Details

The aim of this project is to study the commuting patterns of residents in County Carlow and to quantify the economic and workforce potential represented by the county's commuter population. This will be achieved by analysing commuter profiles, understanding employment and skills trends, and measuring the desire of commuters to live and work within Carlow. The study will also identify the key locations across the county where skills, talent and commuter populations are currently concentrated. It is intended that Carlow County Council, in partnership with the successful provider, will stimulate interest in and raise awareness of the project during the online commuter survey phase of the study. The findings will inform the preparation of a comprehensive report that will support future economic development, enterprise growth, workforce planning and place-making initiatives across County Carlow. The study will further identify areas within the county where significant pools of skills and talent currently reside, as well as locations with high levels of outward commuting. This evidence base will help shape strategic actions aimed at attracting investment, supporting indigenous enterprise, fostering remote and blended working opportunities, and enhancing the attractiveness of County Carlow as a location to live, work and do business.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this financial & professional services opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
