PROCUREMENT PLAN (Textual Part)
Project information: Sint Maarten. Improving Mental Health Services
in Sint Marten. P177679.
Project Implementation agency: National Recovery Program Bureau
(NRPB).
Date of the Procurement Plan: February 17, 2023
Period covered by this Procurement Plan: February 2023-July 2024
Preamble
In accordance with paragraph 5.9 of the “World Bank Procurement Regulations
for IPF Borrowers” (July 2016) (“Procurement Regulations”) the Bank’s
Systematic Tracking and Exchanges in Procurement (STEP) system will be
used to prepare, clear and update Procurement Plans and conduct all
procurement transactions for the Project.
This textual part along with the Procurement Plan tables in STEP constitute the
Procurement Plan for the Project. The following conditions apply to all
procurement activities in the Procurement Plan. The other elements of the
Procurement Plan as required under paragraph 4.4 of the Procurement
Regulations are set forth in STEP.
The Bank’s Standard Procurement Documents: shall be used for all
contracts subject to international competitive procurement and those
contracts as specified in the Procurement Plan tables in STEP.
National Procurement Arrangements: In accordance with paragraph 5.3
of the Procurement Regulations, when approaching the national market (as
specified in the Procurement Plan tables in STEP), the country’s own
procurement procedures may be used. In the case of Sint Maarten there are
directives on procurement for high valued contracts but there is no
procurement law in the country. The World Bank is currently involved in
supporting the development of Sint Maarten’s public procurement legislation.
When other national procurement arrangements other than national open
competitive procurement arrangements are applied by the Borrower, such
arrangements shall be subject to paragraph 5.5 of the Procurement
Regulations.
Leased Assets as specified under paragraph 5.10 of the Procurement
Regulations: Leasing may be used for those contracts identified in the
Procurement Plan tables. Not applicable.
Procurement of Second Hand Goods as specified under paragraph 5.11 of
the Procurement Regulations – is allowed for those contracts identified in the
Procurement Plan tables Not applicable.
Domestic preference as specified under paragraph 5.51 of the Procurement
Regulations (Goods and Works). Not applicable.
Hands-on Expanded Implementation Support (HEIS). Several HEIS
consultants from the World Bank are strengthening the NRPB’s capacity in the
execution of other project in the country, mainly in relation to procurement. It
is expected that this support will continue during the execution of this Project.
Other Relevant Procurement Information.
For the strategic consulting service contracts under Component 1 related to
activities such as strengthening treatment and referral protocols, assessing
gaps in policy and legislation, and carrying out a cost benefit analysis within
the mental health care chain, the market analysis and the procurement
objectives justify the direct selection of a renowned international mental
health institute.
