Third Party Quality Audit & Project Monitoring Consultancy Works in 5

ULBs of Telangana under Telangana Municipal Development Project

(TMDP).

1.0 BACK GROUND

1.1 The Telangana Municipal Development Project (TMDP) is a US $147 Million million project being implemented by the Government of Telangana (GoT) with support from World Bank (Bank loan of US $ 147 million).

1.2 The project development objective is to help improve i) high-priority urban

services in selected ULBs of Telangana, and ii) the capacity of ULBs to develop and manage urban services. Urban Services to improve will be chosen and implemented by eligible ULBs who self select themselves in a demand driven manner based on access criteria established under the project which would be approved by the Steering Committee in the Government of Telangana. The project will support improvements in the financial, technical, and management capacities of all ULBs of Telangana through TA and as a condition for infrastructure financing. The project will also pursue improvement of the state-level framework that defines ULBs‟ autonomy, accountability, and incentives for performance, as well as GoT‟s capacity to monitor, and provide policy and technical support for, ULBs performance and development. The project will also lay the groundwork for capacity building of the urban poor through studies and community training centers.

1.3 One of the key component is Urban Infrastructure Investment, Component C,

(US $ 121 million of which US $ 85.05 million from Bank): This component provides investment support (loans, project support grants and guarantees) accessible to ULBs on the principles of self-selection for upgrading urban services, such as water supply (improvements), solid waste management, urban roads, street lighting slum up gradation, and other select obligatory and discretionary municipal services and approved by the Steering Committee in Government of Telangana. To be eligible, ULBs need adequate financial capacity to sustainably finance and operate the facilities and an adequate and feasible plan to improve their financial and management capacity. This component will be funded through the Telangana Urban Infrastructure Fund (TUIF), which is a Trust registered under the Indian Trust Act. The TUIF is an intermediate entity which will receive funds from the CDMA, and will fund the sub-projects at the ULB level by providing sub-loans and capital grants to them. The component will also include establishment of Multipurpose Community Resource Centers targeted for the urban poor.

1.4 Nature of Sub-projects

All urban sector sub-projects will be eligible under the project including city roads, sewerage, water supply, sanitation, solid waste management, street lighting, energy

2

efficiency improvement, and community centers mainly to host self-help groups and job training for the poor.

In the second batch Water Supply sub-projects are being taken up in 5 ULBs in

Telangana (Kothagudem Municipality, Kollapur Nagar Panchayat, Medak Municiplaity, Jammikunta Nagar Panchayat and Huzurabad Nagar Panchayat) 1.5 Project Management and Sub Project Implementation

Each ULB is setting up an internal „Project Management Unit (PMU) comprising ULB engineers and will be supplemented by additional engineers from PHED (Public Health Engineering Department) and MSU/TMDP as needed. The Third Party Quality Audit consultant, whose services are being procured under this ToR, would undertake Quality Audit of the works being implemented.

2.0 OBJECTIVES

2.1 The primary objective of this consultancy is to assist the ULBs and Employer in maintaining the Quality standards of the works by independent assessment/audit of quality of works at various stages of construction such as i) Pre-construction stage, ii) Construction stage, iii) Commissioning, Trial run and Testing Stage; and through training to the ULB staff in improving their Engineering/ Technical/ Managerial skills. Assess and report on the compliance by the ULBs and the contractors with the requirements of environment and social frame work (ESMF), including the management measures provided in the environmental management plans and the resettlement action plans.

2.2 The Secondary objective is to assist the MSU for effective project monitoring by providing project management and monitoring support.
