Before the named-winner table: 79 awards larger than the 0th-ranked named win do not disclose a supplier in structured form and sit outside the table below. These are typically confidential framework awards or multi-tenderer frameworks:

• Single Party Framework Agreement for Quay Walls and Marine and Civil Engineering Works at - Unknown - EUR200.00m
• Lehenaghmore Road Improvement Scheme - Unknown - EUR20.79m
• Lot 1 - Unknown - EUR20.00m
• Award of a contract for the management of Rapid Build Accommodation for Beneficiaries of - Unknown - EUR18.36m
• Development Agreement with Stage Payments- DDB - Unknown - EUR12.92m

What stood out

• The 10 largest contracts take EUR311.82m, or 88.6 percent of the week’s EUR351.80m total. The remaining 75 awards share EUR39.98m between them.
• Construction and professional services dominated: 41 of 85 awards (48 percent) and EUR292.37m (83 percent) of the disclosed value.
• 5 of the 85 notices were framework or multi-party framework awards, worth EUR202.05m in aggregate. These set ceilings rather than committed spend, so actual drawdowns will land below the headline figures.
• Week on week: total value down 79.0 percent (EUR1675.22m last week, EUR351.80m this week); awards down 35 (was 120, now 85).

About this data

All figures on this page come directly from the official TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) procurement database, the European Union’s legal publication record for public contracts. Winner names are extracted from the structured XML lodged with each award notice.

This post is generated automatically each Monday from award notices published in the previous seven days. No AI-generated narrative has been applied to the figures: counts, totals and rankings are computed deterministically from the source JSON.

Known limitations:

• TED publishes award notices with a typical lag of 1-3 days after eTenders.gov.ie. Very recent awards may not appear until next week’s roundup.
• Estimated values are reported as supplied by the contracting authority on the notice itself. They may differ from the final contract value actually paid.
• A share of award notices do not expose a named winner in structured form (typically confidential awards, multi-tenderer frameworks, or older notice formats). These are counted in the totals above but do not appear in the named-winner tables.
• Some notices publish a nominal estimated value of EUR1 as a placeholder when the real figure is confidential. These appear in the named-awards table as EUR1 and are not errors - they are how TED allows authorities to decline to disclose a value.
• Contract modifications (can-modif notices) and prior-information notices are excluded; only standard and social-services award notices are included.
• Always verify any figure against the linked TED notice before making a commercial or editorial decision based on it.
