Summary of the workshop: Design, Build, Finance
The Regional Expert Forum turned out to be an excellent opportunity to discuss the possibilities of implementing projects by local government units in the Design, Build, and Finance formula. This formula allows most of the construction risks to be shifted to the contractor. The contracting authority makes payments only after the final acceptance of the works in convenient installments over a period of several or even several years. This formula also eliminates the need to include expenses in the individual debt ratio of a given entity. In the Design, Build and Finance formula, it is possible to implement a wide range of projects, ranging from term modernization of facilities, to the construction of passive facilities, through the renovation of lighting, roads, and finally the construction of parking lots and other public utility facilities. According to the statements of the representatives of municipalities, the demand for such investments is enormous. We encourage you to contact us to present the details of the assumptions for the implementation of projects in the Design, Build and Finance formula.
