CONCLUSION AND NEXT STEPS

Based on the key conclusions of the Pre-FS, the GCA shall note the follow up issues that may emerge. The GCA shall detail out the follow up issues and prepare a corresponding follow-up plan to deal with the issues. The recommendations presented in previous responses may also lead to a few follow up issues. Include in this detailing, the targeted timeframe to take follow-up actions. For example, if there is a challenge related to coordination with stakeholders about land provision or resettlement issues, specify the timeframe for target resolution for such issues and the plan for it.

The GCA shall update any previously made procurement and implementation plan for the KPBU project based on the conclusions and key takeaways of the Pre-FS. The GCA shall ensure that the updated schedule (including follow up issues cited earlier) and stages of implementation of the infrastructure provision align with any changes in the KPBU project (especially since the planning stage), the project’s needs, and also incorporates any changes in laws, regulations and/or sector policies. The updated procurement and implementation plan must contain all updated and/or new activities that are to be carried out in KPBU preparation as RTO. The procurement and implementation plan, could be presented as a Gantt chart and must be followed up from time to time from the various entities/stakeholders involved, the person/s responsible for these activities and the expected output of these activities.
