CHALLENGES AND PROPOSED SOLUTIONS
Demand for infra-structure is much higher than our allocation. LRAD projects enhancing and benefiting from GADS Non compliant service providers particularly on RLS procurement, request for upfront payment and being technically not proficient. There is a need to adopt a long term view to project planning and implementation. Coordination with different local municipalities. MEC/MMC forum

Plans to enhance delivery
Procurement through the tender process limits working with a large number of service providers. Monitoring and evaluation of quality of work done using the services of TDS and Knowledge and Project Management. Tenders will be more attractive to quality service providers
