What Instance Générale de Partenariat Public Privé does

Instance Générale de Partenariat Public Privé (IGPPP) is a Tunisian government regulatory and advisory body established by law n°2015-49 of November 27, 2015, and operationalized in October 2017. It functions as the executive arm of the Tunisian government and the single governmental interlocutor for public-private partnership (PPP) matters at the national level, operating under the Prime Ministry with a dual mandate of (1) accompanying, assisting, and advising the public sector on PPP project structuring, and (2) supervising, monitoring, auditing, and controlling PPP and concession contracts. Its core deliverable is a digital platform (app.igppp.tn) for the dematerialization of PPP procedures, including a centralized project pipeline, tender publication, and lifecycle documentation across sectors such as renewable energy (a 1,700 MW national program), water treatment (ONAS), logistics zones (Bouchema and Gargour), ports (OMMP), border crossings (ONPFT), mining (CPG phosphate transport), and heritage preservation (Patrimoine3000).

The technology stack combines the public-facing digital PPP platform with an internal integrated ERP (PGI) system being implemented for finance, budgeting, accounting, HR, procurement, and fleet management. The entity partners with a broad institutional ecosystem including the African Development Bank (BAD), IFC, European Investment Bank, OECD, Expertise France, ALSF, WAPPP, CDC Tunisia, and Tunisia Investment Authority (TIA), providing international benchmarking, financing, and capacity building. Its legal framework has been assessed as compliant with international PPP standards by the World Bank across 82 surveyed countries.

IGPPP does not sell commercial products or services. It is funded through the Tunisian government budget and has no commercial pricing model. Its customer base is entirely public sector — Tunisian ministries, state-owned enterprises (STEG, ONAS, OMMP, ONPFT, CPG, GCT), and municipal/regional governments — while international and domestic private developers and investors access the project pipeline as a secondary audience. Revenue mechanics are therefore budget allocation rather than commercial sales, making traditional ARR/revenue multiples inapplicable to this entity.
