I worked in different positions including Director of Amman Water and Wastewater Management Contract, the first PPP project not only in the Water sector, but in the Government of Jordan. My role, as WAJ representative in the contract, started from preparation the Tender documents, including detailed key performance indicators to monitor the operator's performance, leading the procurement and selection process throughout all stages, project kick off, setting up the regulatory framework and the related unit to monitor the performance and progress against the KPIs and the contract terms and taking remedial actions where necessary.
