Thematic focus
The need to use PPP for urban development to meet the massive requirements of funds, management skills and equity is duly recognized by government of India, states and Urban Local Bodies in their policies and programmes. Smart City Mission for example has an ambitious plan to implement projects with seven time higher investment than the budgetary allocation. Accordingly PPP is an integral part of urban sector projects. Cities across the country are witnessing a typology of PPP projects. These are also undergoing a negotiating process and other initiatives to identify, select and create partners in a systematic manner.
Mega and Metro cities have taken a lead to accelerate investment in the urban development in line with a tripartite consensus between Government of India, states and ULBs. Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Pune and Indore etc. are paving way for wider replication and adaptation of PPP projects. A range of strategies, documents, Model bidding documents, evaluation frame-work, Model contracts, procurement process, risk assessment and layering, development of MOUs, Monitoring and evaluation mechanisms are emerging for different types of projects. These are particularly important in the rapid pace of urbanization, need for balanced growth with correction in concentration of urban population and recovery of economy during COVID-19 pandemic.
In view of vast requirements of funds in the sector, the negotiating skills are critical to a cross section of public sector functionaries. It in this context that IIPA proposes to design, develop and deliver a five day course for officers from All India Services and Central Services.
