At the end of this reporting month of September 2014, all the four 4 contract packages were still lagging behind schedule. The situation remains the same as in previous month as three 3 of the
contract packages continue to follow a downward trend of delayed schedules, while the other one 1 Package No.2 showed signs of improvement to catch up with the schedule.
With more than 35 contract time for each of the four 4 contract packages have elapsed, the Contractors will have hard time to deliver the Works on the target dates of completion, unless a
realistic action plans or catch-up Schedules will be strictly implemented.
Packages No. 1 : Biha Krui
At the end of this month, there was no substantial work accomplished to reduce previous month slippage of
-25.60, instead the behind works further slipped to
30.39. The major work items which brought down the slippage to highly alarming situation are the
drainage works 17.39
and granular and asphalt pavements 15.22
which accounted for a total of 32.61 cummulative target schedule for the end of this month. In contrast, the Contractor was
able to accomplished only 2.40
total for both of the two 2 major work items. As the action plan proposed in the 1
st
Show Cause meeting was not successful in offsetting the huge

negative slippage a 2
nd
Show Cause meeting was held in Jakarta on September 19, 2014. It was agreed that a Test Case of the first 2 weeks shall attain at least minimum of 2.53 shall be
executed by the Contractor, starting from September 22, 2014 October 6, 2014.
Unless a successful results of the Test Case is attained and realistic workable action plan and catch up schedule is implemented by the Contractor, the work delays will keep on accumulating.
A more detailed status of this Package is presented in ANNEX P-I Executive Summary Report. Packages No. 2 : Padang Sawah
Sp. Empat Including Air Gadang Bridge
During the month, there were signs of positive improvement as the Contractor was able to reduce the slippage from
-6.78 the previous month to
-5.33 this month.
Based on the last four 4 months performance with respect to work progress, the trend shows that the negative slippage is gradually reduced as months passed by.
ANNEX P-2 Executive Summary Report present a more detailed status of the Contract Package. Package No. 3 : Manggopoh
Padang Sawah
Although the current slippage of -9.10
this month, is still manageable at the moment, the delayed works are also leading to a downward trend from
-7.26 the previous month. Reason for this delay
is the minimal work accomplished on the general and drainage items and asphalt pavement which is still yet to be started.
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.
A more detailed status of the project progress are shown in ANNEX P-3 Executive Summary Report .
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
-14.36 incurred last month further slipped down to
-16.35 as of end of this
reporting month. The actual progress of only
3.73 since the project started nine 9 months ago is of much concern
than the slippage. Simply looking at the percentage of work accomplished, it seems that the project is not moving forward.
Due to the alarming situation concerning the progress of works a Show Cause meeting to tackle the current problems was held in Bengkulu last September 17, 2014.
A Test Case of 30 days period from September 18, 2014 to October 18, 2014 with 8.753 work accomplishment will be executed by the Contractor.
Shown in ANNEX P-4 Executive Summary Report are the current problem and actions to be taken to attain substantial progress in order to catch-up with the schedule.
