The Project covers the 3 refugee settlements of BidiBidi, Rhino Camp and Imvepi in Arua, Terego, Madi-Okolo and Yumbe districts. The project involves the following works: I. Design Phase: - This includes Preliminary and Detailed Design studies, Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) studies, detailed field investigations including topographical surveys, water quality analyses, among others and following approval of the proposed designs, preparation of the bid documents in compliance with GIZ procurement guidelines. The main outputs of this phase included the inception report, preliminary design report, and detailed design report and bid documents. About 19 solar pumped water schemes are part of the existing water supply facilities. Solar system electromechanical components assessment and consequent rehabilitation measure proposals formed part of the design process. II. Construction Supervision Phase: - This phase primarily consists of construction supervision services, which can broadly be categorised into cost control, time control and quality control of the various construction activities. In addition to the hydraulic components set-up, missing or broken solar PV modules were replaced, and in some schemes, entirely new solar PV systems and all associated electromechanical components were set up. The main outputs of this phase are monthly construction progress reports, monthly supervision reports, substantial project completion report, monthly monitoring reports as well as a completion report at the end of the defects liability period.
