4.1 Detailed Design Preparation

Final Engineering Designs, Engineer s Estimates and bidding documents have been completed for all projects proposed for WP-1. WP-2 nine subprojects and WP-3 eight subprojects will be designed by DSC and the construction supervision of all the works programs will be performed by the same DSC team. In parallel with the instruction to speed up the process, detailed engineering design DED of some subprojects of WP-2 and WP-3 were prepared and completed by respective P2JN. The CTC has been instructed by DGH to review the DED of seven packages completed by the P2JNs package 5, 6, 11, 13, 15, 17 and 19. To date, detailed engineering design for fifteen 15 sub-projects has been completed, four 4 are under preparation and detailed design works of two 2 sub-projects are still pending due to proposal te replace the two 2 originally listed packages. During this period, four 4 detailed engineering design drawings which were prepared and submitted by DSC were approved by Balai Padang and were forwarded to PMU for final checking. The detailed engineering design drawings for the four 4 sub-project which were approved by BALAI II are follows : 1. Package 7 : Indrapura Tapan 2. Package 8 : Bts. Pariaman Manggopoh 3. Package 10 : Sp. Empat Sp. Air Balam 4. Package 12 : Kambang Indrapura As CTC s proposal to conduct final checking of the drawings jointly with DSC, BINTEK and BALAI II did not materialized, PMU forwarded two 2 of the four 4 drawings to CTC for final checking. The two 2 drawings that are under final checking by CTC are Package 8 and Package 10. Likewise, during this month CTC s Highway Engineer and Road Safety Audit Engineer conducted final technical and road safety audit review of the detailed engineering design of Package 16 Seblat Ipuh and actual site verifications was conducted on August 13 to 15, 2014 Concerning highway engineering aspects, CTC noted that there were three 3 alignment locations in the design that need to be realigned due to geometric standards could not be attained aside from safety consideration as the horizontal curves are too close to the bridge approaches and the vertical alignments are too steep just before and after the approaches to the bridge. With regards to the other two 2 design drawings for Package 20 Lubuk Alung Sicincin and Package 21 Lubuk Alung Sincincin wherein result of CTC s technical review, comments and recommendations were transmitted to DSC for incorporation in the preparation of final design drawings, to date, DSC have not yet returned the corrected drawings for final review. There is a proposal to delete two 2 originally listed packages for implementation under AWP-2 and AWP-3 due to the two 2 listed sub-projects are recently rehabilitated with newly asphalt concrete overlay on the existing travelledway. Monthly Progress Report August 2014 Western I ndonesia National Roads I mprovement Project 19 The sub-projects are as follows : 1. Package 9 : Rantau Tijang Kota Agung 2. Package 18 : Mukomuko Bts. Sumbar The three 3 probable roadlines for replacement which are located in the vicinity of Sibolga are as follows : 1. Batas Tapteng P. Sidempuan 2. Barus Sibolga 3. Batang Toru Batu Mundom Two 2 of the inspected three 3, road alignments will be selected as candidate road replacements and will be subjected to economic evaluation to determine if feasible to be implemented. A Technical Analysis Report For Verification of Replacement Road was prepared by the CTC s Co Team, Highway Engineer and Road Safety Audit Engineer from data and informations gathered during the reconnaissance and preliminary surveys and was formally submitted to PMU. Progress of Technical Design Review and Road Safety Audit are shown in Appendix B.

4.2 Procurements

Procurement shall be conducted under the Bank s Procurement Procedures as mentioned in the Loan Agreement. The International Competitive Bidding ICB based on the Bank letter Ref. WINRIP136 will apply to the packages with the construction estimated cost more than US 25 Million to comply with the new Bank s threshold for ICB. According to the GOI regulation, a prequalification shall be applied for the packages with the construction estimated cost more than IDR 10 Billion. Review from previous procurement process, the World Bank in the Aide Memoire requested to GOI, for next 4 ICB subprojects qualification still used Pre-Qualification and for remaining sub-project must be process with Post Qualification. As well as for all NCB the World Bank also requested to follow Post Qualification in procurement process. All subprojects for WP-1 have been started with prequalification since 30 December 2011 for ICB multiple contract. This was an advanced procurement action agreed by both DGH and the World Bank prior to the CTC establishment. All AWP-1 sub-projects had signed the contract. The last 2 sub-projects, Package 02: Pd. Sawah Simpang Empat and Package 03: Manggopoh Padang Sawah, signed the contract on December 6, 2013 and NOL for disbursement for all 4 packages had been issued by the World Bank on December 10, 2013. As of the reporting month August 2014, bids for Package No. 17 Sp. Gunung Kemala-Pugung Tampak were opened on August 15, 2014. Currently, Bid Evaluation Report BER is under preparation and evaluation by the Procurement Committee POKJA. It is expected that the Report will be finalized on or
