Depaul Ireland is a cross-border charity supporting individuals and families who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. In the Republic of Ireland, Depaul operates accommodation and support services that require reliable access to durable, hygienic and good-value bedding products. This competition is for the supply of products. It is not a laundry-services contract. Following a Preliminary Market Consultation, Depaul has structured the requirement into separate Lots and simplified tender-stage evidence so that SMEs and specialist suppliers can participate while appropriate quality, safety and value-for-money requirements are maintained.
