PPF5 ASSISTANCE TO THE SELECTION AND PRIORITISATION OF

INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTSSEPTEMBER 30 / BELGRADE


A project funded by the European Union



Size of the facility and dimension of the assistancePPF5 has a contract value of approximately 5,2M€for an overall duration of 24 months (November 2012-November 2014).

According to the 1st Interim Report’s planning, PPF5 resources(more than 8.200 w/d) will be tentatively allocated as follows:•RESULT 1 - PROGRAMMING 30%•RESULT 2 – CAPACITY BUILDING 13%•RESULT 3 – PROJECT PREPARATION 50%•MANAGEMENT AND COMMUNICATION 07%



Overall objective andexpected results of the assistanceTo support and reinforce capacities in drafting a strategic policy framework and in the preparation of mature investment projects for the planning, programming and implementation of IPA

•RESULT 1 FULLY DRAFTED PROGRAMMING DOCUMENTSFOR IPA 2014/20•RESULT 2 ADMINISTRATIONS DEALING WITH IPAARE AWARE OF ITS EVOLUTION AND CHANGES•RESULT 3 FINANCIALLY VIABLE PROJECTS DEVELOPEDAND READY FOR IMPLEMENTATION



Coordination with other on-going technical assistance projects• IPA MISP – Municipal Infrastructure Support Programmes (IPA 2008 and 2010)

Selection and prioritisation of infrastructure projectsWHERE WE ARE NOW

The methodology for selection and prioritisation of infrastructure projects will be implemented through a complete set of instruments elaborated by SEIO and examined by the EU Delegation in Serbia

These are the DRAFT instruments:• Overall methodological approach• Project Identification Forms (transport, water/waste water, waste, energy, b.r.i.)• Strategic Relevance Assessment Forms (transport, water/waste water, waste, energy, b.r.i.) • Gap Assessment Questionnaires (transport, water/waste water, waste, energy, b.r.i.)• Gap Assessment Reports (transport, water/waste water, waste, energy, b.r.i.)



Selection and prioritisation of infrastructure projects:

TESTING PHASE

is NOT a simulation of fictional projectsbut

is NOT the start of IPA programming either



Selection and prioritisation of infrastructure projectsTESTING PHASE

The methodology for selection and prioritisation of infrastructure project NEEDS to be properly tested for effective adoption

The testing phase will:• Check the overall concept of selection and prioritisation based on strategic relevance• Verify if and how the identification instruments (PIFs/SRAFs) are suitable for relevance assessment in the specific sectors• Provide a preliminary portfolio of strategically relevant projects to analyse their degree of maturity and viability (GAQs/GARs)



PPF5 technical assistanceTESTING PHASE

a) Support in project identification:assessment of Project Identification Forms received from various project proponents

b) Support in strategic relevance assessment:collaboration with SEIO in the elaboration of the Strategic Relevance Assessment Forms

c) Support in the gap assessment analyses:guidance in drafting Gap Assessment Questionnaires

d) Elaboration of Gap Assessment Reports
