The department has put in place an advisory team to select the suitable agency based on their capabilities. It will be the selected consulting firm’s job to determine the development trend of the steel sector in the world and the region. 
The selected firm will also have to assess Vietnam’s competitiveness in the sector compared to other countries, help choose contractors and technologies, and evaluate the environmental impact in implementing the master plan.
