Who Won Irish Public Contracts - Week of 26 October-01 November 2026

Browse the full Awards index for every recently awarded Irish public contract — updated daily.

One professional services contract accounts for EUR1 in every EUR1.27 awarded this week

Irish public bodies published 75 contract awards with a combined disclosed value of EUR700.48m across the 72 notices that report a figure between 26 October and 01 November 2026.

Professional Services and other accounted for 36 of 75 awards (48 percent) and EUR637.95m (91 percent) of the value.

Before the named-winner table: 72 awards larger than the 0th-ranked named win do not disclose a supplier in structured form and sit outside the table below. These are typically confidential framework awards or multi-tenderer frameworks:

• MetroLink Programme Delivery Partner Support Services - Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) - EUR550.00m
• 7381-Provision of security services - Iarnród Eireann-Irish Rail - EUR40.00m
• ENQEIR944 –Telecoms Consultancy, Network Support Services, Asset Management, Telecoms and - EirGrid plc - EUR18.00m
• Pro385 - The Land Development Agency - EUR10.00m
• Design of Aerial Fibre Optical Cables System - Electricity Supply Board ( ESB ) - EUR9.80m

What stood out

• The 10 largest contracts take EUR658.42m, or 94.0 percent of the week’s EUR700.48m total. The remaining 65 awards share EUR42.06m between them.
• Professional Services and other dominated: 36 of 75 awards (48 percent) and EUR637.95m (91 percent) of the disclosed value.
• 7 of the 75 notices were framework or multi-party framework awards, worth EUR34.45m in aggregate. These set ceilings rather than committed spend, so actual drawdowns will land below the headline figures.

Most active buyers this week

Contracting authorities ranked by number of award notices published. Counts include notices where a named winner was not published, so a buyer’s count here can exceed its appearances in the named-awards table above.

About this data

All figures on this page come directly from the official TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) procurement database, the European Union’s legal publication record for public contracts. Winner names are extracted from the structured XML lodged with each award notice.

This post is generated automatically each Monday from award notices published in the previous seven days. No AI-generated narrative has been applied to the figures: counts, totals and rankings are computed deterministically from the source JSON.

Known limitations:

• TED publishes award notices with a typical lag of 1-3 days after eTenders.gov.ie. Very recent awards may not appear until next week’s roundup.
• Estimated values are reported as supplied by the contracting authority on the notice itself. They may differ from the final contract value actually paid.
• A share of award notices do not expose a named winner in structured form (typically confidential awards, multi-tenderer frameworks, or older notice formats). These are counted in the totals above but do not appear in the named-winner tables.
• Some notices publish a nominal estimated value of EUR1 as a placeholder when the real figure is confidential. These appear in the named-awards table as EUR1 and are not errors - they are how TED allows authorities to decline to disclose a value.
• Contract modifications (can-modif notices) and prior-information notices are excluded; only standard and social-services award notices are included.
• Always verify any figure against the linked TED notice before making a commercial or editorial decision based on it.
