Issues deserving attention
 Pay contractors directly as opposed to transferring funds to districts first; but
allow the districts to procure, supervise, certify and recommend for payment.
Transfer of funds to districts to pay contractors led to significant delays in
paying contractors (30 to 119 days) under UTSEP decentralized modality.
 To address delays associated with procurement processes, design a strategy
to support the user department in preparing ToRs.
GPE_UTSEP progress at 1st Oct 2018
Issues deserving attention
 Recruit and involve environmental and social safeguard team early preferably
at the point when effectiveness is declared. This will reduce on delays in
starting School Facilities Grant activities experienced under UTSEP.
 Given that only Contracts Committee (MCC)has the legal mandate for
contract award, submissions to MCC need to be done after all approvals have
been obtained including no objections from WB. This will also reduce on the
procurement process timeline.

Issues deserving attention
 Invest in developing competencies of activity managers in the collection and
compilation of accurate, uniform and complete records. It is an invaluable
asset especially when compiling completion reports for the independent
verification of results.
