For more information, please see www.dt-global.com
The Role
KIAT has in place a multi-year multi-project preparation facility to support high-quality project preparation for up to 6 PPP projects. The PPP projects could be from infrastructure sectors including toll road, bridges, airport, seaport, water, sanitation, renewable energy, energy savings, energy transition, and ICT sectors. The facility supports preparation of Greenfield projects, Brownfield expansion, asset monetisation, and investment platform projects. The facility supports development of a Full Business Case (FBC), readiness documents, transaction structuring and documentation, public consultations, market sounding, and capacity building. The project preparation supports mainstreaming climate change considerations through climate change and disaster risk assessment to inform adoption of appropriate risk management mechanisms, development of climate resilient project design to facilitate access to green and climate financing, and measurement of potential Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions to inform incorporating appropriate GHG emission reduction measures in project design and implementation. The project preparation also supports mainstreaming GEDSI considerations through inclusive public consultations as a part of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) to inform measures to be included in the Environmental and Social Management Plan to safeguard the interests of women, persons with disability and vulnerable groups through informed project design and implementation.
The project pipeline to be supported through KIAT’s Project Preparation Facility is developed based on a project screening process which assesses the PPP suitability, climate change and disaster risk (CCDR) exposure, and the GEDSI integration potential of projects. The screening process uses a project screening tool which assesses projects based on the infrastructure service need being met, the project options available to meet the service need, the selection of the most suitable project option, the alignment of the project with government’s national development and sector-specific priorities, pre-feasibility analysis, risk assessment, assessment of government’s institutional capacity and fiscal affordability to deliver the project, and the private investors’ and lenders investment considerations and terms of financing. The tool also assesses the exposure and sensitivity of projects to climate and geological hazards, transition risks, adaptation planning requirements, and potential to mainstream GEDSI considerations.
KIAT is strengthening the available resources to support effective management of the Project Preparation Facility sub-contractor, expedite the delivery of project preparation, and ensure high-quality project preparation through review and enhanced quality control by in-house subject matter experts. KIAT intends to mobilise a Lead Adviser (Infrastructure Funding and Financing) to fulfil these responsibilities. The adviser would support KIAT for (i) conceptualising and screening projects for the Project Preparation Facility i; (ii) providing review and quality enhancement inputs for projects being prepared through the Project Preparation Facility; (iii) financial due diligence, risk assessment, and project structuring analysis; (iv) designing specific financing instruments and facilities for catalysing investment in Indonesia’s infrastructure sector; (v) tracking investment opportunities and deals in the pipelines of GOI entities, other donors and MDBs, national investors, lenders, green and climate financiers to identify entry points and opportunities for collaboration(vi) providing discreet policy and sector research support for sectors and areas of emerging interest including renewable energy, energy transition and related infrastructure development, capital and financial markets.
