Lesson
Procurement planning and readiness are critical prerequisites in the administration of bids and contract packages. Ensuring sufficient capacity of executing and implementing agencies facilitates a smooth procurement process. Developing back-up subprojects is also beneficial especially for implementation under the MFF in anticipation of cancellation of some subprojects. Given that civil works contractors in the rural areas have limited capabilities and as subprojects vary in size, this would proactively build an inventory of prequalified contractors.
