| Summary: | This edition of Gridlines discusses how
unsolicited proposals may contribute to the overall
infrastructure goals of countries, particularly where
governments have limited technical and financial capacity to
develop projects. It also points out those unsolicited
proposals can pose challenges and risks, particularly when
projects are negotiated with the original proponent without
sufficient transparency or competition. Channeling all
unsolicited proposals into a transparent, competitive
process that gives other companies a fair chance of winning
the tender can reduce the risks while preserving the
potential for innovative solutions. |
