EirGrid plc intends to establish a single supplier framework. The supplier will assume and manage credit risk for the FASS Collateral Arrangements on behalf of EirGrid plc and SONI Limited. The Framework Agreement will encompass further credit management related services agreed during negotiations. EirGrid plc is acting as lead contracting authority and its group company, SONI Limited will benefit from services under the Framework. As such and in compliance with SONI Limited’s ob... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/enqeir983-fass-credit-management-services-ocds-h6vhtk-05d699) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 48100000, 48700000, 66100000, 75100000, 79200000 - **Delivery regions:** IE - **Delivery countries in notice:** IE - **Estimated Value:** €1,071,453 - **Contract Period:** 31/03/2026 to 31/03/2031 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F069522-2025) - **Last Source Update:** 2025-10-29T16:15:39.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-22T05:32:27.734Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-05d699
