Our Contribution
As part of this engagement, gsc assisted with evaluating a range of transport related projects submitted under the 2018 Growing Local Economies Program.
More specifically, gsc assisted the project team to:
- Review and evaluate transport related project submissions
- Review and validate economic inputs provided by the proponent to determine the projects economic value (BCR).
- Determine the economic results of the project based on adjusted inputs
- Prepare an assessment workbook for each project that clearly documented the outcomes of the evaluation (both quantitatively and qualitatively) to be used as a basis for investment decision making.
- Prepare a written report for each project describing and summarising the outcomes of the evaluation.
gsc also made a unique contribution by developing an assessment framework / workbook that clearly and systematically evaluated the information provided by the proponent (quantitative and qualitative). This assisted the evaluation process by increasing the level of transparency for investment decision making.
