The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Southern Leyte District Engineering Office (SLDEO) has fully adapted the Project Contract Management Application (PCMA) in the bid to enhance project monitoring and contract management.
In a report sent to PIA, District Engineer Ma. Margarita C. Junia said that starting this quarter, the field office implemented the PCMA, after a series of trainings to all 15 project engineers this year.
The PCMA replaces the project monitoring system used to monitor projects from 2015 and prior years.
She said that aside from improved monitoring of project contracts, the new system also aims to achieve transparency since project updates can be viewed online.
The PCMA include data quality and internal control features to prevent basic data problems from occurring, immediately highlighting the error and preventing data entry until corrected.
Through the PCMA, the public can verify the data available online and actual physical accomplishments of project on sites, according to the report of DPWH.
The PCMA utilizes the new project identification and project component identification structure in the multi-year programming and scheduling application.
The application adheres to the new way of project identification with monitoring of physical accomplishments will be by project, project component, and contract.
It was learned that under the 2016 infrastructure projects based on National Expenditure Program, the district office has P1 billion worth of infrastructure projects this year.
The SLDEO is tasked to maintain 298.93 kilometers of national roads and 153 bridges, built in 18 towns and Maasin City, the provincial capital.
