Conclusions & Lessons learned
• Preparation phase might take longer (depends on the quality of input data, way it is organised etc…)
• Specialised knowledge connected to subject matter of procurement / PPA Include external civil servants (from the ministries) to
consolidate requirements and participate in preparation of tender documentation
Increase the involvement of external experts and consultants in order to compensate the lack of necessary knowledge;
Involve different relevant institutions (Audit office, regulatory agencies etc...) and academic institutions
