6.9 Project Risks and Mitigation Measures 6.9.1
Risks Related to Delays
Since the detailed engineering design DED is under responsibility of the Design and Supervision Consultant DSC, delay on DSC establishment affected to the
procurement of AWP-2 and AWP-3 sub-projects. As discussed previously above, 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.
Considering the WINRIP procurement plan, the Highway Engineer has started Technical Design Review in advance. Package No.5 Sp.Rampa – Poriaha is
reviewing.
6.9.2 Financial Risks
The following factors will be monitored during implementation of the loan project. •
Loan Amount •
Actual Tender Prices •
Price Adjustment •
Currency Fluctuation •
Current Estimated Situation No risk was detected until preparation of this report since the main program of the
loan civil works implementation has not yet been started with contract sign.
6.9.3 Risks Related to Quality
The quality of work is inherently tied to the competence of the Contractors and the diligence of the Supervision Teams. The competence or otherwise of contractors
shall be considered at the time of bid evaluation and prior to the award of any contract.
The quality of supervision however is influenced by the following factors: •
Ensuring that supervision staff levels are fully manned with competent, honest, qualified and experienced personnel.
• The provision of properly equipped laboratories with properly trained
operators for each package. Package supervision comes under the responsibilities of the immediate supervision
teams and the relevant DSC but the Quality Assurance Engineer from CTC, when mobilized, will periodically monitor their performance.

7 ISSUES and RECOMMENDATIONS
7.1 Current Situation
The main issue during January 2013 is the procurement of four 4 packages under AWP-1. Prolong discussion on the Application Evaluation Reports AERs will have
potentially delay on the tender.
The tender could not be started until the AERs are approved by the Bank even the Bidding Documents are ready to be issued. In the mean time, the existing road
conditions of the four packages under AWP-1, which are predicted being deteriorated rapidly by the traffic during almost a year, shall be properly anticipated.
Another issue is establishment of the Design and Supervision Consultant DSC. It is required to expedite the DSC recruitment process. The DEDs for AWP-2 and AWP-3
packages shall be completed soonest and the procurement can be started immediately.
7.2 Action Required
The project managers PPKs are required to carefully investigate current condition of the existing roads to find out whether the DED is needed to revise or not.
It is hopefully that the Bank will be soon approving the proposed consultants rank based on the Technical Evaluation Report submitted by DGH on 20 December 2012. The
opening of Financial Proposal will be conducted by the DGH’s Procurement Committee after the Bank’s approval on the report.
