Abstract
SODECI (La Societe de Distribution
d'eau de Cote d'Ivoire) is the Cote
d'Ivoire's water supply agency. It has provided
over 30 years of service in water supply starting with a
lease contract which lasted for approximately 25 years. This
was converted into a concession in 1987. The World Bank has
been working in partnership with the agency through
financing of investments in water supply. The agency's
approach to management has been key to its success.
Decentralization and delegation of power to a range of
different departments for the management of various tasks
constitutes effective management.
