Project Procurement Guidelines
A. Background
1. Article 7, section 2(j) of the Agreement Establishing IFAD provides that the
Executive Board will adopt suitable regulations for procuring goods and services to
be financed from the resources of the Fund. These revised Procurement Guidelines
will apply to all projects and programmes financed from IFAD’s resources, and to
financing provided from supplementary funds unless otherwise agreed. They
replace the Procurement Guidelines adopted by the Executive Board in December 2004.
Procurement Guidelines

We are finally starting to think about how touchscreen devices really work, and design proper sized targets, think about touch as different from mouse selection, and to create common gesture libraries.
But despite this we still forget the user. Fingers and thumbs take up space, and cover the screen. Corners of screens have different accuracy than the center. It's time to re-evaluate what we think we know.
Steven reviews his ongoing research into how people actually interact with mobile devices, presents some new ideas on how we can design to avoid errors and take advantage of this new knowledge, and leaves you with 10 (relatively) simple steps to improve your touchscreen designs tomorrow.

Chapter 13 Behavioral Objectives:
Explain how to use the contemporary approach to project partnering and collaboration.
Super Absorbent Polymer Turf (SAPTURF)
“The SAPTURF project required a strong team. Successful commercialization of IP is a long shot, so room for project management error is slim. I realized I would need to compensate for lack of in-house resources. Lack of in-house resources is an advantage! I was free to look for the best resources…”

Tender and Bidding in Construction ProjectsIJERA Editor
Construction Industry plays a key role in the process of economic transformation and growth. Export of projects and services indicate a country's progress in technology and export performance. Most of the companies are versed only with engineering and technology. The decision to bid is a major financial decision because of two reasons. First, the contractor assumes substantial costs for the preparations of the estimates and the tender at the risk of not recovering them if he is not awarded the job. Second, andmost importantly, thecontractor commits himself to investment in the construction of the project if he wins the bid.
11. A concrete dam can be assumed to be trapezoidal in section having a top width of 2 m and bottom width of 10 m. Its height is 12 m and the upstream face has a batter of 1: 10. Give an analysis of the stability of the dam for the base section for overturning and sliding in the full reservoir condition assuming no free-board allowance but allowing for uplift pressures. Assume uplift intensity factor ast 100%. Also determine the compressive stresses at the toe and the heel, and major principal and shear stress developed at the toe. Assume weight of concrete to be 24 kN/m³, unit shear strength of concrete
to be 1400 KN/m³, and the coefficient of friction between concrete and foundation soil to be 0.7.
12. The following data refer to the non-overflow section of a gravity dam:
R.L. of top of the dam
315 m.
R.L. of bottom of the dam
260 m
Full reservoir level
= 312 m
Top width of the dam
= 12 m.
Unstream face is vertical. Downstream face is vertical upto R.L. 304 m; and thereafter, the

70. Selection of Particular Types of Consultants Selection of UN agencies as consultants Advantages neutralized for evaluation/ comparison (borrower may accept granting immunities/privileges, tax exemption, special payment terms provided these are neutralized in competitive selection) Use of Civil society organizations (CSOs) Non-profit organizations. For community participation projects, with special local knowledge requirements, short-list may be all CSOs Procurement agents (PAS) To be selected using QCBS procedures with cost being given a weight up to 50%. Usually paid a % of value of procurement handled, or combination of % and fixed fee. When PAS provides advisory services/ acts as “agents” for a whole project, payment made on a time basis Inspection agents To be selected using QCBS procedures with cost being given a weight up to 50% & using a contract format with payments based on a percentage of the value of goods inspected and certified Auditors To be selected according QCBS with cost as a substantial selection factor (40 - 50 points), or by “least-cost selection”; LCS may be used for very small assignment Service delivery contractors Frame work contracts. (For hiring large numbers of social workers with defined qualifications & employment terms)
83. Quantity and Value of Procurement Once the goods, works & related services to be procured are identified, estimation of quantity of goods & amount of works & services is critical for procurement planning & preparation When quantities to be procured are undetermined until project implementation (demand-driven), it may be permissible to allocate funds out of the loan as “undetermined procurement”
