Inadequate project preparation is a bottleneck for the good development of infrastructure in developing countries
Lack of capacity, experience, and / or public sector resources for project preparation, particularly in
developing economies.

Identification of a need or a project
Project solution / technical design
Project feasibility analysis
Project structuring, etc.
The costs of preparing infrastructure projects in developing countries generally range between 5-10%
of the total project investment and about 3-5% of the project costs in developed countries.
