FAQ

Water tenders, answered

Where can I find water & sanitation tenders?

Water & Sanitation tenders are published across national procurement portals and, in the EU, on TED. qlows aggregates live water notices from 35 WTO-GPA markets and matches them to your catalog, so you see the relevant ones in one place instead of watching each portal.

Can foreign companies bid on water tenders?

Yes. Under the WTO Government Procurement Agreement, a supplier in one member market can bid on water & sanitation tenders in the others on equal terms above each market's value threshold — no local-presence requirement.

How many water tenders are live right now?

qlows tracks live water tenders across the WTO-GPA markets; the count changes daily as new notices are published and deadlines pass.
