Global Practices and Cross-Cutting Solutions Areas:
A New Operating Model Since July 1, 2014
The World Bank Group (WBG) : public and private sector windows
with opportunities for exporters and investors
Total WBG Commitment of $61 B in FY 2014
WBG Disaster and Crisis Risk Management Policy
• The WBG has a long-term agenda for promoting disaster and crisis risk management as
elements of sustainable development and growth.
• WBG’s objective is to build resilience in national political, administrative, economic and
social systems to ensure that countries and communities are able to prevent what can be
prevented, are prepared to manage unpreventable risks, and rapidly recover.
• Our crisis and emergency response operational policies and procedures have thus
evolved to enhance flexibility, speed and effectiveness. Rapid mobilization is supported by
recognizing risk upfront, including those associated with delayed response, and
preparedness.

WBG Disaster Risk Management (DRM) Activity
• WBG provides DRM support across 5 mutually reinforcing pillars : risk identification, risk reduction, preparedness, financial protection and resilient reconstruction.
• WBG’s DRM portfolio has grown from US$2B in FY10 to US$3.8B in FY13. DRM-related activities accounted for over 11% of total WBG FY13 commitments.
• The proportion of operations supporting ex-ante disaster risk management activities (as opposed to post-disaster reconstruction) has grown: from 67% of all DRM operations during FY06-FY11 to 83% during FY10-FY13. However post-disaster planning and reconstruction remains a key area of investment for the WBG.
• The Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR.org) is a partnership of 41 countries and 8 international organizations committed to helping developing countries reduce their vulnerability to natural hazards and adapt to climate change. It is also the WBG’s focal point for DRM.5
WBG Crisis Management Activity
• WBG is pursuing a more forward leaning approach to
engaging in fragile and conflict contexts.
• WBG is proactively supporting crisis management in
crisis contexts, for example:
In the Central African Republic, we committed
USD $100 million to restore basic government
services and provide food, healthcare and other
supplies.
In the Sahel we have pledged U$ 1.5 billion in
new regional investments. This includes $300
million in new loans and equity investments
from the IFC. MIGA is also providing $585
million in guarantees in collaboration with
commercial risk guarantees from IDA.
We are supporting the Jordanian and Lebanese
Governments to strengthen local institutional
capacity to host and integrate Syrian refugees.

Procurement Opportunities on WB-funded projects and
Corporate procurement
• Project procurement : most opportunities for suppliers of goods, works and
consulting services are on World Bank-funded projects. Procurement notices and
request for expressions of interest issued by borrowing countries are published
on the World Bank website (worldbank.org/projects) and in the United Nations
Development Business website www.devbusiness.com in addition to local
papers.
• Corporate procurement, World Bank is the hiring body : a small number of
consulting opportunities are offered directly by the World Bank (project
preparation, feasibility studies, etc). These opportunities are found on the
EConsultant2 site (https://wbgeconsult2.worldbank.org/ ). Consultants must
register to access notices and apply.

Proposed changes
• Reorganization of the current Procurement Guidelines into a modern procurement framework with clear roles and responsibilities
• Updated procurement techniques that are market-centric
• Stronger focus on fiduciary and project risk management that will allow for better targeting of Bank resources
• More targeted initiatives to support country capacity building
• Strategic engagement with key suppliers to improve overall performance
• Centralized complaint monitoring and tracking
What will NOT Change
• The Bank Procurement Framework will remain the default procurement mechanism for Bank operations
• Adding to and restructuring the current mandatory regulations
• The framework will remain fully committed to risk management, country procurement capacity building, and the application of good practices such as the standard bidding documents (SBDs)
• Fraud and corruptions guidelines will remain in force
• Value for money is critical to development
• Informed by market-focused Procurement Strategy for Development
• Expanded options to apply non-price attributes
With minimum criteria for quality
Scoring method to evaluate non-price aspect of the bid
Weighted against a scoring model for total cost
• Bidding documentation to specify upfront logical, clearly articulated, comprehensive and
relevant criteria
