How Public Procurement Works in Senegal

Public buyers in Senegal advertise the bulk of their contracts through SYGMAP (ARMP).

Tender documents are generally issued in French, and contract values are denominated in the West African CFA franc (XOF). Tracking SYGMAP (ARMP) together with the multilateral and bilateral sources on BidsFactory gives the most complete view of the Senegal market.
