Why the diaspora misses public tenders
Distance creates a structural disadvantage. Here are the 3 obstacles SangoBids removes.
Tenders expire while you sleep
A tender published in Ouagadougou in the morning often has a short window. From Europe, you find out too late.
Your local competitors have a head start
Firms on the ground check ARCOP regularly. Without automated monitoring, you miss opportunities.
Local contacts aren't enough
Relying on a local contact to watch tenders? Risk of missed notices and incomplete information.

Frequently asked questions — Diaspora
Can I bid on a public tender from France?
Yes. Most public tenders in Burkina Faso are open to foreign companies or diaspora entrepreneurs with a locally registered business. Some contracts require a local partner — SangoBids helps you identify those requirements.
How is SangoBids different from checking the official portal myself?
SangoBids aggregates DGCMEF automatically and sends you SMS, WhatsApp and email alerts the moment a tender matching your criteria is published. No more checking manually — especially across time zones.
Do SMS alerts work with a French number?
Yes — SMS alerts work with French (+33), Belgian (+32), Swiss (+41), Canadian (+1) and all international numbers. WhatsApp and email work everywhere.
How much does it cost?
Signing up is free and includes a weekly email digest. Paid plans (from 5,000 FCFA/month) add daily SMS alerts, AI document analysis, and bid tracking.
Do I need a company back home to bid?
It depends on the contract. Many international tenders in Burkina Faso accept foreign companies. For national contracts, you often need a local entity or a local partner. SangoBids flags the contract type (national/international) in every alert.
