OGP Launches €150m Cleaning Supplies Framework as DCC Seeks Flood Defence Design Team

This week's standout Irish public tenders — what to watch and where the deadlines fall.

The Office of Government Procurement’s €150m single-supplier framework for cleaning and hygiene products dominates this week’s notices, signalling a major consolidation of State purchasing power. Meanwhile, Dublin City Council is seeking an integrated design team for the Clontarf Flood Defence and Public Realm Project, with a €7.5m fee framework closing 15 October.

Facilities

The Office of Government Procurement’s €150m framework for cleaning, paper, and period equality products is the standout notice, closing 29 October — single-supplier structure means one bidder takes all. Dublin City Council is also running a €35m framework for artistic lighting installations, with Cork County Council’s €3.5m County Hall facilities maintenance contract closing 12 October for firms seeking regional work.

Construction

Clare County Council’s €30m relief road scheme at Ennistymon’s Blakes Corner has no deadline listed yet, but the SAQ stage signals early-mover advantage for contractors tracking it.

Environment

Dublin Port Company is building a multi-party hydrographic survey framework valued at €2m, with no deadline yet published — worth monitoring for marine survey firms.
