Integrated Development of Basic Urban Services in Provincial Towns Project

Certain lessons have already been incorporated in The Southeast Gobi project, which was approved in April 2010. In contrast with L1907, aimags have primary responsibility for the design and construction of infrastructure, including procurement and oversight of construction supervision. Design and build contracts aim to avoid technical problems at the design stage and shorten the period required for completion of works. The Southeast Gobi project also supports a reform process in which tariffs are set through a tender process in which firms compete for the right to manage service provision.
