Each UN agency has its own mandate and procurement requirements. There are a number of resources available to assist in identifying which agencies are procuring which types of goods and services:

The General Business Guide will help the supplier learn which UN organizations purchase the goods or services your company supplies. The Guide describes the mandates, procurement needs, procedures and contact details for all UN organizations. Suppliers can also use this publication to familiarize themselves with UN General Terms and Conditions for the Procurement of Goods and Services.

A publication has been developed: Practical Tips for Doing Business with the UN which is a booklet outlining the procurement practices of the UN and how to go about becoming a supplier.
