Procurement Intelligence

City of Dublin Education and Training Board (CDETB) is the statutory body responsible for further education, training and some second‑level provision in the Dublin city area, including colleges of further education and adult education centres. It manages significant public funding for teaching, training, learner support services and associated administrative functions, and procures a wide range of goods, works and services to support these operations. Typical procurement categories include educational services and curricula support, ICT infrastructure and managed services, facilities management and building works, and learner support and welfare services. The authority uses the national eTenders platform for its public competitions and maintains a central purchasing function (purchasing@cdetb.ie, +353 17077777) for procurement coordination.[1]

Strategic Context

As an Education and Training Board, CDETB’s spending profile is driven by Department of Education and SOLAS funding streams, with a strong emphasis on further education, skills development, apprenticeships and lifelong learning. Strategic priorities include maintaining and upgrading education facilities, expanding digital and blended learning capacity, and ensuring inclusive access to education and training, which in turn sustains demand for capital projects, ICT systems, and student support services. Its procurement activities are shaped by national public procurement policy and the ETB sector’s shared frameworks, which can result in aggregated or collaborative competitions for common goods and services.

Typical Suppliers

Further education and training providers offering specialist programmes or outsourced training services aligned with SOLAS and Department of Education priorities
ICT companies supplying networks, end‑user devices, learning management systems, and managed IT support tailored to multi‑site education environments

Supplier Tips

Monitor CDETB notices on eTenders and review past award histories in similar ETB competitions to understand typical lot structures, evaluation criteria and framework usage before bidding.[1]
Align proposals clearly with ETB‑specific needs (multi‑site delivery, term‑time constraints, learner welfare, accessibility and digital inclusion) and demonstrate familiarity with Department of Education and SOLAS funding and compliance requirements.
Engage early via formal supplier briefings or clarification processes when advertised, and be prepared to offer scalable solutions that can be rolled out across multiple campuses or incorporated into sector‑wide frameworks used by ETBs.
