FOR

INVESTIGATION, DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISION

1. BACKGROUND

1.1. The Government of Sri Lanka is currently implementing Climate Resilience Improvement

Project (CRIP) utilizing a Credit of US$ 152 million from the International Development

Association (IDA) of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD)

(the World Bank). The Ministry of Irrigation and Water Resources Management

(MIWRM) is responsible for the project implementation. A Project Management Unit

(PMU) headed by a full time Project Director and technical fiduciary and safeguard

specialists reporting to the Secretary (MIWRM), manage the project on behalf of the

MIWRM.

1.2. The CRIP, under its “Transport Continuity” sub-component, includes provisions for the

rectification of landslides, earth slips slope failures and ground subsidence/failures

occurred during excessive rainfall and consequent flood damages and landslides in

December 2014, at several locations of some provincial roads in the Uva Province. These

roads are under the jurisdiction of the Uva Provincial Council (UPC). The Provincial

Road Development Department (PRDD-UVA) of the UPC, which is the agency

responsible for maintenance of the provincial roads, is the implementation agency for

these rectification works.

1.3. In order to facilitate efficient implementation of the said works, a Project Implementation

Unit (PIU) has been established within the PRDD-UVA at Badulla. The PIU is headed

by a Deputy Project Director and composed of technical, fiduciary and safeguard and

support staff, most of whom have been assigned from the PRDD-UVA. The PIU of the

PRDD-UVA is overseen by the PMU of the MIWRM for all project related

implementation matters.

1.4. The PRDD-UVA intends to hire National Building Research Organization (NBRO) as a

Consultant for providing technical inputs for investigations, designs, and construction

supervision for the implementation of some complex landslide rectification and risk

mitigation and slope stabilization measures at specific locations of the selected provincial

roads. These works constitute a significant part of the total work program of the PRDD-

1.5. This Terms of Reference (TOR) describes the project area; scope of services, including

the expected inputs and outputs from the Quantity Surveying and Contract Administration

Service Consultant; staffing; and division of responsibilities between the NBRO

(Employer) and the Quantity Surveying and Contract Administration Service Consultant

(Quantity Surveying and Contract Administration Service Consultant – QS&CA

Consultant) for this purpose. The TOR provides the basis for the Quantity Surveying and

Contract Administration Service Consultant to prepare and submit technical and financial

proposals to the NBRO for evaluation of technical proposal, negotiation of contract price

based on the financial proposal followed by preparation and award of the consultancy

contract.

2. OBJECTIVES

2.1. The overall objectives of the quantity surveying and contract administration consultancy

services are to provide the consultancy service under the quantity surveying and contract

administration aspects during the project stages of investigation, design and supervision of

construction of rectification and mitigation works of the landslides, and slope failures and

enhance the stability of slopes of the selected provincial roads of the UPC and thereby to

ensure the smooth running and budgetary management of the project and thereby transport

continuity of those roads.

2.2. According to the Project Proposal (PP), 10 packages (out of total 18 packages) to be

contracted out with the NBRO and thereby will responsible to carryout quantity surveying

and contract administration consultancy services and one (01) package to be dropped from

the project and alternative proposal will be decided by the PRDD due to its non-feasibility

and nature of extensive environmental impact. Remaining 07 packages will be

implemented by the PRDD-UVA. The names of the provincial roads and locations of the

proposed investigations, design and construction supervision tasks to be executed under

this Contract and the related contract packages are shown in the Table below.

Accordingly, there are 10 contract packages for which the Quantity Surveying and
