The United Nation Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) has produced the useful UNCITRAL Legislative Guide 2019. Chapter III, section E of the guide provides guidance on both policies and procedures for dealing with unsolicited proposals and distinguishes between proposals that do or do not require proprietary concepts or technology. 

Standardized Agreements, Bidding Documents and Guidance Manuals

There has been a long tradition of the use of standardized agreements for the procurement of goods and services for traditional public works projects and many international financial institutions including the World Bank require the use of standard bidding documents for the projects that they fund. The use of standardized contracts for complex public-private partnership (PPP) transactions is less common and to date international financial institutions have not produced standardized agreements for PPP transactions.
