The scheme was behind schedule as the physical progress of work was observed to be
lesser than the planned progress (Table 8, Figure 5).
• Planned Physical Progress: 95% as of Sep, 2022
• Actual Physical Progress: 60%
• Actual Financial Progress: 65%
At such a pace of work, the project may be delayed while the project cost may be
enhanced due to differences in the physical and financial progress and variance at
completion as illustrated in Table 7 under Earned Value Analysis.
8.2 Cost:
2. The financial utilization of FY 2022-23 is 0% due to the no progress of work at site
and blacklisting of the contractor, as shown in Table 5.
3. The funds could not be allocated as of financial phasing of PC-I document and only
70% of the project funds are allocated on completion of 95% planned duration of the
project, as shown in Table 5.
8.3 Risks and Constraints:
4. The slow progress of work may result in delayed completion of the project and price
escalation.
8.4 Scope
5. The errors in measuring the length of the road during field survey needed to be
rectified as it is observed through satellite measurement that the length of the road is
27.7km (Annex-A) instead of 33.21km as measured by surveying team.
6. The project informatory board required to be fixed at site of work.
7. The key project stakeholders are required to be present at site of work to present the
field and progress data.
8. The side slope required to be stabilized and water standing in Right of Way needed
to be removed, as shown in Figure 6.
9. The loose material needed to be compacted on the approaches of the road while toe
width is required to be as per required drawings, as shown in Figure 7.
10. The workmanship needed to be improved and defects in concreting is needed to be
rectified, as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 12.
15. The clearing works are required on the deck slab of the bridge, as shown in Figure
13.
16. The under-construction bridge required to be cordon off with proper barriers to avoid
any unforeseen incident, as shown in Figure 14.

Figure 15.
18. The road furniture, cat eyes, road marking and sign boards required, as shown in
Figure 16.
19. The safety barrier required to be provided to avoid accidents, as shown in Figure 17.

data of causalities and road incidents are enclosed in Annex-B.
20. The clearing and grabbing works required, as shown in Figure 18.
21. The encroachments are needed to be removed, as shown in Figure 19.
22. The damaged parts are needed to be rectified on priority bases, as shown in Figure
20.
