The Evaluation will be conducted at project, country and sector levels and will culminate into the presentation of overall findings, conclusions, lessons learnt and recommendations of Bank assistance and support to the PPP mechanism. It will be conducted in four (4) major phases: i) Documentation and Literature Review; ii) Field Data Collection and Analysis; iii) Evaluation Findings and Conclusions Sharing; and iv) the Reporting Phase.
The main outputs of the evaluation include the preparation of nine (9) country case studies, three (3) sector synthesis reports, the ISP and non-lending activities report, the Benchmarking report, and the CODE Synthesis Report. Technical annexes included in the Volume 2 of the Inception Report provide detailed methodological guides tools and templates as well as a list of bibliography.
The Communication strategy for this evaluation includes the organization of technical workshops to share findings with relevant stakeholders within and outside the Bank, and the use of a participatory approach in developing high quality recommendations by engaging experts as well as the potential end users of the evaluation results.
It is expected that a Consulting firm will conduct the evaluation within a duration of fifteen (15) months. A level of effort of 164 person-weeks (or 41 person-months) is estimated. This will include three (3) bilingual PPP sector experts specialized in the power, transport, and renewable energy sectors, and a team leader with high level experience in monitoring and evaluation of PPP interventions. The evaluation may also need more expertise from the legal, legislative, judiciary and procurement to complement the institutional and legislative country environments.
