|
The project is being implemented. Out of the 26 procurement packages, 22 packages were completely procured including:
- one (01) package was Civil Work: MIH-CW-1: Mondulkiri Water Supply Phase 1 (Network Extension) at year 1,
- six (06) packages were Goods: MIH-G-1: 4 pick up vehicles, MIH-G-2: Office equipment, MIH-G-3: Office Furniture, MIH-G-4: Lab equipment, MIH-G-5: Accounting Software, MISTI-G-6: Video Conference System.
- eleven (11) packages were Consulting Services (Individual Consultant): MIH-CS-8: National Engineer for Construction Supervision (Mondulkiri Phase 1) year 1, MIH-CS-9: National Engineer for Water Supply, MISTI-CS-9: National Engineer for Water Supply, MISTI-CS-9A: National Engineer for Water Supply, MIH-CS-11: Environment Safeguards Consultant, MIH-CS-12: Financial Management Consultant, MIH-CS-13: National Procurement Consultant, MIH-CS-14: International Procurement Consultant, MIH-CS-15: Consultant supporting social accountability implementation, MISTI-CS-17: International Public Private Partnership (PPP) Consultant (Intermittent), and MISTI-CS-18: National Consultant for Supporting the System and Data Migration (Intermittent) in water supply component
- four (04) packages were Consulting Firm: MIH-CS-1: Engineering design and supervision consultant or transaction advisor for other sites (Sameakki Mean Chey and Teuk Phos in Kampong Chhnang), MIH-CS-2: Engineering design and supervision consultant of Mondul Kiri phase 2, Stoung, Phom Proek, and Tang Krasang, and MIH-CS-7: Consultant firm for development of sector policies, regulations and/or investment roadmaps at year 2.
One (01) package of Consulting Firm is in progress:
- MIH-CS-6: Consultant firm supporting local capacity for implementation of water supply, sanitation and hygiene behavior change communication at year 2.
Three (03) packages of Civil Work are in progress:
- MISTI-CW-5: Construction of Tang Krasang Water Supply System
- MISTI-CW-3: Construction of Stoung Water Supply System
- MISTI-CW-6: Water supply development in Sameakki Mean Chey and Teuk Phos under Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Transfer (DBFOT) Contract
Related to procurement activities, it was identified some challenges faced:
a. Most of procurement packages were procured behind the schedule and thus completed behind the schedule, too. Moreover, the tender process from the Invitation for Bids till contract signing took long process.
b. Workload of PMU team – The PMU team implements core tasks assigned by MISTI and the project tasks, both of which are heavy.
c. The absent of the Procurement Consultant at the start of the project caused a delay in procurement implantation.
d. STEP caused back and forth of processes it required uploading relevant documents after PRC’s approval for the Bank’s review and after the Bank’s review it required PRC’s approval and then uploading it into STEP again. Sometimes, STEP itself has an error that we could not log in.
e. Local taxes liability/registration locally is a bottleneck of all contract negotiations.
f. Lack interest from the Consultant in applying some positions that consumed our time for advertising many times.
g. Turnover of Consultant (MIH-CS-9: Water Supply Engineer) has affected part of the project implementation since we expected the Consultant to conduct feasibility studies for some sub-projects before the commencement of Consulting Firm (MIH-CS-2). The turnover has delayed this task and required the Consulting Firm (MIH-CS-2) to conduct this instead. It also took a lot of time for the Procurement Team to procure the replacement.
