PROCUREMENT PROCESS
Procurement of goods or services with an estimated value greater than $50,000 handled via competitive bid or proposal processes, with public notice at Current Procurement Opportunities.
The Bank may pre-qualify suppliers for a specific procurement via a published request for pre-qualification document (Pre-Qualification Inquiry or PQI) and via invitation to identified potential suppliers when it is in the best interest of the Bank to ensure, in advance of competition, that solicitations are extended only to capable suppliers.
The PQI process is intended to provide the Bank with sufficient data on a potential supplier’s organization, capacity, experience, performance and financial condition to determine its qualifications to perform. Potential suppliers can register online through the Supplier Registration Form and should note that the IDB is not an agency of the US Federal Government, and is not subject to procurement laws enacted by federal, state or local governments in the United States.
For more detailed information on doing business with the IDB, please review the IDB Supplier Guide.
