Aggregated Mini-Competition under Dynamic Purchasing System
The Office of Government Procurement has launched an aggregated mini-competition for natural gas supply to Ireland's education sector, with an estimated contract value of €94.2m over the framework period.
The procurement uses a dynamic purchasing system (DPS), a standing arrangement that allows suppliers to join and bid for work throughout its lifetime rather than a single closed tender round. An aggregated mini-competition pools demand from multiple public bodies to negotiate better terms and reduce procurement costs across government.
The notice was published on 7 June 2026. Suppliers interested in competing should consult the full tender documentation on the TED procurement portal for eligibility criteria, lot structures, and submission procedures specific to this education sector gas supply framework.
