And finally:
NPT AG
Project sponsors seeking to develop large-scale industrial and infrastructure projects have faced a variety of challenges over the last decade. Project sponsors have long sought to combine financial products from a diverse pool of private and public sector creditors; over the years export credit agencies (ECAs) have remained reliable and consistent sources of credit for projects with large capital expenditure requirements.
NPT AG with its multi-disciplinary pro-management, consulting and engineering capabilities in cooperation with financing expert partners are a recognized partner by the Swiss ECA “SERV” in combining Swiss and international companies under one insurance cover.
NPT AG is providing its project management and project set-up capabilities to aggregate various suppliers and supplies of a project and thus is in position to act as general exporter under a clear and transparent contract structure to allow financing of complex industrial and infrastructure projects world-wide.
The involvement of NPT in combining multi-supplier structure for financing reduces the risk of the transaction for all parties (project sponsor, suppliers, ECA, financing institutions), by:
Implementing a transparent contract management system
Implementing governance structure
Checking of contract documents (including key contractual terms and conditions)
Reviewing and approval of engineering drawings
Continuous follow up of key milestones (including the critical path)
Ensuring the interest of the lenders
Securing key contract deliverables (identified and properly described, and updated to account for change orders during the execution of the contract)
Following up reporting requirements (types of reports, times, contents shipping documents, etc.)
Ensuring that payment procedures consistent with contractual provisions
Record keeping on requirements and procedures
Audit or independent assurance requirements
Providing professional change management or contract variation procedures
Establishing a risk management plan (risk register)
Considering stakeholder engagement plan
Maintaining clear communication procedures
Ensure relevant insurance coverage, if required
Establish applicable guarantees and/or securities and coordination with lenders, if applicable
Interface management (between Seller, Buyer, Financial Institutions)
Clear contract closure procedures.
Example: SYRINGE Production Project
An actual reference plant for NPT’s exporter activities is the implementation of a production plant for hypodermic syringes, Vacutainer Tubes and Infusion Therapy Sets in Ethiopia.
