tender Background

About the Funding Agency

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), as it is known in English, operates in about 170 countries and territories with the goal of achieving the eradication of poverty and the reduction of inequalities and exclusion. The UNDP also helps countries to develop policies, leadership skills, partnering abilities, institutional capabilities and build resilience in order to sustain development results.

UNDP focuses on helping countries build and share solutions in three main areas: sustainable development, democratic governance and peacebuilding, and climate and natural disaster resilience. 

The annual Human Development Report, commissioned by the  UNDP, focuses the global debate on key development issues, providing new measurement tools, innovative analysis and often controversial policy proposals. The global Report's analytical framework and inclusive approach carry over into regional, national and local Human Development Reports, also supported by the UNDP.

Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is implementing large-scale infrastructure projects in transport, renewable energy, tourism, and smart cities under Vision 2030. Mega-projects such as NEOM aim to transform economic diversification and reduce dependence on oil revenues. Financing comes from public investment funds, oil revenues, and increasing private sector participation. Fiscal reform, workforce development, and project execution efficiency are central to long-term infrastructure success.
