The construction Department of ASER Construction is doing a very good and reliable job.

The Construction Department plays a vital role in bringing clients requirement to life. Projects are led by the department. Among the main activities carried out by the department are: – Master work program preparation and communication, delivery of required resources to projects, supporting projects effective performance through regular site visits, reviewing weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reports and send feedback for improvements. Identify gaps, cause of deviation from plan and facilitate for trainings etc. 

 It is the department’s responsibility to ensures that all tasks are completed on time, within budget, and according to the client’s requirement agreed on the contract.

We recently had the opportunity to speak with Mr. Goitom W/Gabriel, the head of the Construction Department, who shared insights into the department’s performance over the past year, as well as future plans, opportunities, and challenges.

According to Mr. Goitom:

“ASER Construction has quickly earned a strong reputation and credibility. As the company grows, so will the Construction Department. Last year, our schedule performance was 81% from original plan and 90% from the revised one. Our cost performance was 92.5%. During this time, we successfully completed two major projects—the Bole Michael ring Road and overpass and Asita-Afambo-Djibouty boarder Road construction projects. Additionally, the Corridor Development Project provided unique experiences and presented some challenges. Despite these, we managed to achieve positive outcomes.”

When asked about the plans for the current year, he explained:

“By the end of 2017 e.c , we aim to substantially complete several ongoing projects, including the Entoto Mariam–Kotebe Road project, Bole Homes Road project, Convention Center corridors development, and Kebena Riverside projects. We also plan to address any new contracts that come up during the year.”

 Regarding challenges, Mr. Goitom mentioned:

“The main challenge we face is the scarcity of local materials from quarry sites including quality crushed sand for Asphalt concrete. Purchasing crushed sand, leasing new quarry sites and deploying more stone crusher to satisfy our requirement.”

He added that having detailed work program including identified risks and mitigation plan, the department remains committed to satisfy all stake holders by delivering the required outcomes.
