Country Guidance (Part I): Streamlining Sustainable Development into PPP Projects/Programs "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."

Albert Einstein

2

• Strategic opportunity to maximize the

contributions made by public infra and services delivered via PPP to the SDGs

• Guidance for PPP practitioners on 2 levels:

– PPP program (framework) – PPP project levels

3

Cautions

• 17 goals, and 169 targets …
• PPPs are complex in their own right …
• Be realistic, and opportunistic

4

SDGs and PPPs

• Direct – PPP project outputs

– Providing water – Providing energy – Providing quality education, etc…

• Indirect – PPP project design

– Gender equality – Inclusion – Income equality, etc…

• PPP Program/Framework – PPP policy, law,

institutions (PPPU, PDF, VGF,…)], procedures …

– Gender equality – ‘Rule of law’ – Inclusion, etc…

5

SDGs and PPP Programs i.

• Build awareness and understanding of SDGs

– Include SDGs in PPP communications – Specific training on how/which projects can contribute most to SDGs – Include SDGs in wider PPP capacity building programs and activities

• Design Program to stimulate PPP projects

with SDG relevance

– Incorporate SDGs into policy / law as explicit objectives – Put SDG in project eligibility / selection / prioritization criteria – Add SDGs into PDF, VGF or other support decisions – Make SDGs a consideration in procedural decision-making (“does the project contribute to SDGs?”)

6

SDGs and PPP Programs ii.

• Achieve SDGs in the setup and operation of

the PPP Program itself

– Gender and inclusiveness in composition of PPP institutions (e.g. PPPU, PDF, etc.) – Transparent and effective operation of PPP institutions / procedures

7

SDGs and PPP Projects

• 4 project stages

8

• 1. Identification
• Discrete exercise to identify PPP projects that

specifically address SDGs

• Emphasise / consider potential direct and indirect

contributions of all projects

• Use SDGs in project selection / prioritization

criteria to push SDG relevant projects ‘up the list’

Sectoral planning / Capital Budgeting / Project pipeline creation / Specific SDG planning / USPs => Infra / service projects to further assess for PPP delivery

9

• 2. Preparation
• Method 1: Incorporate SDGs in standard project

preparation activities

– Demand / market / developmental assessment – Technical, financial, commercial, legal assessment – Options analysis

• Method 2: In addition, conduct specific SDG assessment of

the project

– What are direct project outputs relevant for SDGs? Can more be added? Can outputs be increased? – What are indirect SDG contributions of the project? How can project design increase these?

• Method 3: Add SDGs in decision-making on the project FS

– E.g. alongside value-for-money, affordability, etc … – does the project achieve SDG objectives?

Pre-Feasibility Study / Feasibility Study & Business Case => Project PPP structuring and decision on transaction stage

10

• 3. Transaction
• 1. Tender Strategy

– Local benefits (SMEs) and inclusiveness – Gender – Transparency – Include SDGs in proposed bid evaluation methodology

• 2. Tender Documents

– SDG ‘policy’ or credentials of firms in pre-qualification requirements – Ask firms to address SDGs in their Tech Prop (added scoring points) – Include requirements to address SDGs in draft PPP Contract

• 3. Tendering

– Good governance – transparent, open tendering procedure – ‘Rule of law’ in practice – Gender, inclusiveness in makeup of procurement bodies (tendering committees)

Tender Strategy / Bid Docs / Tendering => Competitive selection of the private partner

Trigger the market

11

• 4. Management
• Specific SDG performance monitoring

– Regularly / periodically monitor whether / how PPP projects are contributing to SDGs

• Incorporate SDGs in monitoring bodies

– Inclusiveness in monitoring methods, technology and channels – Gender in composition of bodies, etc…

• Transparency

– Public disclosure of information on projects and performance

• Long term monitoring of lessons learnt

– Feed back into next generation of PPP projects – How to maximise project outputs for SDGs – How project design can contribute more to SDGs

Contract Management / Monitoring => Ensure PPP projects support SDGs in reality
