1. Environmental Commitment
At TenderSoko, we are redefining procurement through digital sustainability. By shifting tender publication, submission, and review processes online, we significantly reduce paper use, printing, and travel emissions. Our partnerships promote eco-conscious practices, encouraging suppliers and institutions to embrace energy-efficient technologies and green innovations.
- Adoption of paperless workflows and e-tender systems.
- Support for suppliers offering green and renewable technologies.
- Alignment with Kenya’s Vision 2030 sustainability and green growth goals.
- Commitment to a low-impact, environmentally aware workplace culture.
2. Social Empowerment
Procurement should uplift communities, not exclude them. TenderSoko promotes equitable access through inclusive design, mentorship, and education. Our initiatives support women, youth, and persons with disabilities (PWDs), ensuring everyone has an equal opportunity to thrive.
- Youth & Women in Procurement: Mentorship, networking, and visibility.
- PWD Inclusion: Accessibility-first design and advocacy for inclusive tender policies.
- Capacity Building: Workshops, digital literacy, and procurement training for SMEs.
- Local Empowerment: Helping African SMEs compete regionally and globally.

- All tenders undergo verification for authenticity.
- Zero tolerance for data manipulation or favoritism.
- Compliance with the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act (PPADA).
