City Meeting Hall

Tog-Wajaale · G+0

Monthly Progress Report No.03April 2026

Client: Tog Wajaale City Administration | Contractor: Awale GCC

Presented by SOMA Consult · Green CPM Intelligence

Handover Target: 13 July 2026

🎤 Speaker note

Full presentation of April 2026 progress. We are ahead of schedule but face critical administrative bottlenecks.

📈 Execution Status

As of April 30, 2026

Time Performance

Time Elapsed: 38.33% (46 days)

Physical Progress

Executed: 40.92% +2.59% Variance

The project is currently ahead of schedule. However, pending steel approvals (45 days overdue) and delayed payments put this lead at immediate risk for May.

Substructure complete. Steel materials on site. Ready to accelerate.

Forecast Risk: Without steel approval and IPC certification within 10 days, roof erection activities will directly impact the July 13 completion target.

🎤 Speaker note

We have a positive variance, but the buffer will vanish if approvals don't come within the next 10 days.

📄 Contract Data

Item	Details
Original contract amount (incl. VAT)	ETB 19,542,399.84
Variation claim submitted	ETB 12,239,503.41
Total claimed amount	ETB 31,781,903.25
Revised completion	13 July 2026
Time elapsed	46 days (38.33%)

🎤 Speaker note

Variation claim submitted 08 May 2026 due to quantity underestimation and steel price escalation.

🏗️ Current Stages (ETB)

Description	Planned	Executed	Status
Substructure total	3,669,058	5,786,248	Complete (+57.7%)
Superstructure total	1,133,143	2,894,217	In Progress
Block Works	396,847	599,356	51% ahead
Roofing & Steel	736,296	2,294,860	Materials Delivered

🎤 Speaker note

Substructure overruns of +57.7% validate the variation claim. Steel materials are on site awaiting erection approval.

Materials on Site

Total value: ETB 6,911,973.80

H-Beam 200×100: 84m – ETB 2,003,484

I-Beam 200×100: 140m – ETB 3,339,140

Purlins RHS: 2,147kg – ETB 1,111,466

Plates & J-Bolts: ETB 458,884

HCB blocks: 60% delivered

Recommendation: Certify these materials for IPC No.03 to release cash flow and enable steel erection.

🎤 Speaker note

All major steel sections are stored safely. Immediate certification unlocks acceleration.

💰 Variation Claim Breakdown

Total: ETB 12,239,503.41

📦 Quantity underestimation: 44.5% (ETB 5.45M)
📈 Steel price escalation: 32.5% (ETB 3.98M)
🛠️ Additional works (VO-001): 12.0% (ETB 1.47M)
📌 Missed items: 10.0% (ETB 1.22M)
✖️ Arithmetical error: 1.0% (ETB 0.12M)

Substructure overrun of +57.7% fully supports this claim. Awaiting employer approval.

🎤 Speaker note

The variation is well justified by actual site overruns and market escalation. Approval aligns the contract with real costs.

⚠️ Critical Blockers

Material shortage: No
Cash shortage: Yes (delayed IPC payments)
Steel approval: 45 DAYS OVERDUE
Variation claim: Awaiting approval

Remarks:
- Cash flow constrained by delayed IPC No.01/02.
- Alternative steel sections pending since 27 March 2026.
- Variation claim of ETB 12.24M awaiting employer decision.

🎤 Speaker note

Three major blockers: cash flow, steel approval, and variation claim. These are the only things holding back rapid progress.

💵 Payment Status

Work executed + materials on site: ETB 6,953,391
Payment certified (excl. VAT): ETB 4,658,531
Amount paid: ETB 3,475,130
Outstanding certified: ETB 1,183,401

Delayed payments constrain site operations. Urgent processing of IPC No.02 and materials certification required.

🎤 Speaker note

Cash flow is the biggest operational constraint. Timely payment will restore procurement and labour productivity.

⭐ Quality & Performance

Quality of works: GOOD
Quality of materials: GOOD
Overall performance: FAIR (due to external delays)

Manpower: Skilled & unskilled available.
Equipment: Fully functional on site.

Contractor delivered substructure overruns (+57.7%), block works ahead (+51%), and steel materials delivered. Performance rated FAIR only because of administrative bottlenecks.

🎤 Speaker note

Quality is excellent. The contractor is ready to accelerate – only approvals are lacking.

📝 Urgent Measures Required

Physical progress stands at 40.92% against time elapsed of 38.33%, resulting in a positive variance of +2.59%. However, without immediate administrative action, this lead may be lost during May.

Four critical actions requested:

Approve alternative steel section (pending since 27 March)
Certify & pay IPC No.02 outstanding balance
Certify materials on site for IPC No.03 (ETB 6.91M)
Approve Variation Claim (ETB 12.24M)

🎤 Speaker note

These four actions are critical to maintain momentum and hit the July completion.

✅ Critical Client Action Summary

Urgent decisions required to protect the July 13 Handover

Administrative Bottlenecks (Impact: High Risk of Delay)

Steel Approval: Approve alternative sections (H/I 200x). 45 DAYS OVERDUE
Cash Flow: Certify materials on site (ETB 6.91M) for IPC No.03. CRITICAL FOR LABOUR
Contract Alignment: Finalize Variation Claim (ETB 12.24M) to reflect actual site quantities.

✓ Contractor Awale GCC is fully mobilized. Immediate approval allows 24/7 acceleration.

Continued delay in approvals may result in reduced labour productivity, slower steel erection, and potential extension-of-time implications.

🎤 Speaker note

Every day the steel approval sits idle is a day we lose on the roof erection. We need these three green lights today.

🌍 Site Conditions

Rainfall: Bimodal (Mar-May).
Temperature: 35-40°C in April.
Soil: Red earth, ideal for construction.
Terrain: Flat, no topographical hurdles.

Weather during April: occasional rain and high temperatures – moderate challenges but no stoppages. Contractor has maintained progress.

🎤 Speaker note

Despite hot and rainy conditions, the contractor has maintained progress. No weather-related delays.
