What this guide is for
Your organization launches a PPP program that turns Madaba’s mosaics, holy sites, hot springs, farms and towns into public-private partnerships (PPPs) it can prepare, bid for, build, finance or operate, starting with the governorate it already works in.
The case
Madaba’s organizations can build the place they work in
Madaba has welcomed visitors to its mosaic map and to Mount Nebo for generations, and most of the governorate’s organizations have watched its larger projects from the outside. The projects of the next fifty years will be prepared, built and run by many organizations at once, and the ones that start their own programs now will own a share of the governorate they work in. This guide invites organizations in Madaba to launch a PPP program, starting with the projects at home.
The guide
Bring Madaba into the $500 trillion PPP infrastructure opportunity
Your organization opens a dedicated PPP program, a team and a set of offers that take part in Madaba’s heritage, tourism, water, energy, farming, transport and urban projects, starting with its place in Jordan’s $86 billion of projects.
01
A Madaba PPP team
A dedicated team that knows how PPPs are prepared, procured and financed follows every project in Madaba from the first market sounding and decides early where the organization can prepare, bid, build, finance or operate.
02
A place in the governorate’s consortia
Municipalities, hotels, tour operators, mosaic workshops, farms, contractors and local investors join the consortia that bid for Madaba’s projects, bringing the land, the operating knowledge and the local workforce that international partners need.
03
Projects from the mosaics to the Dead Sea
The Madaba Map, Mount Nebo, Umm ar-Rasas, Mukawir, the Ma’in hot springs and the Kings’ Highway all depend on water, power and transport. An organization that understands those links can shape projects that serve several of them at once.
04
Madaba-led direct proposals
Jordan’s PPP Law No. 19 of 2023 accepts direct private proposals under Article 15. An organization in Madaba can design a project around a need it sees every day, such as a visitor shuttle to Mount Nebo, a cold store for olive farmers or a municipal solar plant, and propose it with partners who finance and build it.
05
Pilots as small-scale PPPs
PPP Regulation No. 9 of 2024 defines small-scale PPPs below $14.1 million, which can be bundled into one feasibility report and one tender. A small concession in Madaba gives the organization a live asset, a reference and a place in the larger projects that follow.
Why organizations in Madaba
Madaba’s organizations can build the place they work in
Madaba holds the 6th century mosaic map in the Church of Saint George, Mount Nebo, Umm ar-Rasas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004, and the Ma’in hot springs. Each new project depends on the organizations already working there, and each one can make them partners in what is built.
Where organizations in Madaba fit in a PPP
- Preparation
- Local data, land and needs that shape projects the governorate can use and investors can finance.
- Tender
- Places in consortia beside international developers, contractors and operators.
- Financial close
- Equity, land contributions and local investors beside the banks and funds.
- Operation
- Operators, service firms and a workforce that run the asset in Madaba for decades.
- Exit
- Stakes that local and regional investors can buy, including tokenized notes.
One governorate, many linked projects
The mosaics and the archaeological park, Mount Nebo, the hilltop fortress of Mukawir above the Dead Sea, the Ma’in hot springs, the olive and fruit farms, Wala Dam and the city’s water network all sit close to each other in Madaba. A project in one of them changes the demand for the others, which gives organizations that see the whole governorate an advantage in shaping the next one.
Why a program, and why now
The consortia for Jordan’s next projects are forming now. A program gives an organization in Madaba a team, a pipeline and the partners to act on it, and the organizations that join the first projects will help set the standards the rest of the governorate follows.
Futureproofing
Futureproof Organizations in Madaba for the infrastructure singularity
This free 17-page guide shows how, with small PPPs in parallel, PPP research labs, artificial intelligence, robotics, tokenization and six first steps.
Jordan and Aqaba
An $86 billion pipeline to start with
The projects that reach Madaba will need local partners to prepare, build and run them. An organization that delivers one PPP in Madaba can carry the same team to Aqaba and to the next project across Jordan.

- of PPP and infrastructure projects in development in Jordan
- $46B
- of them anchored in Aqaba
Artificial intelligence
AI fits Madaba’s visitor and water systems first. It can forecast visitor flows at the Church of the Map and Mount Nebo, plan traffic on the Kings’ Highway, find leaks in the city’s water network and schedule irrigation for the olive and fruit farms. An organization in Madaba can bring those tools into every concession it joins and use the same data to find the next project worth proposing.
Robotics
Heritage sites, farms and water works are where robots can help Madaba first. Drones and scanning robots can map and monitor mosaics and ruins from Madaba to Umm ar-Rasas, help harvest the olive crop and inspect dams and pipelines, and the organizations that run them will need Jordanian technicians trained in Madaba to operate and maintain them.
Tokenization
Tokenization lets the people and companies of Madaba own a share of the projects around them. An organization can offer tokenized stakes in a heritage guesthouse, a hot springs resort or a solar plant to local and regional investors, pay them from the asset’s own revenue and keep the governorate’s savings working at home.
Small PPPs and research labs
Madaba is small enough to test a new idea quickly and visited enough to prove it. An organization in Madaba can host a PPP research lab, run pilots on its own land and assets and publish every result, so the pilots that work in Madaba become the models for the rest of Jordan.
Unsolicited proposals
A direct proposal lets an organization in Madaba bring a project built around a need it knows better than anyone, from a visitor service at Mount Nebo to a cold store for olive farmers. It can propose the project as its own, protect the ideas behind it and keep the right to match the best offer at tender.
The program
How the program could work
The program can sit inside the organization’s strategy or business development team, with a PPP lead at its center and offers built from what the organization already owns and runs in Madaba.
- PPP team
- A small team of business, technical, legal and finance people that covers every PPP in Madaba from the first market sounding.
- Pipeline
- A map of Madaba’s projects by sector and stage, and the ones that fit the organization’s land, assets and skills.
- Consortia
- Partnerships with developers, contractors, operators and banks bidding for Madaba’s projects.
- Local supply
- Services, staff, land and equipment the organization can offer every concession in the governorate.
- Direct proposals
- Projects proposed under Article 15 around needs the organization sees in Madaba every day.
- Pilots
- Small-scale PPPs below $14.1 million that build a track record on live assets in Madaba.
- Partners
- Agreements with the governorate’s public bodies, municipalities, tourism firms, investors and other organizations in Madaba.
What the organization gains
The organization gains contracts and revenue that last as long as the concessions it joins, a bigger role in the governorate it already works in and a reference it can carry to every other project in Jordan.
It also gains a voice in how Madaba grows. The organizations that help prepare, build and run the governorate’s first AI, robotics and tokenized PPPs will shape its heritage, its farms and its towns for the next fifty years.
