How to find and win government tenders in Bangladesh.

Bangladesh's e-GP system covers procurement across government ministries, directorates, departments, and more than 1,000 procuring entities including municipalities, utility companies, and autonomous bodies. The platform handles goods, works, and consultancy services, with the Public Procurement Act 2006 and Public Procurement Rules 2008 providing the legal framework. Development-partner-funded projects — particularly those supported by the World Bank and Asian Development Bank — often use e-GP but may also follow donor procurement guidelines.

Domestic companies are the primary bidders in Bangladesh's government market. International companies can participate in tenders that permit international competitive tendering (ICT), which is typically used for large contracts above certain value thresholds or for specialized goods and services not available locally. Joint ventures between foreign and local Bangladeshi firms are common for infrastructure and technical projects under international competitive bidding.

With thousands of tenders published across e-GP annually, monitoring the market comprehensively requires ongoing attention.
