The 5th meeting of the OPPS Forum was held on April 15th for the purpose of mutual exchange and information sharing among members. Due to the influence of the new coronavirus, it was the first remote meeting using Zoom. A total of 30 people from 10 regular member companies and 2 associate member companies participated.

There was a report on the international forum that I participated in in February, a report on project screening tool development, a survey report on construction-related companies, and information sharing on new overseas PPP projects. In the future, it will continue to be difficult to hold meetings in one place, but we will proceed with project formation using screening tools.
