Procurement Framework

The World Bank's Procurement Framework, launched in July 2016, governs projects financed by Investment Project Financing (IPF). It aims to help Borrowers achieve value-for-money with integrity in delivering sustainable development. The Framework promotes flexibility in tailoring procurement approaches that reflect choice, quality, and value for money in public spending.

The Framework includes mandatory requirements set out in the Regulations, Policy, Directive, and Procedure, governing the procurement of Goods, Works, Non-Consulting Services, and Consulting Services for IPF operations. These documents provide rules and flexibility for Borrowers to design the right market approach, considering specific risks and opportunities.

Supporting the Framework are Standard Procurement Documents (SPDs), Procurement Guidance, tools, and templates. Various translations are provided, with the English version prevailing in case of discrepancies.

      Standard Forms of Agreement between World Bank Borrowers and UN Agencies

      You will find below the updated Standard Form of Agreement (SFA) master template to be used when a Borrower contracts a UN agency for Delivery of Outputs under Investment Project Financing. The SFA template has been updated to clarify that the Bank’s Environmental and Social Framework is the applicable environmental and social policy framework and further responds to feedback on financial reporting, data privacy and protection, and more. An SFA master template for Technical Assistance is being finalized and will be posted as soon as practicable along with an SFA master template for the Procurement of Supplies.

      5. Alternative Procurement Arrangements (APAs)

      The use of Alternative Procurement Arrangements (APAs) was approved by the Board of the World Bank in July 2015 as part of the New Procurement Framework.

       

      An assessment methodology has been developed and is being tested to assess the legal and regulatory framework, and the capacity and capability of a borrower implementing agency.  It uses as its base the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Developments (OECD) Methodology for Assessing Procurement Systems (MAPS).  The assessment methodology has been designed to include an additional Pillar, covering procurement operations and the use of minimum standards.  It also uses an evidence based approach, analyzing procurement data and, gathering the views of the Private Sector and Civil Society Organizations (CSO).

       

      See the Draft Guide to the Assessment: English, Chinese

       

      The principles governing APAs consider whether agency procurement arrangements, including procurement performance and governance, provide assurance that the Bank’s financing will be used for the intended purpose(s), and in accordance with the Bank’s Core Procurement Principles:

       

      ·       Value for money

      ·       Economy

      ·       Efficiency

      ·       Integrity

      ·       Fit for purpose

      ·       Transparency

      ·       Fairness
