3.4.4. Technical Audit
Technical audit will be undertaken by Inspectorate General IG under MPW during implementation of civil works packages to assess to what extent the required quality has
been achieved. Technical Audit findings will be used by DGH in assessing the performance of the DSC and the civil works contractors. This information will also be presented at the six
monthly meeting of MPW, IBRD and the Ministry of Finance.
3.5. Training and Workshops
For reasons of efficiency training might be conducted largely in regional centres. Annex 9 provides further details of the proposed Training Program, summarised in the following
Table 3.2. These activities are apart from the mentoring and training to be provided by the DSC
consultants under their TOR, for their own staff and for contractors’ staff. Table 3.2 : Summary of Training Program

These training activities will be made available during the project, to ensure that project preparation, procurement and implementation is adequately supported. The above number
of trainees has been estimated without identifying candidates. If job-holders have previously undergone the relevant training, and additional training is not required, these
trainee numbers and possibly the course topics may not be achieved. PMU will monitor and report training related to WINRIP in the Project Progress Reports PPRs.
3.5.1 Procurement Training
The training of all project managers and procurement committees in the procurement procedures required to be used under WINRIP is crucial. This training program is on the
critical path for procurement, as indicated in the Project Implementation Schedule reviewed in Section 4.1, and it will need to be prepared and delivered as soon as possible to ensure
that procurement of WP 1 contractors is not delayed.. Experienced staff of DGH will act as trainers, alongside CTC and DSC staff, and Advisors.
3.5.2 Training in Project Management
Project Managers in the SatKer Units at National Provincial level are required to have successfully completed a special training program before being appointed. These training
programs are provided annually by DGH.

Typically, class sizes are limited to 30 people, and the course will last one month. It is possible that two classes will be required for staff in readiness for WP 1, and a single class
will be needed for subsequent years.
