Other Procurement Briefing
Weekly Overview
This week's Other sector procurement activity in Ireland is broadly diverse, spanning logistics, environmental services, infrastructure, energy, and hospitality. Twelve active tenders are tracked, ranging from a modest €65,000 wood kiln installation to a landmark €100 million haulage Dynamic Purchasing System from Coillte, reflecting the wide operational footprint of Irish public and semi-state bodies. Several opportunities carry open or TBC deadlines, suggesting buyers are still finalising scope or running market engagement processes, which presents early-mover advantage for well-prepared suppliers.
