However, he said, the PPP Authority is implementing mega projects that are strategically important for the development of the nation as a whole. Since its inception, the PPP Authority has been actively engaged in identifying, prioritizing, and selecting potential PPP projects. To realize these objectives, he said, the PPP Authority has become a cornerstone of Bangladesh's development strategy. Describing the regularity framework of PPP, Rahman said the PPP Act of 2015, along with various guidelines and rules, ensures a standardized and internationally recognized approach to public-private partnerships. "Some of these guidelines include the Procurement Guidelines for PPP Projects (2018), Guidelines for Unsolicited Proposals (2018), G2G Policy (2017), Rules for National Priority Projects (2018), and Rules for Viability Gap Funding (VGF) for PPP Projects (2018)," he added.
