Subcontracting Opportunities


The main purpose of CIDA's Contracts and Agreements remains to help individuals, small-to medium-sized enterprises (SME), and other organizations to identify potential opportunities for subcontracting to organizations responsible for implementing programs and projects funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). The publication also informs the Canadian public about current major CIDA projects, recipient countries, and organizations involved in international development.

Content: Active service contracts, grants and contributions agreements over $100,000 in value within the geographic programs (country-to-country), and for which disbursements do not exceed 75% of the initial value. These contractual may represent posting opportunities in recipient countries, or business opportunities in Canada.

Presentation: Information has been organized in PDF format files, each of which corresponds to the following five geographic programs: North Africa and Middle East; Sub-Saharan Africa; Americas; Asia; and Europe.

We have provided information on the organizations implementing these projects such as the contact information and their particulars, as well as the contract/agreement value.
