Summary and Detailed Borrower Procurement Reports

Last Update: June 19, 2008

The set of procurement contract awards on this site include summary and detailed reports for commitments against prior-review Bank-funded contracts awarded under IDA/IBRD investment projects and related Trust Funds ^(*).

Summary reports are broken down by OECD and non-OECD countries; detailed reports are country-specific and cover 81 countries that currently have Private Sector Liaison Officers (PSLO) network representatives.

Report Attributes

(1) A project's thresholds for prior review vary from loan to loan and from country to country; they are specified in the procurement schedule of the project's Loan Agreement. Contracts below the prior review threshold, and other fast-disbursing contracts subject to the Bank's ex-post review, are not entered in the Bank's procurement systems.

(2) The nationality of awarded firms is based on place of registration, which may or may not be the same as the country of origin.

(3) Contract totals may vary in past and present fiscal or calendar years, as contracts may be cancelled or amended throughout a project's lifetime.

(4) All contract values reflect committed (not dibursed) amounts, and are in US dollars, based on the US Treasury's rate of exchange at the time of the Bank's no objection to the contract award.

(5) Contracts may include prior reviewed awards under the following agreement types: IDA, IBRD, Carbon Offset, Debt Reduction Facility, Global Environment Projects, GEF Medium Sized Programs, Guarantees, Institutional Development Fund, Montreal Protocol, JSA/PRSP and JSA/I-PRSP, Recipient-Executed Activities, Rainforest, Special Financing, IFAD-Funded projects, and UNDP-funded projects.

Detailed Reports 
(For 81 Countries with PSLO network representation)

The 81 country-specific reports summarize contract award commitments under Bank-financed IDA/IBRD investment projects for Fiscal Years 2003-2007.

Contract totals are broken down by operational region, client country, major sector, procurement category (works, goods, consultancy services, and services), type of contract, procurement method, project ID and name, loan/credit number, agreement type (IBRD, IDA, GEF, etc.), contract description, supplier name, and amount in US dollars and/or US dollar equivalent.

Contract Awards (Red Book)

These Contract Award tables are a complilation of contracts that were reviewed and agreed to by Bank staff before they were awarded; i.e., prior review contracts. Generally, all major contracts financed under investment lending are subject to this prior review.

Miscellaneous/Other Reports

The reports in this section are similar to our Contract Awards (Red Book) reports but follow a different structure/data order and cover contract commitments from fiscal year 1993 to 2007, batched into sets of two or more fiscal years.

Also similar to the above reports, the following reports break down the contract awards by procurement category (goods, works, consultants) for fiscal years 2002-2007.
