How they buy

Across the social development & inclusion notices we currently hold for Colombia, the most common form is the open tender or invitation to bid, followed by request for quotation and auction. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.

What qualifies you

Social development assignments are commissioned across the UN system, development banks and international NGOs, and are as much about how work is done as what is delivered. Proposals are assessed on safeguarding and do-no-harm arrangements, on whether affected groups genuinely participate in design, and on the bidder's own record — organisations are increasingly asked to evidence their internal policies on protection from sexual exploitation and abuse before award. Work on gender-based violence, child protection or trafficking carries confidentiality and referral obligations that must be reflected in the methodology and staffing. Where the contract touches social protection systems, expect to work with government registries and payment infrastructure, which brings data-protection duties alongside the programme design itself.

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