Western Indonesia National Roads Improvement Project 24 At the end of this reporting month of January 2015, all the four 4 contract packages were still lagging farther behind schedule. The situation remains the same as in previous month as four 4 of the contract packages continue to follow a downward trend of delayed schedules. With the remaining time left of less than 50 of the contract time for all of the four 4 contract packages, the Contractors will have hard time to deliver the Works on the target dates of completion, unless a workable and realistic actio pla s or Catch-up Schedules ill e enforced by the Contractors. Package No. 1 : Biha – Krui Inspite of the high level meeting between the DGH and Contractors that was held in December 2014 in Padang wherein the main agenda were to resolved all issues and major problems that hampered the progress of the works, the expectation from the Contractor to deliver positive outcome never happened. It is evident that the Contractor never attempted to put the works toward attaining good progress as only 2.63 of the works was accomplished during the whole month of January 2015. The problem of slow and delayed progress have been going-on ever since the work commenced some thirteen 13 months ago. With only 40 or 258 calendar days of the contract time are left for the remaining 81 of the works to be done, the target date of completion in mid October 2015 may never be realized unless the Contractor will work double time on a realistic workable action plan in the coming months ahead. As the period ended, the overall actual physical work progress is only 18.71 of the scheduled progress of 67.46 toward the end of the month. In other words, there was a huge deficit of delayed works or an slippage of -48.75 behind schedule. Some of the major problems that should be given more attention to resolve by the Contractor are inadequate cash flow, shortage of labor for drainage works and insufficient supply of aggregates for base and asphalt mix. A more detailed status of this Package is presented in ANNEX P-I Executive Summary Report. Package No. 2 : Padang Sawah – Sp. Empat Including Air Gadang Bridge As of end this month the total overall work progress is 40.41 against scheduled progress of 50.52 which is still behind schedule by -10.11 . In this reporting month January 2015, the progress showed signs of slight improvement with respect to eliminating the previous negative slippages to put the progress on schedule. Although a good o th’s progress of . as acco plished duri g the period, the olu e of ork do e was not enough to come close to the schedule. Major problems that are still unresolved are the carryover problems from previous months such as the frequent breakdown of the Asphalt Mixing Plant where the bulk of the progress depends on and the redesign of the sub-structure of Air Gadang Bridge which is still on the exploration works soil investigation. To date, the delayed work is still on a manageable level, but it is still a bit of concern that unless the current problems are addressed immediately, the delayed works will further fall behind in the coming months.
