    Brief

    The Irish Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline the supply of physical schoolbooks and eBooks to eligible secondary schools under the Free Education Scheme. This central procurement framework will serve Community and Comprehensive Schools, and Voluntary Secondary Schools (excluding ETB-managed schools) for the 2025/2026 academic year and beyond. The DPS aims to simplify the book procurement process for schools by creating a standardized, efficient purchasing mechanism. Suppliers interested in participating should note that this is an ongoing framework agreement opportunity allowing multiple suppliers to compete for orders. The system will provide schools with pre-approved vendors and simplified ordering procedures for both print and digital educational materials.
