Procurement in UNDP: Solicitation procedures for the procurement of goods, services and works

UNDP procures goods and services through competitive solicitations. The following methods are used for the procurement of goods and services:

Request for Quotation (RFQ)

The most flexible and least formal method that is applied for procuring goods, services and/or works. RFQ’s call for a written quotation.

RFQ applies to contracts exceeding the range $2,500 but less than $100,000

Invitation to Bid (ITB)

An ITB is normally used whenever the entity is not required to propose technical approaches to a project activity, or to offer management or supervision of an activity. ITB’s are used when the entity is to provide its cost requirements to meet precise specifications sought from UNDP. This is normally the case when UNDP buys goods. It may also apply to work contracts and services that can be expressed quantitatively and qualitatively.

ITB applies to contracts exceeding $100,000

Request for Proposal (RFP)

RFP is used when the inputs and/or outputs cannot be quantitatively and qualitatively expressed at the time the invitation is made, as for example consulting or similar services are sought. A RFP may also be used for purchase of complex goods when you are not sure of the functional specifications and wish to seek proposals.

RFP applies to contracts exceeding $100,000.00

Frequently Asked Questions

 

1. How can I register as a supplier to the United Nations Development Programme?

Interested companies can register with the Interagency Procurement Service Office in Denmark (IAPSO) using the following registration form. Companies are also encouraged to register with the UN Common Supplier Database   and the individual UNDP country offices.

2. Where can I find information on procurement notices?

Please see procurement notices

3. How can I find out whether my range of products or services is procured by UNDP?

UNDP Country offices provide information on ongoing projects and types of services and goods procured through their web sites. Please see the list of UNDP country office web sites.

The Annual Statistical Report from IAPSO provides detailed information about previous major contract and goods procured by UNDP and UN agencies.

4. Are UNDP purchases tax/duty free?

Yes.

5. Can small companies also enter into business relationships with UNDP?

Yes, absolutely. UNDP’s procurement decisions are not based on the size of a company, but on the quality, price effectiveness and responsiveness of the offer.
