Who buys construction & infrastructure in Kenya

These are the organisations with the most construction & infrastructure notices open in Kenya 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.

How they buy

Kenyan public procurement is conducted by individual procuring entities — ministries, counties, parastatals and universities — under the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act, with notices published on entity websites, in the press and on the government tenders portal. County-level procurement is a significant and growing share.

Across the construction & infrastructure notices we currently hold for Kenya, the most common form is the open tender or invitation to bid, followed by request for proposal. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.

What qualifies you

Bidders need business registration, a valid tax compliance certificate, and typically registration with the procuring entity. Reservation schemes set aside a share of procurement for youth, women and persons with disabilities through the Access to Government Procurement Opportunities programme, which requires separate registration to claim.

Construction and infrastructure is one of the largest tender categories worldwide, spanning roadworks, buildings, bridges, pipelines, electrification and turnkey EPC projects. Notices here usually specify eligibility criteria such as prior similar work, annual turnover and technical staff, along with earnest-money and performance-guarantee requirements. Read the bill of quantities and completion timeline carefully, and check whether the tender is item-rate, percentage-rate or lump-sum before pricing your bid.

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