Consultancy Assignments for our projects abroad

We are looking for external consultants to support us in our work abroad. CBI seeks individuals in specialised areas and for specific projects. Our consultancy assignments are non-staff functions. On this page, you will find a list of current consultancy assignments and tenders. The duration of these projects varies from a few months to a few years.

Assignments

In line with the relevant procurement procedures, CBI can directly invite one or more experts to submit a quotation or engage in a bidding competition for assignments. Longer-term assignments and assignments above a certain threshold are listed as European tenders.

CBI publishes all tenders on its digital platforms. Our European tenders are open for European and non-European consultants. You can find current tenders for consultancy services on this page or via:

The e-procurement tender platform (search Aankondigingen for CBI);
TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the online version of the ‘Supplement to the Official Journal of the EU’.

We have different types of agreements with our experts:

Regular agreement: for an assignment that is clearly defined, has clear deliverables and an end date. If we accept your offer for a specific activity, we will give you a contract for it.
Framework agreement: for a longer-term assignment, usually 3-4 years. We will give you specific assignments related to the work described in the tender document up to the monetary amount and/or date mentioned in the agreement.
