Department of Education Launches €100m Project Manager Framework as School Heat Pumps Go to Tender

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

The Department of Education and Youth is seeking suppliers for a €100m multi-operator framework for project managers and design consultants covering educational accommodation — one of the larger frameworks to hit the market this month. The same department is simultaneously tendering its Schools Energy Pathfinder heat pump programme, signalling a broad capital push across the schools estate.

Professional Services

ESB’s €9m Leadership, Culture and Organisational Capability Services Framework is the standout notice here, covering what the board describes as organisational development consultancy. Limerick and Clare ETB and the Health Research Board are each running €5m temporary agency staff frameworks with an October deadline, offering parallel opportunities for staffing suppliers.

Education

The Department of Education and Youth’s €100m project manager framework, closing 2 November, will shape who gets to manage school building and accommodation projects for years ahead — a must-watch notice for construction consultants. Separately, University of Limerick is procuring a €1.656m coastal autonomous surface vehicle through the Education Procurement Service, a niche but high-value equipment opportunity.
