Panama launches tender for government building under PPP
The Government of Panama, through the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), launched on March 7th a Request for Qualifications to build a government building through a PPP project.
The administrative concession contract involves the design, finance, construction, operation, maintenance and transfer of the phase I and II of the City Government Complex (Complejo Ciudad Gubernamental).
Interested parties must submit their proposals on or before April 1st at the Department of Purchase and Procurement of the MEF.
The City Government Complex is part of a master plan prepared by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP in 2010.
The master plan will create a welcoming mixed-use district that includes a national government campus, an expanded transit hub, and a revitalized neighborhood. At the forefront of this new zone is a rejuvenated Curundú River, lined by an idyllic park with broad walkways, an amphitheater, and public artwork. The plan also calls for a new shaded plaza in the heart of the district. Appropriately scaled to host a variety of events, this lively plaza is designed to become Panama's next great civic space.
