ANNEX D: Sample Minimum Performance Standards and Specifications (MPSS) and
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for Safeguards in PPP
In PPP contracts, there are primary and secondary MPSS, which serve to differentiate
standards and specifications between core services and auxiliary services related to a
PPP project. For example, in rail projects, the MPSS for the service level of the train
system (e.g. high reliability of the train system to commuters) is considered a primary
MPSS, while train and station cleanliness may be identified as a secondary MPSS.
Below is a list of safeguard-related MPSS and KPIs, which may vary according to the
nature of a project. These sample MPSS and KPIs were formulated based on the type of
safeguards identified in Section 4: Safeguards Scope (e.g. environmental safeguards),
and which the IA may consider in drafting their PPP contracts.
