Zambia Tenders

The Zambia Public Procurement Authority (ZPPA) is the official source of information on government procurement in Zambia. The ZPPA website provides information on procurement procedures, tender opportunities, and contract awards. The e-Government Procurement (e-GP) system is the official platform for the submission and evaluation of tenders.
GlobalTenders aggregates tenders from Zambia's official, authorities and agencies websites, newspapers, journals and magazines. With artificial intelligence and machine learning the data is authenticated, segregated and reorganized to make thousands of Zambia Tenders easily searchable on a single platform.

All companies and individuals who are capable of fulfilling the requirements can potentially bid on Zambia tenders. There might be additional restrictions based on domicile, experience and qualifications depending on the project's nature and complexity.

The seven top products and services procured by the Zambia government through tenders are:

The exact eligibility criteria vary with each Zambia tender, but some common requirements include:
