The main purpose of the paper is to examine the average performance of the water sector providers in the pourashavas to encourage conversation on identifying and addressing deficiencies in service performance in comparison with that in the rest of Bangladesh and the world. This analysis finds that although pourashavas perform on the lower end of the spectrum compared with the rest of Bangladesh on many indicators, the top 20 percent of the pourashavas are globally competitive on indicators of staff productivity, cost coverage, and daily per capita consumption of water. 2019-06-27T16:57:11Z 2019-06-27T16:57:11Z 2019-06 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/774771561640517412/The-Next-Frontier-in-Water-Supply-Service-Delivery-An-Assessment-of-the-Performance-of-Water-Sector-Service-Providers-in-Pourashavas-in-Bangladesh http://hdl.handle.net/10986/31985 English Policy Research Working Paper;No. 8919 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper South Asia Bangladesh
