4. Brief overview of current OSBP development
77 border post is identified potential OSBP
27 of them a either the stage of construction.
75 projects out of 433 decomposed PIDA projects are OSBP
Only a few OSBP is functioning as OSBP
Soft Infrastructure or knowledge sharing is not
catching the speed of construction
Urgent needs of sharing best practices and lessons
learned to support those borders introducing OSBP in
efficient and effective manner

5. Purpose and Content of OSBP Source Book
The OSBP Source Book was developed so that implementers facing
challenges can readily locate useful information and lessons learned
to apply to their decision–making process.
1. 1st edition of OSBP Source Book was divided into three parts
Part 1
OSBP Concept
Part 2
Critical issues in the
implementation of OSBP
Part 3
Case Studies of OSBP
Introduction
2. 4 pillars as a basis of OSBP development

 OSBP Source Book
guides the simple
way of adopting
OSBPs
THINK BY
HIMSELF
GIVE
UP
1. Shifted to “User Friendly”, 2. Shows Processes “Step by Step”, 3.
Provide Mutual Learning opportunities continental wide.

7. 1 Objective of OSBP SB – accelerate introduction
Accelerate smooth introduction of OSBPs for
greater trade facilitation.

7. 2 Objective of Using OSBP SB – standardize border
What happens each border have different cumbersome documents,
procedures and rules?
Another Border,
Another Procedures
Spread Best Practices
Standardize OSBPs and procedures in Africa for

8. How can we
spread out the OSBP
Source Book 2nd
edition
Increase the
ownership of
NEPAD/RECs/Corridor
Development Groups/
Development partner
Organize technical
workshop of countries
adopting OSBPs
