How IsDB Procurement Works

As a multilateral development bank, IsDB does not run most tenders directly: its borrowing governments and executing agencies conduct procurement while IsDB provides the financing and oversight. Notices, expressions of interest, and contract awards covering the Islamic Development Bank member countries are published through the Islamic Development Bank (isdb.org) in English, Arabic and French. Monitoring IsDB alongside national portals on BidsFactory captures both the bank-financed pipeline and the domestic procurement it co-finances.

Geographic Coverage

IsDB opportunities cover the Islamic Development Bank member countries.
