About the buyer

University College Dublin is a higher education institution, and its Procurement and Purchasing Function runs tendering for the whole university. Budget holders across the university draft specifications and sit on evaluation teams before any tender goes out. The Office of Government Procurement and the Education Procurement Service sometimes run tenders on UCD's behalf. Above the EU threshold, tenders run as a full EU-wide procedure rather than a national one.

Over the past 5 years, most of UCD's contract awards have been in laboratory and precision equipment, software and information systems and office and computing equipment.
