The Oyu Tolgoi supplier database is open to the public who wish to register themselves as Oyu Tolgoi suppliers. Oyu Tolgoi uses the database to compile bid lists of potential suppliers when we conduct tenders and to do supplier market research for our upcoming procuring needs. Registration is an easy process and it can be done by clicking on the link in this website and answering about twenty basic questions mostly concerning contact details and the products/services the suppliers offer.
The registered suppliers can access to the database anytime with their login details and update existing data whenever it is needed. Keeping the contact details recent and updating outdated information are mutually beneficial to Oyu Tolgoi and the suppliers.
There are five categories of suppliers registered on the database. These include two categories of businesses which are majority owned by Mongolians: national and South Gobi suppliers. The other categories are: Tier 1 international – suppliers with a Mongolian workforce greater than 75% and generating added value in Mongolia, Tier 2 international – suppliers that are registered and pay taxes in Mongolia, and Tier 3international – other international suppliers.
