Architect Led Multi Disciplinary Design Team for the Delivery of a Water Activity Centre in Carlow Town, Co. Carlow

About the buyer

Carlow County Council is the local authority for County Carlow, and procurement across the council is largely devolved to individual departments. Each department sources its own goods, services and works before a tender reaches the market. Framework buying runs through Office of Government Procurement category arrangements spanning professional services, ICT and fleet and plant. The procurement unit oversees compliance with EU rules on transparency, non-discrimination and equal treatment.

Over the past 5 years, most of Carlow County Council's contract awards have been in construction work, architectural and engineering services and transport equipment.
