The objective of infoDev's work on PPPs and e-government is to develop an online Introduction to E-Government, and training materials related to the field of PPPs in e-government.
A brief description of the assignment is provided below:
- Knowledge Map on PPPs in e-Government: Outlining what is known about PPPs in e-Government, including a critical review of the secondary literature and related case studies, extracting and briefly summarizing key lessons learned and best practices, including an attention to the policy, legal, and procurement issues raised by PPPs.
- Introduction to E-Government knowledge product: Drawing on the existing literature, and based on the "PPPs in e-Government" knowledge mapping exercise, and tools developed in this area, this piece is structured along the issues related to how PPP schemes in e-government projects can and should be managed. It will comprise a practical set of tools outlining the structure of how to manage the process of planning for, and implementing PPPs, heavily illustrated and supported through a series of relevant annotated case studies mapped to various stages in the process.
- Training Materials on PPP schemes: Extract from and/or summarize case studies, and synthesize the lessons learned from the various PPP schemes across the different sectors and applications, and their impact in developing countries into a comprehensive set of training material that will complement the toolkit.
