Procurement Intelligence

Kerry Education and Training Board (Kerry ETB) is a central government authority responsible for education and training delivery across County Kerry. Operating a centralised procurement model through its Centralised Procurement and Purchasing Unit (CPPU), Kerry ETB manages procurement for goods, services, and capital works across multiple education and training facilities. The organisation procures IT technical support, contracted training services, electrical consumables, and infrastructure maintenance, with specialist procurement handled by the Technology, Estates and Sustainability department.

Strategic Context

Kerry ETB is implementing its Strategy Statement 2023–2027, positioning itself as a leader in education and training while advancing sustainability targets aligned with the Government's Climate Action Plan by 2030. The authority has strengthened compliance following a 2016 audit that identified €1.07m in non-compliant spending; it has since revised procurement policies, recruited dedicated procurement officers, and committed to using Office of Government Procurement frameworks. Current open tenders valued at €2.9m indicate active capital and operational investment across IT infrastructure, training services, and facilities maintenance.
