📋 Tender Overview
Mr. Pham Thy Hung, Deputy Director of the Procurement Management Department, Ministry of Finance, said: The Decree not only applies the traditional PPP model but also includes forms of joint venture, association with public assets and the three-house model: State - School - Enterprise. According to Mr. Hung, the Decree brings the following highlights: First, the Decree clearly identifies groups of fields, products and projects eligible for public-private cooperation, such as digital transformation projects, data infrastructure construction, innovation centers, or projects to commercialize scientific research results. Second, the project procedures and content are designed to be maximally simplified. Third, the Decree stipulates many outstanding preferential policy mechanisms, including tax incentives, land use fee exemption and reduction, and incentives related to revenue compensation for investors. Mr. Pham Thy Hung - Deputy Director of the Department of Bidding Management, Ministry of Finance Notably, the Decree also solves many problems related to joint ventures and partnerships with public assets. When a new legal entity is not established, public asset valuation is not required, and profits can be divided according to the contribution ratio, including intangible assets such as data, software or intellectual property rights - contents that were previously not clearly legalized. Mr. Pham Thy Hung - Deputy Director of the Procurement Management Department, Ministry of Finance said: Another important point is strong decentralization for autonomous public service units. The head of the unit can independently evaluate assets and approve association and joint venture projects without asking for advice from superiors. This is a huge change, creating initiative and flexibility for research institutes, universities or public technology units when implementing PPP cooperation. Decree 180 has been positively received by the business community, especially large technology enterprises and innovative startups. The Ministry of Finance has coordinated with many ministries, branches and localities to review and select feasible projects. To date, project proposals have been received from about 10 ministries, branches and more than 20 localities, with about 60-70 projects. Public-private cooperation is considered very potential, contributing to common development, especially in the fields of science, technology, innovation and digital technology, where technology enterprises play an important role. Participating in major state projects as a partner, co-designing regulations and proposing innovative ideas and new technologies, will help realize the goal of making Vietnam an advanced country in science and technology by 2045.
