TECHNICAL PROPOSAL
January 2017 1
Provision of Consultancy Services for Feasibility Study, Detailed Engineering Designs, Preparation
of Tender Documents, Supervise Construction of main works and distribution network for
Combined Water Supply Scheme to 57 Villages of 16 Wards in Kyerwa District
TECHNICAL PROPOSAL
1.1 GENERAL
We have reviewed the Terms of Reference and the attached Instruction to Consultants and
found them to be very clear. We have found that the ToR has provided vivid explanation of the
background to the consultancy service including, objectives of the project, scope of work,
implementation and reporting scheduling, obligations of the Consultant and the Client. However
we have the following minor comments and suggestion.
1.2 PERSONNEL
In the ToR the input of Hygiene and Sanitation expert is not mentioned while the duties to
be done by the expert are mentioned in Section D, subsections 5 and 6. Therefore the
Consultant has decided that hygiene and sanitation promotion works will also be covered by
Sociologist/Community Development Assistant
In completing our Proposal we have made assumption that all stakeholders required to
provide input in the process will be available when required for allowing us to meet the
proposed time frame.
In the ToR section ‘D’ for WORKS Phase I, the Consultant is required to prepare a design of
community sub-projects tapping water from the distribution trunk main or from alternative
use of water source, where groundwater proves to be economically viable option compared
to the aimed Lushwa dam source water scheme. Therefore, we have added the short-term
input of hydro geologist for groundwater works in case ground water will be the option on
all/some sub-projects as alternative source instead of tapping water from the distribution
main.
In the phase II section b (v) “Testing, Commissioning and Final Acceptance of the Works”
the ToR stipulates that; Final ‘as-built’ drawings will be the responsibility of the Consultant,
therefore we have added an AutoCAD technician as a support staff for executing the task.
For efficiently detailed engineering design, soil survey is among the assignment expected to
be done, we are of the opinion to replace one Civil technician with Civil/Soil technician
For procurement of works as described in the Term of Reference, procurement expert was
not included. We are of the opinion that, the resident engineers will provide assistance in
procurement services.
In completing our Proposal we have made assumption that all stakeholders required to
provide input in the process will be available when required for allowing us to meet the
proposed time frame.
