About UNIDO Procurement

UNIDO procures goods and services for:

1) implementation of its Technical Cooperation Programmes (TC Procurement), and

2) maintenance and functioning of the Vienna International Center including UNIDO Headquarters (Non-TC Procurement).

Procurement is administered by the Procurement Services Division, Operational Support Services, Policy and Programme Support (PPS/OSS/PRO), which is responsible for solicitation of offers, awarding and management of contracts and purchase orders in close cooperation with UNIDO substantive branches. In addition to the centralized procurement, UNIDO Representatives in the field are authorized to procure locally goods and services for the requirements of the field offices.
