Business Opportunities
Consulting Services The PPTA was implemented over 6 months, from April 2016 to September 2016. The consulting contract with ISC was awarded in June 2016. A team of 9 international consultants and 8 domestic consultants provided a total of 25 person-months of consulting services. Consulting firm was recruited, using the quality- and cost-based selection method with a standard quality-cost ratio of 90:10 because of the highly specialized expertise needed. ADB engaged the consulting firm in accordance with the Guidelines on the Use of Consultants (2015, as amended from time to time). The selection of the consulting firm was based on the submission of a simplified technical proposal and effected by the quality- and cost-based selection process.
