Abstract: Since the creation of the first Social fund 14 years ago in Bolivia, these funds have been developed in more than 40 countries around the world. Over time they have diversified as well to serve as a very useful instrument for human development. The recommendations in this study are based on an analysis of a sample of procurement audits/ex-post reviews of social funds worldwide. The study provides recommendations for improving the procurement process based on these analyses. In addition, the document provides a description of World Bank instruments in the procurement area. These descriptions can serve as a guide to Task Team Leaders throughout the procurement process. Finally, conclusions and recommendations are given to help improve the administration of procurement for Social funds.
