Challenge: Creating a High-Speed Network for Remote Areas and Reducing the Digital Divide
The regional authorities of a client country launched a project to create high-speed infrastructure to serve highly remote communities and thus reduce the digital divide. They sought assistance in carrying out a public market consultation through a competitive dialogue for the design and implementation phase of the project.
Methodology: Needs assessment, technical specifications, and bid analysis
Chosen to lead this consultation process, Sofrecom implemented a two-phase methodology: first, conducting needs assessments and drafting technical specifications; second, analyzing bidders’ responses and providing recommendations for selection.
Result: Technical consistency and on-time delivery for a project in a remote environment
A key element of the consultation was ensuring the technical consistency of the project, particularly in highly remote areas within tropical rainforest environments. The rigorous and impartial analysis of bidders’ proposals, combined with the establishment of conditions to ensure adherence to the implementation schedule, were decisive factors in the success of this consultation.
