Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board

Procurement Intelligence

Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board (CMETB) is a statutory education authority responsible for post‑primary schools, further education, and training provision across Cavan and Monaghan. It is headquartered in Monaghan, with a sub‑office in Cavan Town, and manages multiple schools, Further Education (FE) centres, and training facilities across both counties.[1][2] As an ETB, it procures a mix of education services, training provision, construction works for school and campus infrastructure, facilities management, ICT, and professional services.[1][2] CMETB is also a participating authority in multi‑supplier framework agreements for contracted training, indicating regular procurement of external training providers across various vocational disciplines.[1]

Strategic Context

Recent documentation shows CMETB listed as a participating Education and Training Board in regional multi‑supplier frameworks for contracted training, reflecting ongoing investment in labour‑market aligned further education and training programmes.[1] Like other ETBs, its capital and current spending is largely driven by Department of Education and SOLAS allocations, with capital works linked to school building, refurbishment, and expansion of training facilities; tender activity on eTenders indicates continuing use of national procurement platforms and framework approaches for planned programmes.[2][3] Suppliers should expect CMETB’s procurement to track national priorities in skills, apprenticeships, and school infrastructure rather than ad‑hoc local spending.
