    Brief

    The Irish Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline schoolbook procurement for Education and Training Boards (ETBs) serving multi-faith community national schools, post-primary schools, and further education colleges. This framework agreement aims to reduce administrative costs and transaction complexity while enabling volume discounts for participating schools and suppliers. The DPS prioritizes sustainable and environmentally friendly delivery solutions, creating a centralized procurement mechanism that benefits all stakeholders through improved efficiency and cost savings. Qualified schoolbook suppliers can apply to join this system to provide books and related materials to ETB institutions across Ireland.
