Introduction

As the Luxembourg Development Cooperation Agency, LuxDev operates in the framework of bilateral development cooperation project or programme agreements signed between the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and its partner countries.

Implementing these projects and programmes involves the procurement of goods, services, and works. These are financed through contributions from the Luxembourg government or other donors, with LuxDev acting as the awarding authority.

When it comes to procurement, LuxDev fully adheres to – and ensures compliance with – the principles of fair competition and equal treatment of all economic operators. We carry out our procurement activities transparently, proportionately, and without discrimination. Our responsibility is to manage the funds entrusted to us by the State and other donors with care and diligence. This means applying proper risk management and ensuring sound financial stewardship of public resources.

General Regulations and general conditions for contracts

All procurement rules and conditions are laid out in our General Procurement Regulations, which govern the acquisition of goods, services, and works funded by Luxembourg or other donors under LuxDev’s authority.

The general conditions of contracts for goods, services, and works are also an integral part of each contract.

Beyond compliance, LuxDev actively promotes values such as ethics, environmental responsibility, and respect for human rights, and encourages all service providers to do the same.

Notices published

The information on contracts published on the LuxDev website relates to the following notices.

  • 1. Prior information notices

    These are optional and provide a brief preview of upcoming procurement opportunities. Since they are for information only, they are not binding on LuxDev.

  • 2. Contract notices

    These are required for contracts above EUR 100,000 and optional below that threshold. They include all essential details: the scope of the contract, how to request the tender documents (for goods and works) or the expression of interest documents (for services), and the deadline for submissions.
    Shortlists following a call for expressions of interest (for services) are also published under this category.

  • 3. Award notices

    These show which contracts have been awarded or cancelled. When a contract is awarded, the notice includes the name of the selected contractor and the contract amount.

LuxDev may also share procurement notices on behalf of external partners involved in projects. In such cases, our role is simply to spread the word and help ensure fair competition – LuxDev is not the issuing authority for those procedures.
