咨詢服務（Procurement of Service）
咨詢服務主要指可行性研究、監理、工程設計、建筑施工、財務及管理等方面的服務。由于多數國際金融機構的借款者都是發展中國家，缺乏技術、經營管理方面的經驗，所以，需要聘請國際咨詢公司提供咨詢服務。因此借款者經常采用有限國際投標方式選擇咨詢公司，以便對項目實施進行監督管理。世界銀行、亞洲開發銀行等國際金融機構有時也直接聘用咨詢者，用于提供其資助的技術援助項目的咨詢服務。注意，借款者所擬定的任務大綱，咨詢公司的短名單及邀請書的內容、形式等都必須征得貸款方、國際金融機構的同意。
有限國際投標方式選擇咨詢公司的主要步驟如下：
* 擬定任務大綱
Making of Project Work Program
* 作出成本估算
Estimate of Cost
* 從長名單后選公司中選出5至7名合格的后選咨詢公司短名單
Selecting 5 to 7 short-listed suitable Candidates from among the“long list” of Suitable Candidates．
* 向短名單上的后選公司發出邀請，并要求其對“任務大綱”遞交建議書
Sending Invitation to the short-listed Candidates and asking them to submit proposal．
* 選出一家合格公司進行合同談判
Selecting one qualified Candidate for negotiation of Contract
* 簽署合同
Signing of Contract
