Selection of a health expert for the preparation of a PPP feasibility study for an oncology center – Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Expertise France in cooperation with the Ministry of Health 

Mission description

This assignment aims at preparing a PPP feasibility study of a new oncology center in Addis Ababa for the Ministry of Health (MoH). The study will inform the PPP Board on the project’s technical, financial, economic, legal, and institutional viability. The feasibility study’s table of content is presented below in the section Deliverables.

 Work approach and available information

The MoH avails a technical team that will support the short-term experts during the entire assignment’s duration. These technical teams are tasked to support the experts and gather additional information as required. The resident Expertise France advisor acts as the team leader and is responsible for managing the consistency and quality of the experts deliverables. A pre-feasibility study was prepared in 2019 by PWC and will be shared with the selected experts. This prefeasibility study sheds light on the services to be provided, projected demand for oncology services, notional capital – and operating expenditures as well as an analysis of the payment options.

Safety conditions allowing, a combined field visit in Addis Ababa for all the experts of a maximum of 10 working days is required and its timing will be coordinated with the stakeholders involved.  Separately, Expertise France will cover all expenses related to the field visit (per diem and flight tickets). The 10 days field visit can be split into several missions and this will be coordinated with Expertise France.  

The oncology PPP project will be the first of its kind in the country and the MoH has no experience in managing a PPP contract of this magnitude and scope. These constraints indicate that the project structuring should be kept as simple as possible. 

Contract duration: 6 months starting end of March 2022

Number of days of expertise required: 20 days

The maximal amount of the contract: 18 000 EUR

Location: from remote and 10 days maximum in Addis-Ababa
