To determine whether there was: 

 

Proper Funding Authority Compliance with Proper Procurement Process Actual Implementation and Compliance with Approved Plans and Specifications



NCR: C-5 Extension (SLEX/West Service RdSucat) costing P578.527M was commenced by READYCON TRADING/GARDIOLA without funding cover, Notice of Award and Contract Eventually, P200M was released from DPWH lump sum appropriation nationwide under the 2009 GAA



ISABELA 4TH DEO: Notices of Award for 3 projects costing P24.1M were issued to RITZ COMMERCIAL five days before receipt of

SARO 



No formal transmittal of SAROs and NCAs from DBM or DPWH-CO/RO to Isabela 2d and 4th PAMPANGA: Rehab/Improvement of Balitucan, San Ildefonso, Magalang Spillway was funded from DPWH savings but without appropriate realignment authority

Remarks

P 38,595,932.14 Not covered or included in the APP of the 1st Pangasinan Engineering District. It appears that there was no proper conceptualization of the project in the absence of Project Procurement Management Plan (PPMP) and APP. Such lack of proper planning put into question the necessity of the project although the audit team recognizes that the SARO has identified the specific project to be funded. 139,621,086.39 Implemented in 4th Isabela DEO which were not covered by an approved APP. Further, no certification as to availability of funds was issued by the Accountant for the total contract cost. It was verified, however, that the lack of the certification of the Accountant was due to non-awareness that funds were indeed received and NCAs were credited to their Land Bank MDS account. 513,182,359.62 Pampanga 1st and Pampanga Sub-DEOs failed to comply strictly with; a) the need to prepare an APP as 26 projects implemented in the Pampanga Sub-DEOs were not covered by an approved APP; b) the specific procedures in the determination of eligibility of bidders; and c) the desired effective internal control of its procurement process. 5,680,214,547.51 Of the 254 projects, 245 projects or 96.5% did not undergo the required procedure of procurement planning as provided in Section 7 of RA 9184 and its revised IRR. Projects that were funded out of the lump sum appropriation were not included in the Regular Infrastructure Program, hence, the individual PPMPs and APP were made upon receipt of the SAROs. Identification of the projects to cover the lump sum appropriations were based as the need arose, thus, these projects were not previously identified and included in the Regional Development Investment Program.

The Aggregate Base Course (Item 201) in the roadway has already eroded.

The project is not being utilized at present due to the defects of the inlet structure of the water gate that was tilted. The left and right portions of the dike were damaged, and the embankment has eroded. Dredged materials were dumped on the river banks and have partly eroded back to the river. Siltation of the river was also noted. The gravel surface was no longer in the desired grade as called for in the plans and specifications. Scaling and fissures were observed in some sections of the PCCP, landslides and deep excavated portions were noted on the mountainous and hilly terrain sections of the roadway, hence posing difficulty to all types of vehicles passing thru the road.

In Libod, Camalig, Albay, almost the entire road has minor scaling and the edges have visible cracks. There was also a destroyed portion of the flood control structure due to the installation of drainage pipe. The Lanigay-Bongao-Santicon Farm to in Polangui, Albay is no longer passable due to heavily eroded roadway. The Aggregate Base Course (Item 201) in the roadway has already eroded and Item 102 (Surplus Common Excavation) was already covered with thick vegetation.

The Aggregate Sub base Course (Item 200) was mostly washed out from the roadway. The roadside is thickly vegetated which blocks the flow of water and causes the accumulation of rainwaters in the roadway. It was also noted that a cracked portion in one of the slope protection was caused by the seepage of water from the roadway.
