Procurement Intelligence
Children's Health Ireland (CHI) is the national paediatric healthcare service for Ireland, bringing together the paediatric services of Crumlin, Temple Street and Tallaght and acting as the future operator of the new National Children’s Hospital on the St James’s campus. It is a major acute hospital authority with substantial capital and ICT responsibilities linked to the National Children’s Hospital project, including core ICT infrastructure and an Epic-based electronic health record (EHR) environment.[6][9][3] Core procurement categories include specialised **healthcare equipment and laboratory services**, large-scale **ICT and clinical systems**, **construction and engineering works** for hospital infrastructure and plant, and **facilities management** and building services such as fire doors and HVAC systems.[1][3][5][12] CHI also procures a wide range of professional services, including design team services for capital projects, and niche medical technologies such as managed laboratory services and point-of-care 3D printing ecosystems for the new children’s hospital.[1][2][5]
Strategic Context
CHI’s procurement profile is heavily shaped by the National Children’s Hospital capital and commissioning programme, for which government-approved budget sanctions now total about €2.24 billion, including €1.88 billion for construction and €360 million for integration, transition, ICT and the EHR programme.[6][14] Within this, CHI is running an extensive ICT and digital-health investment programme (Epic EHR, ambient voice recognition, environmental monitoring, specialist printing and core ICT infrastructure), alongside ongoing capital works and lifecycle replacement projects (e.g. HVAC, facilities upgrades) under the HSE capital plan (€1.33 billion for healthcare construction and equipping in 2025).[3][7][9][12][15] These programmes mean CHI’s demand for construction, facilities, ICT and clinical technology suppliers will remain strong through commissioning and transition into full operation of the new hospital.
Typical Suppliers
- Specialist healthcare and diagnostics companies providing **managed laboratory services**, blood sciences analyzers, reagents and consumables to the CHI Department of Paediatric Laboratory Medicine.[1]
- Major **health ICT and software vendors and systems integrators** supplying Epic EHR-related services, ambient voice recognition solutions, environmental monitoring systems and core ICT infrastructure for the National Children’s Hospital.[3][7][9][13]
- Construction and building services contractors delivering **mechanical and electrical plant**, such as CSSD HVAC system air handling units and heat pumps, as well as broader hospital construction and engineering works.[12][6]
- Facilities management and building safety firms providing **fire door inspection and maintenance**, temperature monitoring solutions for catering and special feeds aligned to HACCP, and other ongoing FM services.[5]
- Professional services and design consultancies appointed for **design team and project management roles** on CHI capital programmes and hospital fit-out projects.[5]
Supplier Tips
- Align offers with CHI’s digital and commissioning roadmap: emphasise proven integration with Epic EHR, hospital ICT standards and clinical safety requirements, referencing capabilities in areas such as ambient voice recognition, environmental monitoring and managed laboratory services where relevant.[3][7][13]
- Monitor CHI’s notices and prior-information requests for early engagement opportunities, as CHI has used market sounding (e.g. for ambient voice recognition technology) and publishes detailed technical scopes; suppliers should be ready with concise capability statements and interoperability evidence when responding to such engagements.[7]
- For construction and facilities opportunities, demonstrate experience in live acute hospital environments and statutory compliance (e.g. HVAC replacement in CSSD, fire door maintenance, HACCP-compliant temperature monitoring), and be prepared for electronic-only tender submission and structured evaluation via the national e-procurement platforms that CHI consistently uses.[5][9][12]
