About PlanningBrief
Public Irish construction data, made easier to use.
PlanningBrief gathers source-linked public planning, appeals, tender and construction-resource information so trades, suppliers, consultants and local businesses can see what is happening without living inside government portals.
What the site does
From public records to practical leads.
The site republishes selected fields from official public registers and open-data sources: planning applications, An Coimisiún Pleanála cases, TED/eTenders procurement data, historical BCMS commencement records and official construction forms or safety resources.
Every lead is linked back to its official source where available. PlanningBrief is a discovery layer, not a substitute for the council file, tender pack, HSA guidance or professional advice.
For a fuller source-by-source explanation, see Data sources and methodology.
PlanningBrief is an independent Irish construction-data project, built to turn fragmented public information into useful pages for people working around construction demand.
Data and privacy
Source-linked and deliberately limited.
The site avoids harvesting personal phone numbers or email addresses. Applicant and agent names are shown only where they appear on the public planning register, and the privacy page includes a removal request route.
