About the buyer

HSE is described as the State's largest public sector purchaser. HSE tenders above national thresholds are advertised on eTenders, Ireland's state procurement platform. Contracts above EU thresholds appear in the Official Journal of the European Union. HSE Procurement, the central commercial team, negotiates national framework agreements and manages large contracts. Individual hospitals, community health bodies and local HSE regions can source lower-value contracts directly. A single helpdesk handles procurement queries from suppliers.
