Meet the judges behind the National Procurement Awards 2025

The National Procurement Awards bring together a panel of highly experienced professionals who collectively bring deep expertise from across procurement, supply chain management, academia, and public and private sectors. This diverse and knowledgeable group ensures a rigorous, fair, and thorough judging process that truly recognises excellence in procurement across Ireland.

What sets our judges apart is their passion for innovation and transformation. They value entries that demonstrate creative problem-solving and the ability to drive efficiency in procurement operations. Sustainability is a core focus—judges prioritise organisations that embed environmental responsibility and long-term viability into their procurement strategies.

Collaboration also ranks highly in their assessment. Judges appreciate how strong partnerships and stakeholder engagement lead to enhanced value and successful outcomes. Equally important is leadership: judges look for strategic vision and the ability to guide teams effectively toward ambitious procurement goals.

Their combined expertise and clear criteria ensure that the National Procurement Awards celebrate organisations and individuals who are not just performing well but truly advancing the procurement profession in meaningful ways.

As the 2025 awards approach, our judges are eager to see how entrants embody these values and continue to raise the bar for procurement excellence.
