How to find and win government tenders in Mali.

Mali's public procurement is managed and published through DGMP Mali (Direction Générale des Marchés Publics) at dgmp.ml. This guide covers how the system is structured, who qualifies to bid, and how to track new contract opportunities.

Four steps to your first Mali government contract.

1

Establish your supplier credentials

Register your business with Mali's commercial registry and obtain a tax identification number. Foreign companies should verify whether a locally registered entity is required for their target procurement categories.

2

Access tender notices on DGMP Mali

Tender notices (avis d'appel d'offres) are published on dgmp.ml by ministries and public institutions. Review the dossier d'appel d'offres for each opportunity to confirm technical scope and eligibility.

3

Prepare and submit a compliant bid

Assemble the full administrative dossier—legal registration, tax clearance, technical capacity evidence—alongside your technical and financial proposals. Follow the DAO exactly; missing documents result in disqualification.

4

Track awards and build relationships

DGMP publishes contract award information. Reviewing awards helps identify active buyers, successful competitors, and realistic pricing benchmarks for future bids.
