What government contracts are available in Northern Ireland?

Northern Ireland's public procurement is highly centralised: the Construction and Procurement Delivery (CPD) unit tenders for most departments, alongside centres of procurement expertise for health (PaLS), education, housing (NIHE) and utilities. Notices publish through eTendersNI. Eleven councils handle local services, and the Northern Ireland Housing Executive is one of the UK's largest social-housing buyers.

Register on eTendersNI — it is the single gateway for almost everything, and CPD's pipeline notices give unusually good forward visibility. Social-value scoring (minimum 10% under NI's Procurement Policy Note 01/21) applies to most tenders; for construction and maintenance, NIHE's cyclical programmes are the recurring prize and prequalification through its frameworks is the entry ticket.

Tendarix has indexed 129 contracts in Northern Ireland, each with a plain-English AI summary. The top-buyers list shows the procurement teams here that buy most often — the ones worth registering with as a supplier.
