How they buy

Across the governance & public institutions notices we currently hold for Canada, the most common form is the request for proposal. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.

What qualifies you

Governance assignments are advisory and politically sensitive, and are contracted by UN agencies, development banks and bilateral programmes working alongside a host-government counterpart. Selection weighs the seniority and regional experience of named experts heavily — a proposal usually stands or falls on its team CVs and on evidence of comparable reform work in a similar administrative system. Language capability is often a hard requirement rather than a preference. Because the counterpart is a ministry or an independent commission, deliverables tend to be diagnostics, draft legislation, systems design and training rather than physical outputs, and timelines slip with the political calendar; check how the contract handles delays outside your control before pricing a fixed-fee assignment.

Before committing effort, it is worth running a deliberate bid/no-bid decision and checking your submission against the responsiveness checklist.
