3 open notices
Baseline and endline studies, impact evaluations, third-party monitoring, household surveys, feasibility and market studies, and applied policy research for development programmes.
These are the organisations with the most research, studies & evaluation notices open in Bangladesh right now. Buyers in this sector tend to repeat — following the few that award the work you do is usually more productive than watching the market as a whole.
Since 27 Jul 2026, FreeTender has recorded 21 research, studies & evaluation notices in Bangladesh, 7 of them open today. The median bid window is 12 days, so plan to have documents ready before a notice appears.

Bangladesh procurement runs largely through the e-GP system operated by the Central Procurement Technical Unit, used by ministries, local government engineering bodies, utilities and development projects. Donor-funded contracts under World Bank, ADB and JICA financing follow the funder's own rules alongside national procedure.
Across the research, studies & evaluation notices we currently hold for Bangladesh, the most common form is the request for proposal, followed by open tender or invitation to bid. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.
Bidding requires e-GP registration, trade licence, tax and VAT registration, and a bank solvency certificate. Works tenders apply prior-experience and turnover tests, and joint ventures are common for larger packages where a single firm cannot meet the thresholds alone.
Research and evaluation assignments are commissioned by UN agencies, development banks, bilateral donors and international NGOs, and are almost always awarded on quality-and-cost rather than price alone — commonly 70:30 or 80:20 in favour of the technical proposal. The decisive elements are the proposed methodology, the named team and the evaluator's independence from the programme being assessed. Expect to be asked for a sampling frame, an analysis plan, ethics and safeguarding arrangements for research with human subjects, and prior assignments of comparable scope. Terms of reference frequently name a specific framework — the OECD-DAC criteria for evaluations, or a donor's own results framework — and a proposal that ignores it loses marks that were freely available. Data ownership and publication rights normally sit with the commissioning agency; check whether you may cite the work later.
Before committing effort, it is worth running a deliberate bid/no-bid decision and checking your submission against the responsiveness checklist.
