    Brief

    The Education and Training Boards (ETBs) in Ireland are establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline the procurement of schoolbooks for multi-faith community national schools, post-primary schools, and further education colleges. This framework agreement aims to create an open, competitive marketplace where approved suppliers can provide books on an ongoing basis. Key benefits include volume discounts that reduce overall costs, simplified procurement processes with lower administrative burden, and support for sustainable and environmentally friendly delivery solutions. Eligible suppliers should be prepared to offer competitive pricing, reliable fulfillment, and sustainable practices to meet the educational needs of institutions across Ireland.
