The World Bank finances thousands of development projects each year, and the goods, works, consulting and non-consulting services for those projects are procured through open tenders. These opportunities are published on the World Bank’s procurement notices system, but they can be slow to search and hard to monitor alongside other funders.
This page pulls live World Bank notices into a single, searchable feed. Each listing links through to the full details, and from there to the official World Bank notice. You can see what was recently posted, when bids are due, and which country and sector each opportunity relates to.
World Bank procurement covers everything from large infrastructure works and equipment supply to technical assistance and individual consultant assignments, across client countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. To follow opportunities from other development banks and UN agencies too, use the main MangoFetch feed, which aggregates the World Bank alongside the African and Asian Development Banks, the EBRD, the EU and the UN system.
How World Bank procurement works
World Bank procurement follows the project cycle. When the Bank approves a loan or credit for a borrowing country, that government — not the Bank itself — runs the tenders to buy the goods, works and services the project needs, under the World Bank Procurement Framework and Procurement Regulations. The Bank reviews and oversees the process to keep it open, fair and transparent.
Opportunities are advertised as procurement notices. A General Procurement Notice (GPN) signals upcoming contracts early in a project, while Specific Procurement Notices (SPN), Requests for Bids (RFB) and Requests for Expressions of Interest (REOI) advertise individual contracts as they become ready. Following these notices is the most reliable way to spot World Bank-financed opportunities before deadlines pass.
Types of World Bank tender notices
World Bank-financed tenders appear in several forms. Request for Bids (RFB) and Request for Proposals (RFP) cover goods, works and larger services. Request for Expressions of Interest (REOI) is used to shortlist consulting firms before they are invited to submit proposals. Request for Quotations (RFQ) handles smaller, off-the-shelf purchases. Contract award notices record who won, which is useful competitive intelligence when preparing future bids.
Each notice specifies the borrowing country, the implementing agency, the sector, the procurement method and the submission deadline. On this page you can filter the live feed by country, sector and keyword to focus on the World Bank opportunities that match what your organisation supplies.
Who can bid on World Bank-financed contracts
World Bank-financed contracts are generally open to firms and individuals from member countries, including suppliers, contractors, consultants and NGOs. Eligibility, qualification and evaluation criteria are set out in each bidding document, and firms on the World Bank’s debarment list are excluded. Smaller firms can compete for national-level contracts, while larger international competitive bidding (ICB) contracts attract global suppliers.
How to find and win World Bank tenders
The practical workflow is: monitor new notices daily, identify contracts that fit your capabilities early (ideally at the GPN or REOI stage), download the bidding documents, and prepare a compliant, well-evidenced bid before the deadline. Registering interest early gives you time to form partnerships or joint ventures where a single firm can’t meet the qualification criteria alone.
MangoFetch helps with the first step — surfacing new World Bank notices the day they appear, alongside other development funders — so you never miss a relevant opportunity. Create a free account to save the World Bank tenders you’re tracking and set up filters for your sectors and countries.
The World Bank Group: IBRD, IDA, IFC and MIGA
The “World Bank” usually refers to the IBRD (International Bank for Reconstruction and Development) and IDA (International Development Association), which lend to governments. The wider World Bank Group also includes the IFC (International Finance Corporation), which works with the private sector, and MIGA (Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency). Most government-run procurement opportunities flow from IBRD- and IDA-financed projects, which is what this page focuses on.
