The IDC is the state's industrial development finance institution: it lends to and invests in industry rather than building things itself. Its own buying therefore looks corporate rather than infrastructural — professional, advisory and financial services, due-diligence and technical assessments, ICT systems, and the facilities and services its offices need. It is a good fit for consultancies, specialist advisors and professional-services firms, and a poor one for general suppliers and contractors.
