eTenders Ireland: 434 open tenders & portal guide
Tenderwatch is an independent monitoring service, not the official portal. This page pulls live data from Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) and refreshes daily. To log in, submit a tender, or download official notice documents, visit etenders.gov.ie.
What is live on eTenders today, and what closes first
434 Irish public tenders are open for bidding right now. 10 of them close inside the next seven days, the first on 6 November 2026. Professional Services is the busiest sector with 120 open notices. Health Service Executive (HSE) is the most active buyer.
The portal lists only what is currently advertised. A notice that closes drops off it, even though the award can be months away.

Using eTenders Ireland: login, registration & alerts
eTenders is the Irish Government's official e-procurement platform operated by the Office of Government Procurement (OGP) at etenders.gov.ie. Public sector buyers in Ireland are required to advertise contracts above national thresholds (€50,000 for goods and services, €200,000 for works) on the portal.
eTenders login and supplier registration. Supplier registration on etenders.gov.ie is free. Once logged in to your supplier account, you can express interest in an open Competition For Tender (CfT), download the RFT documentation pack, ask clarification questions through the messaging module, and upload your electronic bid response before the closing deadline.
CPV codes and alerts. When you register, you can set up email alerts filtered by CPV codes (the EU procurement taxonomy). Getting your CPV codes right is the single most useful thing you can do after registering, because alerts based on broad codes generate noise while codes that are too narrow miss relevant notices. Our CPV code finder lets you search the full 9,000-code vocabulary.
Search and filter. The portal has a search bar and category filter, but it shows only currently advertised notices. If a notice has closed, it moves off the active list even though the award may be months away. This is why Tenderwatch tracks status and closing dates from TED independently: you can see what is closing this week across the full open set without logging in.
How to bid. For a step-by-step walkthrough of registration, profile setup, responding to an ITT, and what to send with a tender submission, read the step-by-step supplier guide to eTenders.gov.ie.

About this data
Tenderwatch is an independent service. Tender data is sourced from Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) via the TED Search API and refreshed daily. TED is an official EU data source but is a secondary publication: notices appear on eTenders first, then on TED within 1 to 3 days. Deadline times are unreliable; always check the official notice on etenders.gov.ie before submitting. Open count: 434 notices as at the most recent build.
