Market Sounding Activity for NIA PPP Projects

Overview

The National Irrigation Administration (NIA), with support from the PPP Center, is developing the Upper Banaoang Irrigation Project, Ilocos-Norte-Ilocos Sur-Abra Irrigation Project (INISAIP), and Tumauini River Multipurpose Project (TRMP) which were identified as priority Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects to contribute to the expansion and upgrading of infrastructure and modernization of agriculture and agribusiness.

As part of the initial stages of project development, the PPP Center and NIA are conducting this preliminary market-sounding activity to solicit insights and feedback on the project terms from interested private sector investors. This activity will run from September 18-29, 2023, and is facilitated through an online form. Registration is open until September 15, 2023.

The objectives of the market-sounding activity are as follows:

  • To discuss the scope and details of the proposed PPP project;
  • To ascertain the level of interest of the private sector to undertake the same;
  • To gather initial feedback from potential project sponsors, contractors/operators and financiers; and
  • To identify potential issues or problems that may affect the viability of these projects.
