Missions are an integral part to working with the World Bank and understanding how it functions. They give companies the opportunity to meet decision makers, ask questions and attend seminars such as a “procurement” seminar which could provide you with the information to help to win future World Bank Projects.

eConsultant2 & future improvements
In one of the first blog posts we highlighted 
the difference between Operational Procurement and Corporate Procurement. You can review this post at http://wp.me/p4X6vO-72. In essence, corporate procurement is when the World Bank procures goods, works or (consultancy) services itself, whereas in operational procurement, this is done by the borrowing country.
Roughly every quarter we have a meeting with the Corporate Procurement team to discuss any issues, problems, complaints and – every once in a while – compliments that you have raised with us. In this post, we’d like to update you on some of the changes in the corporate procurement process and the eConsultant2 system it uses. In the spotlight this time: forthcoming improvements.
