About Us
Bid intelligence for international development procurement: the opportunities that are open now, and the contracts that have already been won.
What is MangoFetch?
MangoFetch is a bid intelligence platform for international development procurement. It covers the tenders that are open for bidding right now and the contracts that have already been awarded, along with the suppliers who won them. Most procurement tools carry only the first of those, which tells you what exists without telling you what a competitive bid for it looks like.
The opportunities come from the official portals of the major development banks, United Nations agencies and bilateral donors, refreshed twice a day so deadlines are current rather than approximate. You can browse every open tender we hold or start from the most recently published. The contract award records go back through those same funders and are searchable by supplier, country, sector and awarding agency in the same way.
Two things set it apart from a search box, and they are why it was built AI-first in a sector that was not. You can describe what your organisation does in a sentence, in whatever language you think in, and get back tenders that match the meaning rather than the words, so a firm building solar mini-grids sees notices filed under “rural electrification” or “last-mile distribution”, each with a line explaining the match. Every tender also carries a plain-English brief covering scope, eligibility, value and closing date, taken from the official notice, because most of what a bid team does is rule opportunities out and that should take seconds rather than a PDF download. Both are running today for every member, at no cost beyond a free account.
Benchmarking your bids against what has already won
Deciding whether to bid is expensive long before the proposal is written, because you are committing the time of people who could be working on something else, usually without much idea of who else is in the room. Award notices are the public record of how that decision turned out for everyone who bid before you, and they are far more useful read as a set than one at a time. Each award we hold carries the awarding organisation, the country and the date, and where the funder publishes them, the winning supplier, the contract value, the evaluated price and the names of the firms that competed. Read across enough of them and you can see which suppliers keep winning particular kinds of work, what value band a given scope tends to land in, and how crowded the field usually is.
Coverage of those extra fields is uneven and we would rather say so. Some funders publish a full evaluation report naming every bidder and their price, others release the winner and nothing else, and where a field is missing from the source it is missing here too, since inventing a plausible number would be worse than showing a gap.
The funders and portals we cover
MangoFetch brings together procurement from the leading multilateral development banks, United Nations agencies and bilateral donors: the World Bank, the UN system through the UN Global Marketplace (UNDP, UNICEF, WHO, WFP, FAO, UNHCR, UNOPS and others), AfDB, ADB, AIIB, IDB, EBRD, the European Union, KfW, FMO, the Islamic Development Bank, bilateral agencies including GIZ, Enabel and AFD, and the U.S. State Department. The full list, with how often each one is checked, is on the sources page.
Each of the largest funders has its own daily-updated view of open opportunities:

Both halves of the market
Open tenders tell you what you could bid on. Awarded contracts tell you what winning actually looked like, and most procurement tools only carry the first of those.
Every major funder in one feed
Development banks, UN agencies and bilateral donors are covered together, so you can watch the whole market without keeping an account on a dozen separate portals.
Winners, values and rival bidders
Award notices record the supplier that won, the awarding agency, the country and, where the funder publishes them, the contract value and the other firms that bid.
A plain-English brief on every tender
Scope, eligibility, value and deadline, read out of the official notice, so ruling an opportunity out takes seconds instead of a PDF download.
Filtering that narrows to your work
Search by keyword, funder, country, sector, budget, posting date and deadline, then save the combination so the same view is waiting for you next time.
Search that understands the work
Describe what you do in a sentence, in any language, and MangoFetch ranks the tenders that match the meaning rather than the keywords, with a line on each explaining why. Work you would not have found by searching for it.
Alerts on your own criteria
A free account lets you save searches and receive new matching opportunities by email, which matters when a submission window is measured in weeks.
Start from your country or your sector
Most people arrive already knowing roughly where they work and what they supply, so the fastest route in is usually a country or a sector rather than a funder. Every country and sector we hold inventory for has its own page, showing what is currently open and how much of it there is. These are a few of the busiest:
If you would rather see the shape of the whole market before narrowing down, the intelligence dashboard covers funder activity and posting trends, and the country map shows where current activity is concentrated.
Who it’s for
MangoFetch is built for the people who bid on donor-funded work and for those who decide which bids are worth making: suppliers, contractors and manufacturers, consulting firms and independent consultants, NGOs and civil-society organisations, and the bid teams who carry the cost of pursuing something. Whatever you supply, from medical equipment and civil works to technical assistance, the same two questions apply: what is open, and what did the last comparable contract go for.

Frequently asked questions
What is MangoFetch?
MangoFetch is a bid intelligence platform for international development procurement. It brings together open procurement notices, calls for proposals and expressions of interest alongside contract award notices from the major development finance institutions, UN agencies and bilateral donors, so that you can see both what is available to bid on and what comparable work has already been awarded for.
How is this different from a tender alert service?
A tender alert tells you that an opportunity exists. It does not tell you whether the opportunity is worth the cost of bidding. Because MangoFetch also holds contract award notices, you can look up who has won similar work from the same funder in the same country, what those contracts were worth and how many other firms were competing, which is the information that decides whether a bid is realistic.
What information do the contract award records contain?
Every award record carries the awarding organisation, the country, the title of the contract and the date it was awarded. Where the funder publishes them, records also include the winning supplier, the contract value, the evaluated price and the other bidders who competed. Coverage of those extra fields varies by funder, because some publish full evaluation reports and others release little beyond the winner.
Which organisations and funders does MangoFetch track?
MangoFetch covers the World Bank, the UN system via the UN Global Marketplace (UNDP, UNICEF, WHO, WFP, FAO, UNHCR, UNOPS and more), the African Development Bank (AfDB), the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the European Union, KfW, FMO, the Islamic Development Bank, bilateral agencies such as GIZ, Enabel and AFD, and the U.S. State Department, among others.
Do I need an account to use MangoFetch?
No account is needed to search or browse, and both the tenders and the contract award records are open to everyone. An account adds saved searches, saved opportunities and email alerts when new listings match criteria you have set.
How often is the data updated?
Sources are refreshed twice a day, pulling new and updated notices from each official portal. Every tender shows its posting date and submission deadline, and every award shows the date it was published.
Who is MangoFetch for?
It is built for the people who decide what to bid on and then have to write the bid: suppliers, contractors and manufacturers, consulting firms and independent consultants, NGOs, and the bid and proposal teams inside development organisations.
