Search Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) contract award data — which firms and individual consultants were awarded contracts under IDB-financed projects, with contract amount, sector, borrower country, and dates. ~159,000 awards. Filter by country, awarded firm name, sector, and contract year. Note: many individual-consultant contracts record the firm as “Not Available” by design (the consultant is not a named firm). Keyless, queried live against the same data as IDB’s 70MB awards CSV — no download needed.
