    Brief

    The Irish Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline the procurement and supply of schoolbooks and eBooks for Community and Comprehensive, and Voluntary Secondary Schools participating in the Free Education Scheme, excluding ETB (Education and Training Board) schools. This centralized procurement framework is designed for the 2025/2026 academic year and beyond. The system aims to simplify the book procurement process for eligible schools by creating a standardized supply chain. Suppliers interested in providing schoolbooks and eBooks through this system should note that this is a significant opportunity to serve multiple secondary schools across Ireland's Free Education Scheme. Eligible suppliers can join the DPS to become approved vendors, enabling them to bid on school orders placed through the centralized system.
