@CPA_Soft @rodgers_adai It's true that local contractors have suffered lack of access to adequate lines of credit, but even if this is addressed through policy, we can't speak of policy when local contractors are staffing projects with family members.

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@CPA_Soft @rodgers_adai I have seen CS @mugaa_eric dealing with a bunch of lucky yet clueless local contractors on site because of lack of capacity. Someone who doesn't understand construction will wonder why it takes local contractors almost eternity to mobilize even after payment of advance payment.

@SamMitu4 @citizentvkenya Technical competence …..then contract administration competence and then Project Management certification natural follows next

The cart should never be put ahead of the horse. You need a project manager that understand technical matters and contractual matters

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@MativoMJohn @citizentvkenya Eng. you should say it as it is:an electrical engineering project requires an Electrical Engineer with professional training & experience in project man't.The same applies to other engineering disciplines.Project man't is a general discipline;technical competence must come first.

@Bossyator The hardware owner is being unreasonable for no apparent reason. For goodness sake, where is time value for money to the very list?

@SamMitu4 @mugaa_eric For sure a lot needs to be done in terms of public education on water. Also this explains why raising water tariff uwa kazi ngumu na at the end it affects service delivery

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@mugaa_eric Your agencies, especially WASREB, have a lot to do in terms of civic education on water tariffs and charges. The level of ignorance in our population is unmatched.

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@edwinsifuna How do you intend to do this, sir? Give us your logic.

@SamMitu4 @mugaa_eric Nolturesh Water company in badly run Kajiado was taken down by non revenue water. Diverting treated water to Agricultural firms

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@cenas_j From CS @mugaa_eric post; LVSWWDA abstracts and treats 100 litres of water, along the way during transmission and distribution, 52 litres are lost. We have only 48 litres to be billed from the consumer. The 52L unbilled = NRW.

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@great_gichuhi Sir, go through WASREB's 2024/25 Report. On average, utilities lose 48% of treated water (already paid for in abstraction, treatment, transmission, distribution & O&M) to NRW. NYEWASCO leads at 17.09%, while MARWASCO recorded up to 75% NRW the previous year.

[Sam M' Imaingi @SamMitu4]

@mugaa_eric @mugaa_eric Thank you for bringing this conversation. I think now we're ended in the right direction that NRW and Water Tariffs conversations are getting the attention they deserve.
