Recent procurement activity includes large multi-supplier training-service frameworks and capital-design frameworks supporting education facilities.[1][2][3][4]
Strategic Context
A major strategic purchasing driver is the 2024–2028 integrated design framework for energy retrofitting and other capital works across ETB schools and further-education centres; the programme covers project categories up to €10 million and has a stated notional value of approximately €60 million to €180 million including VAT and fees.[5] WWETB also continues to procure specialist training delivery and apprenticeship-related goods, including automotive, HGV and agricultural vehicle consumables, while its procurement plan emphasises spend analysis, use of OGP/EPS frameworks, contract management, and annual tender work planning.[3][4] The current open-tender portfolio supplied in the brief indicates four live competitions with a combined estimated value of €1.075 million.

Supplier Tips
- Monitor eTenders and WWETB procurement notices continuously, and register for the authority's electronic tendering requirements; WWETB publishes supplier guidance and expects central procurement involvement for purchases above €25,000.[3]

- For training and apprenticeship opportunities, prepare evidence of delivery capacity across Waterford and Wexford, qualified instructors, learner outcomes, safeguarding, quality assurance, and the ability to respond to centre-level call-off competitions under multi-supplier frameworks.[4][7]
