The government of the republic of Belarus has authorized the Belarusian Universal Commodity Exchange to act as an operator of an electronic public procurement (E-procurement) platform.

Both Belarusian and foreign companies can use BUCE’s E-procurement platform to participate in procurement procedures for various goods, works, or services as either customers or suppliers.

BUCE’s E-procurement platform currently supports the following procurement procedures:

• electronic auctions
• open tenders
• requests for quotation
• single source purchases.

The E-procurement platform employs an electronic document management system. Therefore, one must have a valid electronic digital signature (EDS), in order to initiate a procurement procedure or vie for a government contract. To get your EDS simply follow this link.

Opportunities for non-Belarusian companies

Foreign residents (corporate entities and sole proprietors) are free to participate in procurement procedures held on BUCE's E-procurement platform. However, unlike Belarusian residents they can only register as suppliers.
