As expected due to the fasting period and the long holidays during the month of July 2014, the cummulative work progress of the four 4 on-going Construction packages failed to gain any
substantial accomplishments to reduce the negative slippages.
At the end of this reporting month of July 2014, all the four 4 contract packages were all lagging behind schedule. The situation remains the same as in previous month as all the contract packages
continue to follow a downward trend of delayed schedules.
Packages No. 1 : Biha Krui
Based on previous month s figures, the negative slippage or delayed works further slipped down to -19,71
against -14,35
in June 2014. At the current rate of progress since the works started in January 8, 2014 which is only
4,79 to date, or a miniscule monthly work progress of
0,68 per-
month, the project will never be completed on the target date of completion on October 9, 2015. Unless a realistic workable action plan and catch up schedule is implemented by the Contractor, the
work delays will keep on accumulating.
Packages No. 2 : Padang Sawah Sp. Empat Including Air Gadang Bridge
The previous month s percentage of delayed works of -4,82
which was still at manageable stage also incurred downward trend of negative slippage of
-7.80 this end of month.
The DSC Team leader issued a letter to the Contractor wherein various recommendation were suggested to the Contractor to implement in order to catch up with the work schedule. In addition
the issued letter served as first warning to the Contractor that unless there are valid reasons for the delay, sanctions in accordance with the Contract will be recommended against the Contractor.
Package No. 3 : Manggopoh Padang Sawah
Although the current slippage of -3.10
this month, the delayed works is also leading to a

downward trend from -2,00
the previous month. As previously mentioned in the last Monthly Progress Report, the delayed works remain to be still manageable as of this end of the month.
Work activities shall be closely supervised and monitored in order that the delayed works could be reduced or attain an ahead of schedule progress in the coming month.
Package No. 4 : Ipuh Bantal
The current status of this contract package is similar with that of Package No. 1 wherein the negative slippage of
-9,07 incurred last month further slipped down to
-11,98 as of end of this
reporting month. To address the downward trend of delayed works, the head of BBPJN III Palembang called up a
meeting last July 17, 2014.
The Contractors were claiming that the delays were mainly caused by the insufficient width of Right of Ways to accommodate the designed roadway cross sections, that works could not be executed
due to the ROW constraints.
CTC s opinion on this matter is that the Contractors claim is not valid reason as this ROW problem should have been anticipated by the Contractors in the conduct of Field Engineering during the early
days of the contract period and solutions should have been rendered at that time.
In general, the Contractors of the four 4 on-going construction packages are not performing well in the execution of the works. Unless a realistic Catch-up Schedule will be strictly enforced and
implemented, the Contractors of the four 4 on-going sub-projects could not deliver the Packages on the target dates of completion.
For contract packages under AWP-2 and AWP-3 which have a combined total of 17 Packages, a brief
summary of the actual activities and status as of this reporting period are presented in Table 1.1,
page 7 of this Report.

The DSC will be responsible for quality assurance of materials and workmanship, certifying whether or not contractors have achieved the required results, as well as documentation and reporting based

furnished to the Design Supervision Consultant for provisional reference for quality requirements of the projects.
