SUSTAINABLE CITIES PROJECT (SCP)
Component A: Sustainable City Planning and Management Systems
Terms of Reference
Consultancy Services for
Preparation of Technical Feasibility Studies under
Sustainable Cities Project II – Additional Financing (SCP-II AF)
GROUP-5
(IB A2.C5/PID5)
The Sustainable Cities Program (Program hereafter) builds on a Municipal Services Project (MSP) and its Additional Financing (MSP-AF), which was implemented between 2005 and 2016, together with Iller Bankası A.S. (ILBANK).
ILBANK is implementing the Program with technical and financial support from the World Bank (WB) and European Union (EU). The program aims to help municipalities: (i) respond to current and increasing demands for urban services; (ii) plan for future infrastructure service needs in a sustainable manner; (iii) mobilize financing to fund priority investment; and (iv) adhere to new spatial planning mandates and infrastructure service requirements as prescribed by the amended Metropolitan Municipality Law No 6360 in December 2012.
The main goal of the Program is to improve the planning capacity of and access to targeted municipal services in participating municipalities and utilities. It will support improvements to the environmental, economic, financial, and social sustainability of Turkish cities by improving access to priority municipal services. The program also tries to expand its support to cities, including in frontier and underserved regions, with the goal of enabling them to secure financing as well as building capacity to directly access financing from capital markets for priority infrastructure needs in the medium-to-long term.
The Program was designed as a series of projects (SOP). The SOP instrument is suitable as it allows for the provision of financing to a single borrower, ILBANK, for subnational lending to a gradually increasing number of municipalities or utilities that are interested in a sustainable cities approach to municipal development. The SOP finances demand-driven municipal and utility infrastructure investments, with eligible sectors including, but not limited to, public transport, water and wastewater, solid waste management, and energy.
Until now, the SOP includes the following series:
(a) Sustainable Cities Project 1 (SCP-I): The first Sustainable Cities Project for EUR 121.20 million IBRD loan and EUR 23.13 million European Union grant or equivalent to US$ 132.77 million and US$ 25.20 million, respectively). DESKİ and MUSKİ are the Utilities using the loan for their municipal investments.
(b) Sustainable Cities Project 2 (SCP-II): The second Sustainable Cities Project (SCP 2) for EUR 73.5 million IBRD loan (equivalent to US$ 91.54 million) was approved in April 2018 and finances municipal investments in two municipalities (ASAT-Antalya and MUSKİ-Muğla). Municipalities under SCP-II also benefit from technical assistance under SCP-I, which includes capacity building for the planning and management of sustainable cities.
(c) Sustainable Cities Project-II - Additional Financing (SCP-II-AF): In May 2019, the World Bank’s Board of Executive Directors approved financing of EUR 500 million (US$ 560.6 million equivalent) to support sustainable development in Turkish cities. The Loan Agreement for SCP-II-AF for EUR 500 Million was signed on July 10, 2019 between the World Bank and ILBANK. The loan became effective on November 5, 2019. It aims for improving municipal needs on infrastructure, zero waste, transportation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, municipal social services, disaster recovery, urban renovation and restoration sectors.
The emergence of the SCP-II-AF is a response to ongoing technical assistance for sustainable urban development and capital investment planning being provided under Component A of SCP-I. This exceptional demand includes identification of investments to improve public transport, water and sanitation, solid waste management, energy, environment, disaster and climate resilience and social infrastructure. The SCP-II-AF will allow ILBANK to support municipalities in financing priority projects in the immediate term. It will also support ILBANK, the Government of Turkey and the World Bank to expand the sustainable cities approach both sectoral and spatially which will increase Program’s impact and development effectiveness.
The SCP-II-AF will specifically aim to enhance project approaches on city resilience to disasters and climate change mitigation and risks. The AF provides the means to invest in mitigation and strengthening a range of such climate adaptation measures in cities, which are increasingly susceptible to climate change risks.
The AF will support the same components as SCP-II: Municipal Investments (Component A) and Project Management (Component B), as described below.
Component A - Municipal Investments: This component will be scaled up to finance demand-driven municipal infrastructure investments to improve access to quality, sustainable and resilient public transport, water and wastewater, solid waste management, disaster risk management, energy efficiency and renewable energy, and improve the urban environment, municipal firefighting services, and social infrastructure and services.
The table below shows the eligible sectors.

ILBANK will be responsible for identifying eligible Sub-Borrowers[1] and ensuring that the sub-project eligibility criteria are met. Sub-borrowers (district municipalities, metropolitan municipalities or their affiliated utilities) in the project will have to meet the subborrower eligibility criteria and be mutually agreed by ILBANK and the WB.
Sub-projects shall meet a set of eligibility criteria to ensure that all sub-projects supported under the project are financially, economically, and technically viable and meet all safeguards requirements. ILBANK will work with sub-borrowers to appraise sub-projects. The reports and studies of the proposed sub-projects will be reviewed and approved by ILBANK and the Strategy and Budget Office of the Presidency in terms of technical, environmental, social, financial, and economic perspective and in accordance with the WB’s environmental and social safeguard policies. ILBANK will support the municipalities by hiring consultancy firms to carry out necessary project preparation studies. Besides financial feasibility studies including creditworthiness analysis for sub-borrowers that are defined in this Terms of Reference, tasks for preparation of technical feasibility studies for sub-projects, preparation of environmental and social safeguard documents as well as review of all these outputs will be conducted through consultancy services.
The overall objective is to carry out a detailed assessment to determine the overall feasibility of implementing the Sub-Projects[2] financed under Sustainable Cities Project 2-Additional Finance.
The specific objective of this assignment is to appraise the development of the Sub-Projects through the provision of expert's preparation of a Technical Feasibility Study with Economic and Financial Analysis; (hereinafter so-called Project Identification Documents (PIDs)).
Implementation of activities envisaged under this contract shall result in high-quality professional and technical basis for selection of the most favorable Sub-Projects that are technically and operationally compliant with all applicable standards and good practice, economically viable, financially, environmentally, socially and operationally sustainable and affordable.
The objective is to ensure the most cost-effective project selection that would generate the largest socio-economic (therefore not solely financial) benefits. The Consultant shall therefore assess the Sub-Projects for the economic project lifetime for which it is reasonable to expect that it shall be approved for financing by ILBANK and WB.
Specific objectives are:
The following outputs will be provided by the Consultant:
The PIDs must be basis for the selection of the most sub-projects in terms of technical-technological and financial-economic aspects.
The Economic and Financial Analysis (EFA) and the Technical Documentation Report must be prepared as an integral part of the PIDs. The aim of feasibility studies is to appraise the financial as well as socioeconomic benefits and costs of an investment project, thus the term EFA is used here as it is strongly interlinked with all other elements and forms part of a more comprehensive exercise of project design and preparation instead of CBA is just one of the information elements requested.
Under the scope of SCP-II-AF, the name of the Municipalities/Utilities, sub-projects and estimated number of the PIDs have been listed in the Annex-1 and Annex-2[3]. The consultancy service for the preparation of PIDs will be conducted under five different groups (lots) and there will be five resulting contracts.
For each category (sector), PIDs will include all the sub-projects of the respective Municipality/Utility; i.e only one PID will be prepared for the sub-projects under each category.
The following are the specific activities to be carried out by the selected Consultants for each lot:
During the courses of the service, the Consultant is obliged to follow the laws and regulations related to this assignment and to revise the studies according to the latest changes if needed.
The PIDs shall be prepared in accordance with the feasibility study template in the 2020-2022 Investment Program Preparation Guideline prepared by the Strategy and Budget Office.
Task-1: Technical analysis
The Feasibility Study shall provide the factual inputs for defining the appropriate scope of the project and will outline the financial, institutional and organizational needs for the construction and operation of the Sub-Projects based on a consultative process among the different stakeholders.
As a general principle, the Feasibility Study shall conclude about the technical-technological, organizational and economic feasibility of the Sub-Projects as compared to the relevant international benchmarks for such activities and to inform decision-makers whether the planned project represents the best use of the funds available.
The Feasibility Study must be prepared with all necessary background documents, annexes and documentation in accordance with applicable legal requirements and methodologies agreed with the Client during the Inception Phase.
The Feasibility Study result depends on the Demand Analysis i.e. assessment of past and future demand (projections), which is a pre-requisite for the CBA and the main determinant of its quality.
The structure and contents of the Feasibility Study shall be compliant with the instructions provided by the Client during the Inception Phase especially to reflect with specifications for the relevant sector of investment.
Task-2: Economic and Financial Analysis
The economic and financial analysis (EFA) comprise two distinct parts as economic and financial that form due diligence on the basis of sub-projects.
Financial analysis is fundamental part in analysis in the Feasibility Study, and shall be given appropriate emphasis. The minimum requirement is that the project must be sustainable over its economic lifetime i.e. there must be a flow of future revenue sufficient to cover operating and maintenance costs, including investment maintenance. For projects that involve an entity that operates on commercial basis or otherwise depends on cost recovery the question becomes one of sustainability. Thus, financial feasibility studies also represent the results to establish under a set of assumptions deemed plausible, whether the entity will eventually be able to self-finance its activities. The financial analysis shall cover the followings:
The financial model must contain sensitivity and risk analyses. The Consultant shall identify the key variables to which the financial model is sensitive. A series of scenarios shall be developed in order to test the sensitivity of the project to the changes in the key assumptions that are the basis of those variables.
There is, however, a second aspect of the financial analysis, which is of critical importance; this is to estimate the level of subsidy, which is required to make the project financially viable. The rationale for public funding is that infrastructure projects cannot cover all of the investment cost and the future operating and maintenance cost from future revenue. The estimated future flow of revenue must, at the least, cover annual operating costs but it can also cover some part of the capital cost of the new investment, in the sense that the flow of revenue can repay a loan to a bank or some other institution. However, there may be some percentage of the capital cost which cannot be met by future revenue and which requires a subsidy to make the project financially viable over its lifetime.
Economic analysis is another fundamental part of investment project financing operations assessing whether the society/community is better off with the project. It requires consideration of the expected stream of project benefits and costs, grounded in an explicit causal framework linking project activities to targeted outcomes including steps described in above Scope of Services and Tasks. This framework helps estimate project’s development impacts and rests on these following main tenets of economic analysis.
Economic evaluation has clear links to the risk assessment, which involves determining most significant uncertainties likely to be faced during project implementation and risks to achieving project development. The Consultant shall identify the key variables to which the financial model is sensitive. A series of scenarios shall be developed in order to test the sensitivity of the project to the changes in the key assumptions that are the basis of those variables.
The financial and economic analyses shall be prepared in accordance with the Financial Feasibility Preparation Guidelines of ILBANK for IFI funded projects and the feasibility study template in the 2020-2022 Investment Program Preparation Guideline prepared by the Strategy and Budget Office.
Apart from project specific economic and financial analysis, the Consultant shall prepare a brief information on budget, balance sheet, income-expense status, debts, debts to other public administrations, previously received internal and international loans. Also planned future investments by the relevant administration or utilities will be outlined including operation and maintenance costs. In addition, an overview about financial sustainability of the Municipality/Utility will be outlined by the Consultant.
Task-3: Documentation Review
The Consultant shall provide a review of technical documentation and supporting documents. On the basis of the review, Technical Documentation Report checklist will be drafted. The checklist will report: (i) the presence of all necessary project documents, permits and approvals by the respective authorities and (ii) the availability of all the designs, technical specifications, BoQ and the construction drawings.
The Consultant shall be a firm with experience in carrying out similar tasks, specifically to include the following minimum qualifications;
In case Consultants are short listed for another assignment at the same time, when proposing full time staff for any of the assignments, those full-time staff shall be different for each assignment. Proposing the same full-time staff for more than one assignment at the same time may result in the rejection of the technical proposal.
Alternative professional staff shall not be proposed, and only one in curriculum vitae (CV) may be submitted for each position. All experts who have a crucial role in implementing the contract are referred to as key experts.
The consulting team members must demonstrate strong skills in surveys, data collection, doing technical and financial analysis and preparing feasibility reports.
The Consultant’s team shall include at least the following qualified engineers and other professionals who are competent to carry out the duties described within this ToR:
The Consultant will make available the following Key experts:

The Consultant shall select and hire other experts as required according to the needs such as, geological engineer etc. CVs for other experts’ will also be submitted in the technical proposal; however technical evaluation will be conducted based on qualification of the key experts. The selection procedures used by the Consultant to select these other experts shall be transparent, and shall be based on pre-defined criteria, including professional qualifications, language skills and work experience.
All experts shall have as a minimum requirement a university degree, at least five (5) years’ work experience, be fluent in English, and proven experience in the field(s) relevant for their specific projects, and work experience in Turkey will be an asset.
Costs for backstopping and support staff, as needed, are considered to be included in the financial offer of the consultant. The Consultant shall provide adequate administrative staff (i.e. secretary, translator, interpreter, accountant, document controller etc.) needed to support the expert team in order to assure the quality of all its activities and outputs.
Consultants are reminded that communication with local Municipalities/Utilities will be in Turkish. Therefore, if necessary, the Consultant has to hire respectively qualified experts or must provide interpretation and translation services which must be covered by the contract price.
Institutional and implementation arrangements for the AF, build on the existing structure under the ongoing SCP-I and SCP-II. ILBANK is committed to rapid development and implementation of the SCP-II-AF, as well as supporting municipalities to develop feasibility studies and undertake efficient procurement activities. ILBANK has set a Project Management Unit (PMU) within its International Relations Department which will be responsible for the operation of the Program at central level. PMU is the main unit in charge of overall coordination and implementation of the Program. The PMU is led by a department head and unit managers, and it has staff capacity in business development, contract management, financial management and technical management.
Individual sub-loans are subject to the mutual agreement of ILBANK and the World Bank, based on subproject eligibility criteria. ILBANK will hire consultancy firms for the preparation of feasibility reports/PIDs and creditworthiness studies together with the environmental and social safeguard documents. Review of these documents will be done by another consultancy firm and will be submitted for the approval of ILBANK and the review of the WB. Technical and financial feasibility studies will be assessed and approved by ILBANK based on comments of the WB. The documents are reviewed and cleared by ILBANK and World Bank. Following the appraisal of technical and financial feasibility studies, sub-projects for sub-loan will be mutually agreed by ILBANK and the WB. Based on this approval ILBANK will sign the Sub-Loan Agreement with Sub-Borrowers.
The sub-borrowers will be responsible for subproject investment implementation and will set up municipal Project Implementation Units (PIUs) to ensure adequate sub-project implementation. These units will secure coordination within the municipality/or its affiliated utility, and also facilitate the contacts of the consultant with appropriate local organizations. Municipalities will provide access to all available related documents, plans, drawings, data and other kind of information necessary to carry out the consultant's assignment.
For this Contract, the procurement processes in the selection of the Consultant will be under the responsibility of ILBANK (referred to as "Client ") and the Consultancy Services Contract will be signed by ILBANK as the contract party.
