Procurement

Our procurement team aims to maximise the significant buying power of the group to attract competition and to be viewed as a customer of choice. We are committed to:

• Fostering innovation
• Eliminating process waste
• Reducing total cost
• Delivering maximum value to our customers

How we buy

We believe supplier diversity aids our competitive advantage.  The Irish government’s electronic tendering platform eTenders, which is administered by the Office of Government Procurement is utilised when managing tender processes (where applicable).

Terms and conditions for goods or services will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis . Our  Suppliers Trading Terms and Conditions  will apply, in the absence of a formal contract.

An Post Code of Conduct for Suppliers

Our reputation for honest, friendly, and efficient service has won us the trust and confidence of the people we interact with. The protection of this reputation is important to us and a key ingredient for our continuing success. 

The An Post “Code of Conduct for Suppliers” is intended to guide the conduct of suppliers, sub-contractors, and agents where services are being provided to An Post.
 

Supplier Resource Guide

Our Suppliers Resource Guide aims to equip participating suppliers with resources which may be of assistance to bolster their sustainability efforts and drive continuous improvement across operations. Through this guide we strive to:

• Enhance suppliers’ environmental awareness and expertise
• Promote a culture of sustainability amongst suppliers
• Guide suppliers by providing information and resources that offer targeted education and training, which may help to facilitate the acquisition of  new skills and competencies
