Summary: | This document provides information,
guidance and tools to support decision-making, planning and
implementation of mining local procurement in West Africa,
in particular at a country level. It can be used by
individual role players as well as form the basis of
consultative processes. The guide can also support regional
harmonization relating to mining local procurement. This
2015 version of the Practical Guide to Mining Local
Procurement in West Africa addresses questions that are
commonly asked by governments, companies, and citizens in
the region. How do we define and measure local procurement?
Do we create a specific policy or legislation to encourage
mining companies to buy more locally? If so, what do these
look like, and what has led to successful outcomes in other
countries? Do we pick winner productive sectors? How do we
best support suppliers to develop the right capacities and
standards to meet mine requirements? What institutional
framework and which actors need to be involved to deliver?
Rather than laying the main responsibility for increasing
domestic sourcing on the mining sector, this Guide aims at
promoting a multi-stakeholder approach, in which all actors
have clear roles and responsibilities. This guide has been
organised into eight modules that each address a set of
related questions that have been consistently raised by role players. |
