Currently, the project needs to focus on: (i) advancing the activities on the critical path; (ii) awarding the remaining large contracts and (iii) accelerating disbursements. The commitments under the project have risen significantly over the last year to 82% with the signature of two of three key infrastructure contracts at ESCOM and is expected to rise to 94% by the end of September 2016. Disbursement continues to be low, but as mobilization of and the detailed design work by contractors’ progresses, disbursements are expected to double by the end of September 2016.
