Salardi explained the guidelines of his administration and strategic actions to be implemented with the main focus being the recovery and strengthening of stakeholder confidence in the PPP system.
"2023 will be the year of the relaunch of PPP projects in Peru. To achieve this, we are speeding up and streamlining procedures, standardizing contracts, and undertaking all articulated effort with ministries, authorities, and the private sector," the official emphasized.
He also stressed that improvements are being identified, which will contribute to greater reactivation of PPP processes in Peru.
"The relaunch of PPP projects has already begun, maintaining the guiding principles of transparency, promotion of competition, and a great sense of urgency," he emphasized.
It is important to specify that the total amount of 2022 awarding was matched in January 2023 because the entity awarded the Enlace Ica-Poroma and ITC Cáclic-Jaén Projects with an investment worth over US$73 million.
