Scope of Work & Procurement Overview
Danish Refugee Council Somalia Emergency Shelter Tender 2026: CGI Sheets, Timber & NFI Procurement
INTRODUCTION
The Danish Refugee Council (DRC), one of the world's leading international humanitarian non-governmental organizations operating across more than 40 displacement-affected countries globally, officially re-advertised an open competitive Invitation to Bid (ITB) on 07 September 2026 for a high-volume annual Framework Agreement covering the 'Supply, Delivery, and Offloading of Emergency Shelter Kits, Corrugated Galvanized Iron (CGI) Roofing Sheets, Treated Construction Timber, Hardware Accessories, and Standard Non-Food Item (NFI) Kits' across Somalia.
Protracted conflict, severe climate shocks (recurrent droughts followed by catastrophic flash floods), and ongoing forced evictions continue to displace hundreds of thousands of vulnerable pastoralist families into informal IDP settlements across Mogadishu, Baidoa, Kismayo, and Galkayo. To provide rapid emergency shelter assistance, improve household thermal protection, and distribute basic domestic survival items (plastic tarpaulins, blankets, kitchen sets, solar lanterns), the Danish Refugee Council is contracting pre-qualified suppliers under a multi-lot framework agreement.
With bid submissions closing on Sunday, 20 September 2026 at 17:00 East Africa Time (EAT) via email to som-procurement@drc.ngo, regional building hardware suppliers, timber merchants, and humanitarian commodity distributors have an urgent deadline to respond. This procurement offers guaranteed order volumes, prompt hard-currency payment settlements, and multi-year supply stability with a premier European NGO. This comprehensive TenderMan procurement report delivers an authoritative breakdown of material specifications, packaging mandates, logistics corridors, and winning submission tactics.
