Metro La Union Water District

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT REPORT

A. Introduction

1. Financial management assessment (FMA) is an attempt to determine the capacity of the executing or implementing agency to effectively manage its financial resources. Such a capacity is critical for the success of the project. FMA involves a review of the accounting system, reporting, auditing, internal controls, cash disbursement and cash flow disbursement arrangements.

2. The main instrument used to facilitate the financial management assessment was the questionnaire furnished by the ADB, which was discussed with the Metro La Union Water District General Manager, the Manager of the Accounting Unit and managers of other relevant units of the water district by the consultants in April 2009. Follow-up interviews were conducted by the consultants to better appreciate some of the responses and to fill up the unanswered items in the questionnaire. Most of the items in the questionnaires were filled up and consolidated by October 2009.

Findings

3. Based on the responses to the financial management assessment questionnaire (FMAQ, see Annex 1), records review, and follow-up interviews, the following observations were made:

1. Implementing Agency

4. The Metro La Union Water District was established under the Local Water District Law by virtue of the Presidential Decree 198 which is known as The Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973. All local water districts which were formed pursuant to the Local Water District Law are declared government owned and controlled corporations with original charter by the Supreme Court on its decision promulgated last September 13, 1991. The water district being a GOCC falls under the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission and the Commission on Audit.

5. The Metro La Union Water District was formed on September 5, 1974 by virtue of the Provincial Board Resolution No. 353. The copy of the resolution forming the water district was filed with the Secretary of the Local Water Utilities Administration on February 13, 1975. Upon compliance with the requirements and policy objectives as contained in the provision of the law, the MLUWD was issued its Conditional Certificate of Conformance (CCC) no.16 on April 28, 1975 by the LWUA. Upon the filing of the resolution of forming the water district, the local government (LGU) concerned looses the ownership, supervision, and control or any right whatsoever over the district except as provided by the law.

6. The MLUWD was formed for the purpose of acquiring, installing, improving, maintaining and operating water supply and distribution systems for domestic, industrial, municipal and agricultural uses for residents and lands within the boundaries of the district. They are also organized for the purpose of providing, maintaining and operating wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities and conducting such other functions and operations incidental to water resource development, utilization and disposal within the district, as are necessary or incidental to the aforementioned purposes1.

7. The MLUWD has the legal status to borrow money to raise funds to pay all cost of any public improvement or in the pursuit of its projects subject to limits prescribed under PD

1 Presidential Decree 198

198. It has implemented a number of loan projects with LWUA from 1990 to the 1996 composing of two (2) regular loans for the rehabilitation and improvement of its existing water systems and for the development of new water sources amounting to P15.3 million. The water district has also implemented a project loan from the Land Bank of the Philippines amounting to P3.2 million for its expansion programs.

8. The policy making and all powers expressly granted by PD 198 as amended by PD 768 and PD 1479, necessary, implied from or incidental to the powers and purposes abovementioned are exercised by the Board of Directors composed of five (5) members, representing the professional, civic, business, women’s and education sectors. The Chairman of the Board, Mr. Mariano M. Chan, belongs to the professional sector who will be serving a six-year term from 2007 to 2012.

9. Directly under the Board of Directors is the General Manager, Engr. Felipe G. Picazo, who is in-charge of the management and supervision of detailed operation of the water district. There are four divisions directly under the supervision of the General Manager, namely: Administrative, Commercial, Construction and Maintenance and the Engineering and Water Resources Divisions.

10. The MLUWD projects are endorsed by the Board and Management, for review and approval by LWUA.

2. Funds Flow Arrangements

11. Loan funds received by MLUWD from LWUA or from other donor agencies are deposited to the Philippines National Bank. The MLUWD releases fund to suppliers and contractors through this account following their usual payment procedures

12. The funds that will be available for this project is likely to be considered as a sector loan whose proceeds will be disbursed in four batches over a period 2011-2016. Usually re-lending terms include (i) Interest rate of 9.2-10.8%, (ii) maturity period up to 40 years, and (iii) grace period of 4 years. The LWUA relending rate averaging 9.65% per annum is much higher than the indicative interest rate from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)/Department of Finance (DOF) of about 3%. The DOF covers the foreign exchange risk for some of the more recent loans of LWUA. For the ADB WDDSP however, LWUA prefers to pass on the foreign exchange risk to the water district.

13. Counterpart funds are provided from MLUWD ICG funds and WD Equity.

3. Staffing and Organization

14. Under the existing structure, MLUWD financial function is under the responsibility of the Finance Unit. The Unit Head is duly supported by the Senior Corporate Analyst, Corporate Account Analyst, Cashier, and the Property Supply Officer. There are positions that are currently vacant and being proposed to be filled up by 2010. See Annex 1a for the MLUWD Organization Chart. MLUWD’s total workforce is complemented by 41 employees.

15. The Finance Unit handles transaction processing, bookkeeping and financial records, and cost accounting. The Finance Unit is composed of qualified and experienced personnel, who will be responsible for undertaking project finance and accounting. Not all key positions are filled out and most of the staff are holding permanent positions. Please see Annex 1b - Finance Organization Chart and Annex 1c – Job Description of the Accounting Staff.

16. Training is usually provided as part of their career development plan and to inform the accounting staff about changes in government policy such as the New Government Accounting System.

4. Accounting Policies and Procedure

17. MLUWD has an accounting system that allows proper recording of project financial transactions, including allocation of expenditures in accordance with respective components and sources of funds. Controls are in place concerning the preparation and approval of transactions, ensuring that all transactions are correctly made and adequately explained.

18. The MLUWD recognizes the use of the Imprest Fund System, the Voucher and Check Disbursement Systems for payments, which generates the Voucher Register and the Monthly Check Disbursement Records, respectively. Inventories are valued using the First In- First Out Method of valuation. Property, plant and Equipment are valued at cost and depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Receivables are carried at net realizable value where in provision for bad debts is computed monthly using the aging of receivables method.

19. The MLUWD adopts the Billing and Collection System prescribed by the Commercial Practices System (CPS) established by LWUA for all water districts. This Manual contains also the Meter Reading Cycle, the process flow charts, and samples forms basically needed by the WD in the documentation of its day to day activities.

20. Project implementation is being handled by a committee organized specifically for the project. This Committee is composed of members from the Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Division. The Project Management Unit or Committee basically coordinates and monitors project activities.

21. The chart of accounts is adequate to account for all activities of MLUWD. MLUWD follows the standard chart of accounts for government agencies as contained in the NGAS and adopts the prescribed coding system.

22. MLUWD does have a file management system and important papers are kept on a permanent basis while others (such as vouchers) are kept for a period of 10 years as per government rule (Chapter 2. Section 26. PD 1445- Auditing Code of the Philippines).

23. A number of deficiencies have been noted in the 2006 annual audit reports prepared by the COA auditors. Most of the findings are being rectified by the Board and Management.

a. Segregation of Duties

24. Functional responsibilities are segregated as responsibilities for budget, collection, payment, recording, reporting, auditing and custodial responsibilities are assigned to separate groups of officers and staff.

b. Budgeting System

25. The MLUWD budget is prepared by the Management Committee composed of Unit Heads and the GM recommends the budget for approval to the Board of Directors.

26. The budget is prepared for all significant activities in sufficient detail for monitoring. It includes physical as well as financial targets for the year. A monthly variance analysis report is being prepared and submitted to the General Manager for proper notification. Budget variances are being realigned or a supplemental budget is requested and requires the approval of the Board.

27. Project plans and budget of project activities are being developed based on valid assumptions by capable and knowledgeable staff.

c. Payments

28. Invoice-processing and payroll preparation procedures are adequate to provide check and balance of the transactions. Invoices are usually stamped “PAID” upon payment.

d. Policies Procedures

29. The basis of accounting is the accrual method consistent with the policies of the New Government Accounting System. MLUWD adopts the generally accepted accounting principles in the preparation of its financial reports.

30. The Manual of Operations which contains the policies and procedures that will guide the project activities will be developed during the loan implementation phase.

1. Cash and Bank

31. The Approving authorities for bank transactions are the General Manager or Admin/Finance Manager and the Cashier.

32. All receipts are deposited intact on a timely basis and at present, banks and cash balances are reconciled on a monthly basis. All unusual items for reconciliation are reviewed and approved by a responsible official. MLUWD has instituted adequate controls and procedures for recording receipts and payment.

2. Safeguard over assets

33. The Property Supply Officer under the Finance Unit is responsible for monitoring the MLUWD fixed assets. An annual physical inventory of assets is performed and the results are reconciled with control accounts. Fixed assets (vehicles) are sufficiently covered by insurance.

3. Other office and Implementing entities

34. The water districts are entities that perform project implementation together with LWUA. Periodic reporting and reconciliation of accounts between LWUA and the water districts are being performed. Flow of information and monitoring of project activities are being carried out through officers and staff assigned by LWUA in close coordination with WD management and staff.

4. Internal audit

35. At present, the WD has no Internal Audit Unit which shall provide check and control over the operations of the WD. The current organizational structure is being evaluated to properly segregate the duties and responsibilities among employees to assure check and balance over the transactions of the water district.

5. External Audit

36. Statutory audit is done by an external auditor appointed by the Commission on Audit. The Audit Reports are issued on or before the end of the second quarter of the succeeding year. This is performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. The projects are also subject to the audit of the Commission on Audit as part of their regular audit activities.

37. The state auditors had issued a qualified opinion on the MLUWD 2006 financial statements with the exception on unreconciled balances of P66 million involving the Cash account and the overstatement of Asset account due to erroneous entries.

6. Reporting and Monitoring

38. MLUWD Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the New Government Accounting System. These Financial Statements are prepared monthly and are audited annually.

7. Information System

39. The Financial Management System is being done manually. The district’s billing and collection system is computerized. This system is continuously being developed to produce the required financial reports and assures safeguarding of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.

Conclusion and Recommendations

40. MLUWD generally follows sound financial management principles in its operations as indicated by the positive responses to the Financial Management Assessment Questionnaire.

41. However, the MLUWD should take action on the COA audit findings and recommendations pertaining to reconciliation of cash, fixed assets, accounts receivables and materials inventory accounts. The unreconciled balances involve material amounts that greatly affect the reliable presentation of these accounts in the MLUWD Financial Statements. This problem should be addressed immediately in order to avoid any irregularities or anomalies.

Quezon Metropolitan Water District

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT REPORT

A. Introduction

42. Financial management assessment (FMA) is an attempt to determine the capacity of the executing or implementing agency to effectively manage its financial resources. Such a capacity is critical for the success of the project. FMA involves a review of the accounting system, reporting, auditing, internal controls, cash disbursement and cash flow disbursement arrangements.

43. The main instrument used to facilitate the financial management assessment was the questionnaire furnished by the ADB, which was discussed with the Quezon Metropolitan Water District General Manager, the Manager of the Administrative Department and the respective division managers of relevant units of the water district by the consultants in April 2009. Follow-up interviews were conducted by the consultants to better appreciate some of the responses and to fill up the unanswered items in the questionnaire. Most of the items in the questionnaires were filled up and consolidated by October 2009.

Findings

44. Based on the responses to the financial management assessment questionnaire (FMAQ, see Annex 1), records review, and follow-up interviews, the following observations were made:

1. Implementing Agency

45. The Quezon Metropolitan Water District was established under the Local Water District Law by virtue of the Presidential Decree 198 which is known as The Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973. All local water districts which were formed pursuant to the Local Water District Law are declared government owned and controlled corporations with original charter which fall under the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission and the Commission on Audit by the Supreme Court on its decision promulgated last September 13, 1991

46. The Quezon Metropolitan Water District was first known as the Lucena-Pagbilao-Tayabas Water District (LUPATA WD) established on May 16, 1975 bearing a Conditional Certificate of Conformance No. 17. By virtue of Board Resolution No. 91-1 dated January 9,1991, its corporate name was changed from LUPATA WD to the present Quezon Metropolitan Water District since it is not only for the three areas that the water services are to be provided but also for the whole province of Quezon. Upon the filing of the resolution of forming the water district, the local government (LGU) concerned looses the ownership, supervision, and control or any right whatsoever over the district except as provided by the law.

47. The QMWD was formed for the purpose of acquiring, installing, improving, maintaining and operating water supply and distribution systems for domestic, industrial, municipal and agricultural uses for residents and lands within the boundaries of the district. They are also organized for the purpose of providing, maintaining and operating wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities and conducting such other functions and operations incidental to water resource development, utilization and disposal within the district, as are necessary or incidental to the aforementioned purposes.

48. The QMWD’s vision is to be the most progressive, independent and financially viable public servant in the delivery of safe, potable and adequate water in whole of Quezon Province.

Page 31: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix K

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

21

49. The QMWD has the legal status to borrow money to raise funds to pay all cost of any public improvement or in the pursuit of its projects subject to limits prescribed under PD 198. It has implemented a number of loan projects with LWUA from 1977 to the present for the expansion, rehabilitation and improvement of its existing water systems and for the development of new water sources, with a total amount of Php 364 million. These loans were subsequently refinanced by the Development Bank of the Philippines in 2007.

50. The policy making and all powers expressly granted by PD 198 as amended by PD 768 and PD 1479, necessary, implied from or incidental to the powers and purposes abovementioned are exercised by the Board of Directors composed of five (5) members, representing the professional, civic, business, women’s and education sectors. The QMWD Board is under the Chairmanship of Atty. Gilbert D. Camaligan whose term of office is from 2007 to 2012.

51. Directly under the Board of Directors is the General Manager, Enrico B. Pasumbal, who is in-charge of the management and supervision of the detailed operations of the water district. Under the GM are the Assistant General Managers for Operations and Technical Services, and a Branch Operation Department Manager for the Pagbilao Sub-Office and Tayabas Sub-Office.

52. The QMWD projects are endorsed by the Board and Management, for review and approval by LWUA.

2. Funds Flow Arrangements

53. Loan funds received by QMWD from LWUA or from other donor agencies are deposited to either Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP) or Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP). QMWD releases funds to suppliers and contractors following their usual payment procedures

54. The funds that will be available for this project is likely to be considered as a sector loan whose proceeds will be disbursed in four batches over a period 2011-2016. Usually re-lending terms include (i) Interest rate of 9.2-10.8%, (ii) maturity period up to 40 years, and (iii) grace period of 4 years. The LWUA relending rate averaging 9.65% per annum is much higher than the indicative interest rate from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)/Department of Finance (DOF) of about 3%. The DOF covers the foreign exchange risk for some of the more recent loans of LWUA. For the ADB WDDSP however, LWUA prefers to pass on the foreign exchange risk to the water district.

55. Counterpart funds are provided from QMWD ICG funds and Equity.

3. Staffing and Organization

56. Under the existing structure, QMWD financial function is carried out by the Finance Division under the Administrative and Finance Department. The Finance Division is further subdivided into three units: Cash Management, Accounting, and Budget Management. QMWD’s total workforce is complemented by 254 employees, 224 are regular employees and 30 are casual employees.

57. The Finance Division handles transaction processing, bookkeeping and financial records, and cost accounting. The Finance Division is complemented by 18 qualified and experienced staff that will be responsible for undertaking project finance and accounting. All key positions are filled out and most of the staff are holding permanent positions. Please see Annex 1b - Finance Organization Chart and Annex 1c – Job Description of Project Accounting Staff.

22

58. Seminars and training are usually provided as part of their career development plan and to inform the accounting staff about changes in government policy such as the New Government Accounting System.

4. Accounting Policies and Procedure

59. QMWD has an accounting system that allows proper recording of project financial transactions, including allocation of expenditures in accordance with respective components and sources of funds. Controls are in place concerning the preparation and approval of transactions, ensuring that all transactions are correctly made and adequately explained.

60. The QMWD recognizes the use of the Imprest Fund System, the Voucher and Check Disbursement Systems for payments, which generates the Voucher Register and the Monthly Check Disbursement Records, respectively. Inventories are valued using the First In- First Out Method of valuation. Property, plant and Equipment are valued at cost and depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Receivables are carried at net realizable value where in provision for bad debts is computed monthly using the aging of receivables method.

61. The QMWD adopts the Billing and Collection System prescribed by the Commercial Practices System (CPS) established by LWUA for all water districts. This Manual contains also the Meter Reading Cycle, the process flow charts, and samples forms basically needed by the WD in the documentation of its day to day activities.

62. Project implementation is being handled by a Water District Project Management Unit (WDPMU) organized specifically for the project. The WDPMU is composed of members from the Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Division. The WD Project Management Unit basically coordinates and monitors project activities.

63. The chart of accounts is adequate to account for all activities of QMWD. QMWD follows the standard chart of accounts for government agencies as contained in the NGAS and adopts the prescribed coding system.

64. QMWD does have a file management system and important papers are kept on a permanent basis while others (such as vouchers) are kept for a period of 10 years as per government rule (Chapter 2. Section 26. PD 1445 - Auditing Code of the Philippines).

a. Segregation of Duties

65. Functional responsibilities are segregated as responsibilities for budget, collection, payment, recording, reporting, auditing and custodial responsibilities are assigned to separate groups of officers and staff.

b. Budgeting System

66. The QMWD budget is prepared by an Executive Committee (EC) represented by Unit Heads. The EC endorses the budget to the GM for approval to the Board of Directors.

67. The budget is prepared for all significant activities in sufficient detail for monitoring. It includes physical as well as financial targets for the year. A quarterly variance analysis report is being prepared and submitted to the General Manager for proper notification. Budget realignment needs the approval of the Board.

68. Project plans and budget of project activities are being developed based on valid assumptions by capable and knowledgeable staff.

c. Payments

69. Invoice-processing and payroll preparation procedures are adequate to provide check and balance of the transactions. Invoices are usually stamped “PAID” upon payment.

23

d. Policies Procedures

70. The basis of accounting is the accrual method which is consistent with the policies of the New Government Accounting System. QMWD also adheres to the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Starting January 1, 2006, the water district adopted the New Government Accounting System for Government Owned and Controlled Corporation which was issued by the Commission on Audit on the same year.

71. The Manual of Operations which contains the policies and procedures that will guide the project activities will be developed during the loan implementation phase.

1. Cash and Bank

72. The approving authorities for bank transactions are the General Manager or the Assistant General Manager for Operations and the Cashier or Dep’t Manager for Admin and Finance.

73. All receipts are deposited intact on a timely basis and at present, banks and cash balances are reconciled on a monthly basis. All unusual items for reconciliation are reviewed and approved by a responsible official. QMWD has instituted adequate controls and procedures for recording receipts and payment.

2. Safeguard over assets

74. The Property and Supply Officer is responsible for monitoring the QMWD fixed assets. An annual physical inventory of assets is performed and the results are reconciled with control accounts. Fixed assets (buildings and vehicles) are sufficiently covered by insurance.

3. Other office and Implementing entities

75. The water districts are entities that perform project implementation together with LWUA. Periodic reporting and reconciliation of accounts between LWUA and the water districts are being performed. Flow of information and monitoring of project activities are being carried out through officers and staff assigned by LWUA in close coordination with QMWD management and staff.

4. Internal audit

76. The QMWD has an Internal Audit Unit which provides check and control over the operations of the WD. The Internal Audit Unit is manned by four experienced and qualified staff headed by the Senior Internal Control Officer. The internal audit findings and recommendations are coursed through the Management to ensure implementation of proposed actions.

5. External Audit

77. Statutory audit is done by an external auditor appointed by the Commission on Audit. The Audit Reports are issued on or before the end of the second quarter of the succeeding year. This is performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. The projects are also subject to the audit of the Commission on Audit as part of their regular audit activities.

78. Based on the 2007 COA Annual Audit Report, COA disallowed the granting of additional benefits to the Board of Directors, excess payment of traveling allowances to the GM and the granting of RATA to the WD officers.

24

6. Reporting and Monitoring

79. QMWD Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the Philippine Accounting Standards issued by the Accounting Standard Council (ASC). These Financial Statements are prepared monthly and are audited annually.

7. Information System

80. The Financial Management System is being done manually. The billing and collection system is computerized. This system is continuously being developed to produce the required commercial data, financial reports and assures safeguarding of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.

Conclusion and Recommendations

81. QMWD generally follows sound financial management principles in its operations as indicated by the positive responses to the Financial Management Assessment Questionnaire. However, COA audit findings and recommendations should be strictly adhered to and action taken should be properly documented and monitored.

82. The QMWD should fast track the development of the automation of its billing and collection system to be more responsive to the present demands of its operation. The WD should exert more effort in the development of an integrated computerization program which will provide links to the commercial and financial operations of the district.

83. The QMWD Board is limited to its policy making activities and should refrain from participating in the detailed management of the district.

Legazpi City Water District

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT REPORT

A. Introduction

84. Financial management assessment (FMA) is an attempt to determine the capacity of the executing or implementing agency to effectively manage its financial resources. Such a capacity is critical for the success of the project. FMA involves a review of the accounting system, reporting, auditing, internal controls, cash disbursement and cash flow disbursement arrangements.

85. The main instrument used to facilitate the financial management assessment was the questionnaire furnished by the ADB, which was discussed with the Legazpi City Water District General Manager, the Manager of the Accounting Unit and managers of other relevant units of the water district by the consultants in April 2009. Follow-up interviews were conducted by the consultants to better appreciate some of the responses and to fill up the unanswered items in the questionnaire. Most of the items in the questionnaires were filled up and consolidated by October 2009.

Findings

86. Based on the responses to the financial management assessment questionnaire (FMAQ, see Annex 1), records review, and follow-up interviews, the following observations were made:

1. Implementing Agency

87. The Legazpi City Water District was established under the Local Water District Law by virtue of the Presidential Decree 198 which is known as The Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973. All local water districts which were formed pursuant to the Local Water District Law are declared government owned and controlled corporations with original charter by the Supreme Court on its decision promulgated last September 13, 1991. The water districts as GOCC’s fall under the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission and the Commission on Audit

88. The Legazpi City Water District was formed from the former Albay Provincial Waterworks through a resolution enacted by the Local Chief Executive of the Municipality of Legazpi in October 1980. The copy of the resolution forming the water district was filed with the Secretary of the Local Water Utilities Administration. Upon compliance with the requirements and policy objectives as contained in the provision of the law, the LCWD was issued its Conditional Certificate of Conformance (CCC) no.173 on December 16, 1981. Upon the filing of the resolution of forming the water district, the local government (LGU) concerned looses the ownership, supervision, and control or any right whatsoever over the district except as provided by the law.

89. The LCWD was formed for the purpose of acquiring, installing, improving, maintaining and operating water supply and distribution systems for domestic, industrial, municipal and agricultural uses for residents and lands within the boundaries of the district. They are also organized for the purpose of providing, maintaining and operating wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities and conducting such other functions and operations incidental to water resource development, utilization and disposal within the district, as are necessary or incidental to the aforementioned purposes.

90. The LCWD has the legal status to borrow money to raise funds to pay all cost of any public improvement or in the pursuit of its projects subject to limits prescribed under PD 198. It has implemented a number of loan projects with LWUA from 1987 to the 1993 composing

Supplementary Appendix K

41

of two regular loans and one soft loan for the rehabilitation and improvement of its existing water systems and for the development of new water sources, with a total amount of P90 million.

91. The policy making and all powers expressly granted by PD 198 as amended by PD 768 and PD 1479, necessary, implied from or incidental to the powers and purposes abovementioned are exercised by the Board of Directors composed of five (5) members, representing the professional, civic, business, women’s and education sectors, under the Chairmanship of Dr. Kerwin T. Sis.

92. Directly under the Board of Directors is the General Manager who is in-charge of the management and supervision of the detailed operation of the water district. There are four divisions directly under the supervision of the General Manager, namely: Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Divisions.

93. The LCWD projects are endorsed by the Board and Management, for review and approval by LWUA.

2. Funds Flow Arrangements

94. Loan funds received by LCWD from either LWUA or other donor agencies are deposited to the Land Bank of the Philippines or the Veterans Bank of the Philippines. LCWD releases funds to suppliers and contractors following their usual payment procedures

95. The funds that will be available for this project is likely to be considered as a sector loan whose proceeds will be disbursed in four batches over a period 2011-2016. Usually re-lending terms include (i) Interest rate of 9.2-10.8%, (ii) maturity period up to 40 years, and (iii) grace period of 4 years. The LWUA relending rate averaging 9.65% per annum is much higher than the indicative interest rate from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)/Department of Finance (DOF) of about 3%. The DOF covers the foreign exchange risk for some of the more recent loans of LWUA. For the ADB WDDSP however, LWUA prefers to pass on the foreign exchange risk to the water district.

96. Counterpart funds are provided from LCWD ICG funds and WD Equity.

3. Staffing and Organization

97. Under the existing structure, LCWD financial functions are under the responsibility of the Finance Division. The Finance Division Manager is duly supported by the senior staff of the Accounting Section and the Cash and Budget Management Section. Each section is further subdivided into units. The Accounting Section is subdivided into the Accounting and Cost Accounting units, while the Cash and Budget Management Section is subdivided into the Collection and Cash Management, the Budget and Management Control and the Financial Planning Units. See Annex 1a for the LCWD Organization Chart. LCWD’s total workforce is 100 employees, 74 are regular and 26 are job orders.

98. The Accounting Section comprises transaction processing, bookkeeping, and financial records, and cost accounting. The Cost Accounting Unit is adequately staffed by qualified and experienced personnel, who are responsible for undertaking project finance and accounting. All key positions are filled out and most of the staff are holding permanent positions. Please see Annex 1b for the Finance Organization Chart and Annex 1c for the Job Description of Project Accounting Staff.

99. Trainings and seminars are usually provided as part of their career development plan and to inform the accounting staff about changes in government policy such as the National Government Accounting System.

4. Accounting Policies and Procedure

100. LCWD has an accounting system that allows proper recording of project financial transactions, including allocation of expenditures in accordance with respective components and sources of funds. Controls are in place concerning the preparation and approval of transactions, ensuring that all transactions are correctly made and adequately explained.

101. The LCWD recognizes the use of the Imprest Fund System, the Voucher and Check Disbursement Systems for payments, which generates the Voucher Register and the Monthly Check Disbursement Records, respectively. Inventories are valued using the First In- First Out method of valuation. Property, Plant and Equipment are valued at cost and depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Receivables are carried at net realizable value wherein provision for bad debts is computed monthly using the aging of receivables method.

102. The LCWD adopts the Read and Bill Systems which generates the Billing Summary, Consumption Patter and Water Bills. They also adopt the Meter Reading Billing and Collection System (MRBCS) wherein the system generates the Collection Summary by dates, Collection Summary by areas, Official Receipts, Water Bills and Individual Collection Report. Also provided by the system are the Daily Cash Receipts and Deposits Records and Daily Report of Collection and Deposit.

103. Project implementation is being handled by a committee organized specifically for the project. This Committee is composed of members from the Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Division. The Project Management Unit or Committee basically coordinates and monitor project activities.

104. The Cost Accounting Unit under the Finance Division handles cost allocation to the various funding sources. All the project accounts are also incorporated in the final account of LCWD.

105. The chart of accounts is adequate to account for all activities of LCWD. LCWD follows the standard chart of accounts for government agencies as contained in the NGAS and adopts the prescribed coding system.

106. LCWD does have a file management system and important papers are kept on a permanent basis while others (such as vouchers) are kept for a period of 10 years as per government rule (Chapter 2. Section 26. PD 1445- Auditing Code of the Philippines).

107. A number of deficiencies have been noted in the annual audit reports prepared by the COA auditors. Most are minor findings which can readily be corrected either through preparation of correcting entries or reclassification entries or through discontinuance of practices which are disallowed by auditors as prescribed by the NGAS.

a. Segregation of Duties

108. Functional responsibilities are segregated as responsibilities for budget, collection, payment, recording, reporting, auditing and custodial responsibilities are assigned to separate groups of officers and staff.

b. Budgeting System

109. The LCWD budget is prepared by the Budget Unit under the Accounting Section and the Management recommends the budget for approval to the Board of Directors.

110. The budget is prepared for all significant activities in sufficient detail for monitoring. It includes physical as well as financial targets for the year. A quarterly variance analysis report is being prepared and submitted to the General Manager for proper notification.

111. Project plans and budget of project activities are being developed based on valid assumptions by capable and knowledgeable staff.

43

c. Payments

112. Invoice-processing and payroll preparation procedures are adequate to provide check and balance of the transactions. The district has a payroll program called the Stella Personnel Suite which is designed to capture the daily time record of the LCWD personnel through finger scan that generates the payroll data needed to prepare the Summary of Weekly Payroll, Payroll Register, Payroll Slips and the Monthly Deduction Summary for GSIS, Pag-ibig, Medicare and Withholding tax. Invoices were usually stamped “PAID” upon payment.

d. Policies Procedures

113. The basis of accounting is the accrual method consistent with the policies of the New Government Accounting System. LCWD adopts the Philippine Accounting Standards issued by the Accounting Standard Council and also adopts the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards and the International Accounting Standards. Starting January 1, 2006, the water district adopted the New Government Accounting System for Government Owned and Controlled Corporation which was issued by the Commission on Audit

114. The Manual of Operations which contains the policies and procedures that will guide the project activities will be developed during the loan implementation phase.

1. Cash and Bank

115. The Approving authorities for bank transactions are the General Manager or the Acting General Manager and the Cashier or the Finance Manager.

116. All receipts are deposited intact on a timely basis and at present, banks and cash balances are reconciled on a monthly basis. All unusual items for reconciliation are reviewed and approved by a responsible official. LCWD has instituted adequate controls and procedures for recording receipts and payment.

2. Safeguard over assets

3. Other office and Implementing entities

118. The water districts are entities that perform project implementation together with LWUA.

7. Information System

123. The Financial Management System is not fully computerized. Only the billing and collection system are fully automated. This system is continuously being developed to produce the required financial reports and assures safeguarding of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.

Conclusion and Recommendations

124. LCWD generally follows sound financial management principles in its operations as indicated by the positive responses to the Financial Management Assessment Questionnaire.

125. COA indicated in its Annual Audit Report that the LCWD Financial Statements are free of material misstatements and are prepared in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations and in conformity with the generally accepted state accounting principles. The overstatement of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Investment and Marketable Securities Accounts and the understatement for depreciation and loans payable accounts are already being rectified by the water district.

126. At present, LCWD is conducting saturation drive as well as revenue generating initiatives (reduction of NRW) to answer the present needs and demands of its operations. The LCWD management is continuously identifying areas for reforms to be more adept to the needs of the consumers and the community on the whole. LCWD is targeting to increase its service coverage by 20% through the on going saturation drive and increasing the number of service connection by 7,000 to extend coverage to the unserved portion of the population. This will also translate to the maximization of its bulk water supply thereby increasing revenues and reducing operating costs.

127. The LCWD should consider the computerization of its financial management system in line with its future expansion program.

Leyte Metropolitan Water District

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT REPORT

A. Introduction

128. Financial management assessment (FMA) is an attempt to determine the capacity of the executing or implementing agency to effectively manage its financial resources. Such a capacity is critical for the success of the project. FMA involves a review of the accounting system, reporting, auditing, internal controls, cash disbursement and cash flow disbursement arrangements.

129. The main instrument used to facilitate the financial management assessment was the questionnaire furnished by the ADB, which was discussed with the Leyte Metropolitan Water District General Manager, the Manager of the Accounting Unit and managers of other relevant units of the water district by the consultants in April 2009. Follow-up interviews were conducted by the consultants to better appreciate some of the responses and to fill up the unanswered items in the questionnaire. Most of the items in the questionnaires were filled up and consolidated by October 2009.

Findings

130. Based on the responses to the financial management assessment questionnaire (FMAQ, see Annex 1), records review, and follow-up interviews, the following observations were made:

1. Implementing Agency

131. The Leyte Metropolitan Water District was established under the Local Water District Law by virtue of the Presidential Decree 198 which is known as The Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973. All local water districts which were formed pursuant to the Local Water District Law are declared government owned and controlled corporations with original charter which fall under the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission and the Commission on Audit by the Supreme Court on its decision promulgated last September 13, 1991

132. The Leyte Metropolitan Water District has been in existence for more than 30 years and was formed from the then Leyte Metropolitan Water Supply System and the Tolosa Waterworks System through the Provincial Board Resolution No. 52 series of 1975, adopted on February 19, 1975. The copy of the resolution forming the water district was filed with the Secretary of the Local Water Utilities Administration and upon compliance with the requirements and policy objectives as contained in the provision of the law, the LMWD was issued its Conditional Certificate of Conformance (CCC) no.019 on October 6, 1975. Upon the filing of the resolution of forming the water district, the local government (LGU) concerned looses the ownership, supervision, and control or any right whatsoever over the district except as provided by the law.

133. The LMWD was formed for the purpose of acquiring, installing, improving, maintaining and operating water supply and distribution systems for domestic, industrial, municipal and agricultural uses for residents and lands within the boundaries of the district. They are also organized for the purpose of providing, maintaining and operating wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities and conducting such other functions and operations incidental to water resource development, utilization and disposal within the district, as are necessary or incidental to the aforementioned purposes.

134. The LMWD has the legal status to borrow money to raise funds to pay all cost of any public improvement or in the pursuit of its projects subject to limits prescribed under PD 198. It has implemented a number of loan projects with LWUA and JICA from 1977 to the 1995.

61

Total cost of improvement which started with a Comprehensive Expansion project in 1977 amounted to Php70 million. The WD is also a recipient of a grant fund for the from the Japan International Cooperation Agency amounting to Php750 million and a Presidential Calamity and Social fund of Php15 million for the rehabilitation works of the water system which was badly damaged by typhoon. At present, the LMWD has availed of Php70 million LWUA loan to finance the drilling and construction of two additional wells and two elevated reinforced concrete ground reservoir, including also the installation of transmission and distribution lines.

135. The policy making and all powers expressly granted by PD 198 as amended by PD 768 and PD 1479, necessary, implied from or incidental to the powers and purposes abovementioned are exercised by the Board of Directors composed of five (5) members, representing the professional, civic, business, women’s and education sectors. The incumbent Chairman of the Board, Mr. Teodoro M de Veyra Jr. comes from the business sector who will serve a six-year term of office starting January 2009 to December 2014.

136. Directly under the Board of Directors is the General Manager, Mr. Nestor Villasin, who is in-charge of the management and supervision of the detailed operation of the water district. The GM is supported by two Assistant General Managers, one for the Administrative and Finance and one for Operations.

137. The LMWD projects are endorsed by the Board and Management, for review and approval by LWUA.

2. Funds Flow Arrangements

138. Loan funds received by LMWD from either LWUA or other donor agencies are deposited to the Development Bank of the Philippines. The LMWD releases funds to suppliers and contractors through this account following their usual payment procedures

139. The funds that will be available for this project is likely to be considered as a sector loan whose proceeds will be disbursed in four batches over a period 2011-2016. Usually re-lending terms include (i) Interest rate of 9.2-10.8%, (ii) maturity period up to 40 years, and (iii) grace period of 4 years. The LWUA relending rate averaging 9.65% per annum is much higher than the indicative interest rate from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)/Department of Finance (DOF) of about 3%. The DOF covers the foreign exchange risk for some of the more recent loans of LWUA. For the ADB WDDSP however, LWUA prefers to pass on the foreign exchange risk to the water district.

140. Counterpart funds are provided from LMWD ICG funds and WD Equity.

3. Staffing and Organization

141. Under the existing structure, LMWD financial function is under the responsibility of the Finance Department. The Finance Department has the Accounting and Cash Management Divisions. See Annex 1a for the LMWD Organization Chart. LMWD’s total workforce is complemented by 364 employees, 156 are regular, 45 are casuals and 163 are contractuals or job orders.

142. The General Accounting Section comprises transaction processing, bookkeeping, and financial records, and cost accounting. This section is adequately staffed by eight qualified and experienced personnel, who are responsible for undertaking project finance and accounting. All key positions are filled out and most of the staff are holding permanent positions. Please see Annex 1b for Finance Organization Chart and Annex 1c for the Job Description of Project Accounting Staff.

143. Trainings and seminars are usually provided as part of their career development plan and to inform the accounting staff about changes in government policy such as the New Government Accounting System.

4. Accounting Policies and Procedure

144. LMWD has an accounting system that allows proper recording of project financial transactions, including allocation of expenditures in accordance with respective components and sources of funds. Controls are in place concerning the preparation and approval of transactions, ensuring that all transactions are correctly made and adequately explained.

145. The LMWD recognizes the use of the Imprest Fund System, the Voucher and Check Disbursement Systems for payments, which generates the Voucher Register and the Monthly Check Disbursement Records, respectively. Inventories are valued using the Moving Average method of valuation. Property, Plant and Equipment are valued at cost and depreciation is computed using the straight-line method with estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 30 years. The residual value of the assets is computed at 10% of the asset cost.

146. The LMWD adopts the Billing and Collection System prescribed by the Commercial Practices System (CPS) established by LWUA for all water districts. This Manual contains also the Meter Reading Cycle, the process flow charts, and samples forms basically needed by the WD in the documentation of its day to day activities.

147. Project implementation will be handled by a project management unit organized specifically for the project. This unit will be composed of members from the Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Division. The Project Management Unit basically coordinates and monitors project activities.

148. The General Accounting Section under the Finance Department handles cost allocation to the various funding sources. All the project accounts are also incorporated in the final account of LMWD.

149. The chart of accounts is adequate to account for all activities of LMWD. LMWD follows the standard chart of accounts for government agencies as contained in the NGAS and adopts the prescribed coding system.

150. LMWD does have a file management system and important papers are kept on a permanent basis while others (such as vouchers) are kept for a period of 10 years as per government rule (Chapter 2. Section 26. PD 1445 - Auditing Code of the Philippines).

a. Segregation of Duties

151. Functional responsibilities are segregated as responsibilities for budget, collection, payment, recording, reporting, auditing and custodial responsibilities are assigned to separate groups of officers and staff.

b. Budgeting System

152. The LMWD budget is prepared by the Budget Unit under the Accounting Section and Management recommends the budget for approval to the Board of Directors.

153. The budget is prepared for all significant activities in sufficient detail for monitoring. It includes physical as well as financial targets for the year. A monthly variance analysis report is being prepared and submitted to the General Manager for proper notification

154. Project plans and budget of project activities are being developed based on valid assumptions by capable and knowledgeable staff.

63

c. Payments

155. Invoice-processing and payroll preparation procedures are adequate to provide check and balance of the transactions. The district has a payroll program which is designed to capture the daily time record of the LMWD personnel through finger scan that generates the data needed to prepare the monthly payroll.

d. Policies Procedures

156. The basis of accounting is the accrual method consistent with the policies of the New Government Accounting System. LMWD conforms with the existing accounting and auditing rules and regulations.

157. The Manual of Operations which contains the policies and procedures that will guide the project activities will be developed during the loan implementation phase.

1. Cash and Bank

158. The Approving authorities for bank transactions are the General Manager or the Assistant General Manager and the Cashier or Budget Officer.

159. All receipts are deposited intact on a timely basis and at present, banks and cash balances are reconciled on a monthly basis. All unusual items for reconciliation are duly supported by Journal Entry Vouchers and are reviewed and approved by a responsible official. LMWD has instituted adequate controls and procedures for recording receipts and payment.

2. Safeguard over assets

160. The General Services Section under the Administrative Division is responsible for monitoring the LMWD fixed asset. Issuances of district’s properties to each personnel are covered with Property Accountability Receipt (PAR). An annual physical inventory of assets is performed and the results are reconciled with control accounts. Fixed assets are sufficiently covered by insurance.

3. Other office and Implementing entities

161. The water districts are entities that perform project implementation together with LWUA. Periodic reporting and reconciliation of accounts between LWUA and the water districts are being performed. Flow of information and monitoring of project activities are being carried out through officers and staff assigned by LWUA in close coordination with the WD management and staff.

4. Internal audit

162. There is an Internal Audit Unit which provides check and control over the operations of the water district which is attached to the Office of the General Manager. This Unit is being handled by two personnel who conduct operations and technical auditing. The internal audit findings and recommendations are coursed through the Management to ensure implementation of proposed actions.

5. External Audit

163. Statutory audit is done by an external auditor appointed by the Commission on Audit. The Audit Reports are issued on or before the end of the second quarter of the succeeding year. This is performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. The projects are also subject to the audit of the Commission on Audit as part of their regular audit activities.

164. COA Audit Findings and Recommendations for 2007 were not made available for evaluation. The COA had issued a qualified opinion on the 2007 audited financial

Page 74: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix K

statements with the exception on the understatement of the Property, Plant and Equipment account by P247 million and consequently the understatement of the corresponding depreciation.

6. Reporting and Monitoring

165. LMWD Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the New Government Accounting System and with Philippine Accounting Standards issued by the Accounting Standard Council (ASC). These Financial Statements are prepared monthly and are audited annually.

7. Information System

166. The Financial Management System is not fully computerized. Only the billing and collection system are fully automated. This system is continuously being developed to produce the required financial reports and assures safeguarding of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.

Conclusion and Recommendations

167. LMWD generally follows sound financial management principles in its operations as indicated by the positive responses to the Financial Management Assessment Questionnaire.

168. The district should take action on the previous year’s COA audit findings and recommendations, and discontinue the granting of allowances to the board and management which were disallowed by the state auditors.

169. Other concerns involve the development of its computerization program, specifically on the billing and collection aspect of the district’s operation, in order to produce informative reports, and that balances be reconciled between the commercial and accounting records.

City of Koronadal Water District

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT REPORT

A. Introduction

170. Financial management assessment (FMA) is an attempt to determine the capacity of the executing or implementing agency to effectively manage its financial resources. Such a capacity is critical for the success of the project. FMA involves a review of the accounting system, reporting, auditing, internal controls, cash disbursement and cash flow disbursement arrangements.

171. The main instrument used to facilitate the financial management assessment was the questionnaire furnished by the ADB, which was discussed with the City of Koronadal Water District General Manager, the Manager of the Accounting Unit and managers of other relevant units of the water district by the consultants in April 2009. Follow-up interviews were conducted by the consultants to better appreciate some of the responses and to fill up the unanswered items in the questionnaire. Most of the items in the questionnaires were filled up and consolidated by October 2009.

Findings

172. Based on the responses to the financial management assessment questionnaire (FMAQ, see Annex 1), records review, and follow-up interviews, the following observations were made:

1. Implementing Agency

173. The City of Koronadal Water District was established under the Local Water District Law by virtue of the Presidential Decree 198 which is known as The Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973. All local water districts which were formed pursuant to the Local Water District Law are declared government owned and controlled corporations with original charter which fall under the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Commission and the Commission on Audit by the Supreme Court on its decision promulgated last September 13, 1991

174. The City of Koronadal Water District was established thru the Sangguniang Bayan Resolution No. 92 series of 1980 of the then Sangguniang Bayan of the Province of South Cotabato. The copy of the resolution forming the water district was filed with the Secretary of the Local Water Utilities Administration. Upon compliance with the requirements and policy objectives as contained in the provision of the law, the CKWD was issued its Conditional Certificate of Conformance (CCC) no.156 on July 17, 1981 by the LWUA. Upon the filing of the resolution of forming the water district, the local government (LGU) concerned looses the ownership, supervision, and control or any right whatsoever over the district except as provided by the law.

175. The CKWD was formed for the purpose of acquiring, installing, improving, maintaining and operating water supply and distribution systems for domestic, industrial, municipal and agricultural uses for residents and lands within the boundaries of the district. They are also organized for the purpose of providing, maintaining and operating wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities and conducting such other functions and operations incidental to water resource development, utilization and disposal within the district, as are necessary or incidental to the aforementioned purposes.

176. The CKWD has the legal status to borrow money to raise funds to pay all cost of any public improvement or in the pursuit of its projects subject to limits prescribed under PD 198. It has implemented a number of loan projects with LWUA from 1995 to the 2008 composing of four (4) regular loans and one (1) soft loan for the rehabilitation and improvement of its

81

existing water systems and for the development of new water sources, with a total amount of P29.6 million.

177. The policy making and all powers expressly granted by PD 198 as amended by PD 768 and PD 1479, necessary, implied from or incidental to the powers and purposes abovementioned are exercised by the Board of Directors composed of five (5) members, representing the professional, civic, business, women’s and education sectors. At present, the CKWD is under the direction of the LWUA Interim Board headed by Acting Administrator Daniel A. Landingin. LWUA has taken over the operations of the water district due to institutional problems.

178. The management and supervision of the CKWD operations is likewise under the Interim General Manager headed by Engr. Fred Fabellon. There are two sections directly under the supervision of the General Manager, namely: Administrative, Commercial and Finance Services Section and Operations and Technical Section.

179. The CKWD projects are endorsed by the Board and Management, for review and approval by LWUA.

2. Funds Flow Arrangements

180. Loan funds received by CKWD from either LWUA or other donor agencies are deposited to the Development Bank of the Philippines and releases fund to suppliers and contractors following their usual payment procedures

181. The funds that will be available for this project is likely to be considered as a sector loan whose proceeds will be disbursed in four batches over a period 2011-2016. Usually re-lending terms include (i) Interest rate of 9.2-10.8%, (ii) maturity period up to 40 years, and (iii) grace period of 4 years. The LWUA relending rate averaging 9.65% per annum is much higher than the indicative interest rate from the Asian Development Bank (ADB)/Department of Finance (DOF) of about 3%. The DOF covers the foreign exchange risk for some of the more recent loans of LWUA. For the ADB WDDSP however, LWUA prefers to pass on the foreign exchange risk to the water district.

182. Counterpart funds are provided from CKWD ICG funds and WD Equity.

3. Staffing and Organization

183. Under the existing structure, CKWD financial function is under the responsibility of the Senior Corporate Account Analyst under the Finance Unit. The Unit Head is duly supported by the Corporate Budget Analyst, Senior Accounting Processor and Accounting Processor staff. These positions are currently vacant and being proposed to be filled up by 2010. See Annex 1a for the CKWD Organization Chart. CKWD’s total workforce is composed of 54 employees, 18 are regular and 36 are job orders.

184. The Finance Unit handles transaction processing, bookkeeping, and financial records, and cost accounting. The Finance Unit is currently being filled up by qualified and experienced personnel, who will be responsible for undertaking project finance and accounting. Not all key positions are filled out and most of the staff are holding permanent positions. Please see Annex 1b – Job Description of Project Accounting Staff.

185. Training is usually provided as part of their career development plan and to inform the accounting staff about changes in government policy such as the New Government Accounting System.

4. Accounting Policies and Procedure

186. CKWD has an accounting system that allows proper recording of project financial transactions, including allocation of expenditures in accordance with respective components and sources of funds. Controls are in place concerning the preparation and approval of transactions, ensuring that all transactions are correctly made and adequately explained.

187. The CKWD recognizes the use of the Imprest Fund System, the Voucher and Check Disbursement Systems for payments, which generates the Voucher Register and the Monthly Check Disbursement Records, respectively. Inventories are valued using the First In- First Out Method of valuation. Property, plant and Equipment are valued at cost and depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Receivables are carried at net realizable value where in provision for bad debts is computed monthly using the aging of receivables method.

188. The CKWD adopts the Billing and Collection System prescribed by the Commercial Practices System (CPS) established by LWUA for all water districts. This Manual contains also the Meter Reading Cycle, the process flow charts, and samples forms basically needed by the WD in the documentation of its day to day activities.

189. Project implementation is being handled by a WDPMU organized specifically for the project. The PMU is composed of members from the Administrative, Finance, Commercial and Technical Division. The Project Management Unit or Committee basically coordinates and monitors project activities.

190. The chart of accounts is adequate to account for all activities of CKWD. CKWD follows the standard chart of accounts for government agencies as contained in the NGAS and adopts the prescribed coding system.

191. CKWD does have a file management system and important papers are kept on a permanent basis while others (such as vouchers) are kept for a period of 10 years as per government rule (Chapter 2. Section 26. PD 1445 - Auditing Code of the Philippines).

a. Segregation of Duties

192. Functional responsibilities are segregated as responsibilities for budget, collection, payment, recording, reporting, auditing and custodial responsibilities are assigned to separate groups of officers and staff.

b. Budgeting System

193. The CKWD budget is prepared by the Management Committee composed of Unit Heads and the IGM recommends the budget for approval to the Board of Directors.

194. The budget is prepared for all significant activities in sufficient detail for monitoring. It includes physical as well as financial targets for the year. A monthly variance analysis report is being prepared and submitted to the General Manager for proper notification. Supplemental budgets are requested for unexpected disbursements.

195. Project plans and budget of project activities are being developed based on valid assumptions by capable and knowledgeable staff.

c. Payments

196. Invoice-processing and payroll preparation procedures are adequate to provide check and balance of the transactions. Stamping of Invoices as “PAID” upon payment is still to be implemented.

Supplementary Appendix K

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

83

d. Policies Procedures

197. The basis of accounting is the accrual method consistent with the policies of the New Government Accounting System. The water district also adheres to Modified Commercial Practices System prepared by LWUA to conform with the NGAS.

198. The Manual of Operations which contains the policies and procedures that will guide the project activities will be developed during the loan implementation phase.

1. Cash and Bank

199. The Approving authorities for bank transactions are the Interim General Manager or the Customer Services Officer and Customer Services Assistant D or Customer Services Assistant A.

200. All receipts are deposited intact on a timely basis and at present, banks and cash balances are reconciled on a monthly basis. All unusual items for reconciliation are reviewed and approved by a responsible official. CKWD has instituted adequate controls and procedures for recording receipts and payment.

2. Safeguard over assets

201. The Administrative Services Officer is responsible for monitoring the CKWD fixed assets. An annual physical inventory of assets is performed and the results are reconciled with control accounts. Fixed assets (vehicles) are sufficiently covered by insurance.

3. Other office and Implementing entities

202. The water districts are entities that perform project implementation together with LWUA. Periodic reporting and reconciliation of accounts between LWUA and the water districts are being performed. Flow of information and monitoring of project activities are being carried out through officers and staff assigned by LWUA close coordination with WD management and staff.

4. Internal audit

203. At present, the WD has no Internal Audit Unit which shall provide check and control over the operations of the WD since the current volume of transaction is relatively small and manageable.

5. External Audit

204. Statutory audit is done by an external auditor appointed by the Commission on Audit. The Audit Reports are issued on or before the end of the second quarter of the succeeding year. This is performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. The projects are also subject to the audit of the Commission on Audit as part of their regular audit activities.

205. Among the major findings contained in the 2007 Annual Audit Report are as follows:

206. The Commission on Audit had expressed no opinion on the 2007 and 2006 Financial Statements due to non-availability of records and pertinent documents brought about by management problem encountered by the water district in 2006. The 2007 financial statements include only the four-month transaction period from August to December.

207. The failure on the part of the COA auditors to vouch for the existence and accuracy of the Property, Plant and Equipment and Material Inventory due to absence of physical inventory reports is one of the reasons for rendering the no opinion audit report.

208. In addition, COA stated in its report that the regularity and legality of the financial transactions entered into by the District are open to questions pending the determination by

Page 94: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix K

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

84

the Court of Law of the legitimacy of the Board of Directors who had given prior authorization.

6. Reporting and Monitoring

209. CKWD Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the Philippine Accounting Standards issued by the Accounting Standard Council (ASC). These Financial Statements are prepared monthly and are audited annually.

7. Information System

210. The Financial Management System is being done manually. This system is continuously being developed to produce the required financial reports and assures safeguarding of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.

Conclusion and Recommendations

211. CKWD generally follows sound financial management principles in its operations as indicated by the positive responses to the Financial Management Assessment Questionnaire.

212. The institutional problems within the CKWD in 2006 severely affected its ability to operate, notwithstanding the major findings contained in the 2007 and 2005 COA Audit Report, as mentioned above. These prompted LWUA to take-over the board and management of the water district to spare the WD from further deterioration. To date, the LWUA Interim Board and Management have restored order to the WD and have greatly contributed to the improved financial well being of the CKWD. The Interim Board and Management are also keen in helping the water district in rectifying all the previous audit findings and abide by the COA audit recommendations.

213. At present, CKWD is constructing its new administration building and is conducting revenue generating initiatives such as such on time payment incentives, metering program, leak repairs, detection of / campaign against illegal connection. The interim management is also in the process of reorganizing the water district and come up with a new organizational structure and fill up the needed vacant positions.

214. The Interim Board and Management should build the level of preparedness of the CKWD in order to properly turn-over the operations in the future. The IGM should be able to find an able and competent replacement for his position. The LWUA Interim Board and Management is enjoined to continuously find ways of improving the water supply capability of the water district as well as identify areas for reform in order to answer the present needs and demands of the water district’s operations, and be more adept to the needs of the consumers and the community on the whole.

215. In addition, the Interim Management should start the computerization of its billing and collection system, modernize its meter reading procedures and consider utilizing the services of banks or nearest payment centers to facilitate collection of water bills.

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

1. MACROECONOMIC AND SECTORAL CONTEXT 1. Before the global economic slowdown hit the country in 2008, the Philippine economy has been growing at rates averaging 5.7%. From 5% in 2005, GDP growth increased to 5.4% in 2006 and further accelerated to its highest rate of 7.2% in 2007. However, in 2008, largely as a result of the global economic downturn, the economy grew at a much slower pace of only 4.6%. The pace of growth further decelerated up until about the middle of 2009 and seemed to have picked up some steam during the second half. By the end of 2009, economic growth is projected to reach 1.6% and in 2010, it is expected to gradually accelerate to 3.3%.2 Inflation is currently at its lowest level and is expected to average 4% in 2009 and 4.5% in 2010. 2. Despite the consistent, positive growth of the domestic economy during the past years, however, poverty incidence in the country still remains high. In 2006, the number of families falling below the poverty line was estimated at 26.9%3. While no recent poverty estimates have yet been released for both national and regional levels showing the possible impact on poverty level of the current economic downturn, it is generally believed that the number of poor has risen. As an indicator, the latest Social Weather Survey undertaken by the Social Weather Station (SWS) indicates that self-rated poverty during the fourth quarter of 2008 was up to 52%, from the average of 50% in 2007.4 3. In the water supply sector, the situation across the country and in the Project areas, needs further improvements. Available statistics show that 80% of the country’s current population have access to safe water supply but only 67% are connected to piped network.5 Still a large proportion of the population depends on non-piped sources such as shallow wells and deep wells, most of which are unprotected, and on more unsafe sources like rivers. 4. The Philippine Government has set a target of achieving population service coverage for safe drinking water of 92%-96% by 2010.6 Under the Millennium Development Goals, the target coverage is 86.8%. 2. ECONOMIC RATIONALE OF THE PROJECT 5. The proposed investments in water supply are designed to increase piped water service coverage in the Project areas. Providing safe water is not only one of the Government’s important economic and social objectives but also aims to address the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) of: (i) eradicating extreme poverty and hunger (Goal 1), reducing child mortality (Goal 4), (iii) combating major diseases (Goal 6), and (v) improving population access to improved water supply and sanitation services (Goal 7). 6. The participating water districts will partly finance but fully implement, operate and manage the Project investments as they do for the existing water supply systems. Direct intervention by Government in the provision of this basic urban service stems from the lack of participation of other sectors, particularly private investors, in the sector’s development. With a growing population, the lack of investments in capacity expansion and proper maintenance of facilities means that an increasing number of the population, especially the poor, will

continue to be deprived of this essential service which could have long-term effects on their health and well-being. 7. Direct involvement of the Government in this Project therefore addresses this market failure in the provision of water supply services. In doing so, the Government will be exercising two of its basic functions, namely: (i) allocating resources for the provision of basic needs, and (ii) distributing resources to effect equity where market and private decisions (or lack of it) have not resulted in efficient allocation and service provision especially to the poor. 3. METHODOLOGY FOR ECONOMIC ANALYSIS 8. The economic analysis of the water supply investments was undertaken in accordance with the principles and procedures set out in the ADB Handbook for the Economic Analysis of Water Supply Projects (1999) and related guidelines7 as well as LWUA’s Project Operations Manual (2008). The analysis was undertaken over a 25-year period although most investments have useful economic life that extends beyond this time horizon. Costs and benefits were quantified at constant September 2009 prices and as increments to a situation “without project”. 9. The basic approach to the analysis was to determine the economic costs and benefits for each subproject over its entire life. Using domestic price numeraire, the financial costs of investments in infrastructure and in operation and maintenance (O&M) were converted to economic costs, after deducting taxes and duties, by shadow pricing their tradable and non-tradable components, including labor, using the following assumptions prescribed by NEDA-ICC8 in evaluating Philippine projects: (i) shadow exchange rate factor of 1.2, (ii) shadow wage rate factor for unskilled labor of 0.6, and (iii) shadow price factor for other non-tradables of 1.0. Economic benefits were valued using the data and assumptions presented in the following section. 10. The economic feasibility of the subprojects was determined by computing their economic internal rate of return (EIRR) and comparing the results with the assumed economic opportunity cost of capital (EOCC) of 15%9. An EIRR that exceeds EOCC indicates that the subproject is economically feasible. The robustness of the subproject’s EIRR was tested for changes in such key variables as capital costs, O&M costs, resource cost savings, value of incremental water and other benefits through sensitivity analysis. Sustainability of the investments was analyzed in terms of the cost of water production against the average tariffs. Cost recovery was computed for O&M costs, capital cost and the full economic costs that combine capital and O&M. A distributional and poverty impact analysis was also undertaken to determine how much of the net economic benefits resulting from the investments will directly benefit the poor in each area. 4. ECONOMIC VIABILITY OF THE PROJECT 4.1 Economic Benefits 11. The following economic benefits were considered in evaluating the economic viability of the proposed water supply investments: (i) resource cost savings on non-incremental water in terms of avoided costs of producing, collecting, treating and storing non-piped water to be replaced by water produced by the Project; (ii) economic value of incremental water due to increased supply; (iii) economic value of water that would have been lost due to non-

technical reasons; (iv) value of time saved for not having to collect water from existing non-piped sources, (v) medical cost savings due to reduced morbidity rates for diarrhea, and (vi) avoided loss of income because of reduced incidence of waterborne diseases. 12. Resource cost savings on non-incremental water were computed by multiplying the volume of water to be consumed by those who will connect to the improved water supply systems, by the economic value of non-piped water. The current economic value of non-piped was computed based on the estimated costs of producing water from wells, fetching water from the source, treating and storing them. The basic data used to arrive at this value were gathered through the household surveys conducted in each Project area. 13. The amount of incremental water supply was computed based on the number of connections, the average per capita consumption, and the average household size. Service connections include communal standpipes in poor urban communities as proposed for Quezon Metro. The Project assumed that a single standpipe will serve a total of 20 households. The economic value of incremental piped water supply was determined by multiplying the total additional volume consumed by the economic value of water, or the willingness to pay (WTP) indicated in the surveys. 14. The value of non-technical water losses saved was computed by multiplying the amount of water that would have been lost due to non-technical reasons and the average of the supply price and WTP. 15. Avoided income loss benefit represents the economic value of time saved from not collecting water from wells and other sources by household members (usually adults) as a result of having direct connections to the piped water system. This benefit was computed by multiplying the average time spent in collecting water by the average daily economic wage rate which in turn was computed by applying the social wage rate factor (SWRF) to the prevailing financial minimum wage rate. 16. Avoided costs of medication was determined considering the incidence of diarrhea10 in the Project areas, the cost of medication, the average number of days that a patient is sick, and the expected reduction in morbidity rate due to the use of safe drinking water provided by the Project. Data used in the computations were based on health records of the DOH and the results of the socioeconomic surveys. 17. Avoided income loss/productivity savings were computed based on (i) the percentage of working adults who get sick of diarrhea, and (ii) the average daily economic wage rate in the project areas. Reduction in morbidity rates was based on previous health studies (including data from the World Health Organization (WHO)), and consultations with medical doctors. 18. The parameters used in estimating the above economic benefits of water supply are presented in Annex 1. 19. The WTP data, as gathered through the socioeconomic surveys, are also shown in Annex. 4.2 EIRR and Sensitivity Tests 20. The EIRR for the subprojects are summarized in Table 1 while details of the computations are shown in Annexes 2-6 .

10 The analysis was limited to the impact of diarrhea, among various types of waterborne diseases, for which data are available and deemed to be more accurate.

21. The proposed investments for Quezon Metro, Leyte Metro and Koronadal City are economically viable, with EIRR exceeding the assumed EOCC of 15%. The investments remain viable even with assumed 10% increases in capital investments or O&M costs, or reductions in benefits. The EIRR for Legazpi City is slightly below the cut-off rate (14%) but increases to 15.4% with a 10% reduction in capital costs or O&M. The investments become economically viable under both conditions. In the case of Metro La Union, the EIRR for the proposed investments is 11.8% and remains below the cut-off rate even with a 10% reduction in either capital or O&M costs, or the same-rate increase in resource cost savings. 22. Sensitivity tests show that the EIRR for all subprojects are most sensitive to changes in capital costs followed by changes in O&M (Legazpi City, Metro Quezon) and resource cost savings (Metro Quezon, Koronadal City). Changes in medical cost savings have important impact on economic viability in the case of Leyte Metro.

4.3 Project Sustainability 23. Sustainability of the investments is indicated by comparing the computed average tariff with the average incremental economic cost (AIEC) of water as well as the expected levels of cost recovery. Data on these indicators are presented in Table 2 . The AIEC, based on full economic cost that includes capital investments and O&M, ranges from Php10.8/m3

(Quezon Metro) to a high of Php27/m3 (Leyte Metro). For Koronadal City, Legazpi City and Metro La Union, the marginal economic costs of producing water based on the proposed investments are Php12.9/m3, Php14.2/m3, and Php17.1/m3 respectively.

24. Except for Metro Leyte, the average tariffs for the four other WDs are higher than their respective AIECs, suggesting that no economic subsidy will be required. The average tariff for Koronadal City is Php13.6/m3 as compared to an AIEC of Php12.9/m3 while Metro Quezon’s tariff of Php11.3/m3 is slightly higher than its AIEC of Php10.8/m3. For Legazpi City and Metro La Union, the differences between the tariff and AIEC are Php9.6/m3 and Php9.9/m3, respectively. With tariff of only Php20/m3 against an AIEC of Php27/m3, Metro Leyte water will require an economic subsidy of about Php7 for each cubic meter consumed. 25. Again, except for Leyte Metro, the tariff revenue for all four WDs will be able to fully recover all capital investments, O&M costs, or both. For Leyte Metro, tariff revenue will fully recover only the O&M costs but just 77% of the capital costs and 74% of the full economic costs.

4.4 Distributional Analysis and Poverty Impact 26. Distributional analysis and poverty impact assessment was prepared for each subproject. Net economic benefits were computed for each subproject as a difference between the economic benefits and financial benefits and then distributed to major stakeholders (i.e., government, water consumers, labor, and the water districts). 27. The major beneficiaries of the subprojects are the direct consumers. The labor sector will benefit from the investments through its involvement in the various rehabilitation and construction works to be done as well as in the eventual operation of the facilities. The economy, on the other hand, will lose the equivalent of the difference of the current nominal exchange rate and shadow exchange rate because of the distortion in the exchange rates. 28. The poverty impact ratios (PIRs) presented in Table 3 indicate that 25% to 38% of the net economic benefits will go to the poor.

5. PROJECT BENEFICIARIES 29. At the end of the 25-year period assumed for the analysis, an estimated 52,115 households in all the five pilot WD areas shall have directly connected to the improved water supply systems and 320 additional households in poor communities in Quezon Metro shall have been supplied with treated water through the 16 public faucets provided by the Project. In addition, 4,293 institutional and commercial establishments shall have direct connections to the piped water supply network. Altogether, the investments will directly benefit a total of approximately 317,732 local area residents. 30. Service coverage will also increase from the current low level of 29% to a peak of 54% in Metro La Union WD, and from 80% to 94% in Metro Quezon (Table 4 ). As a result of the investments, Koronadal City WD will increase its service coverage from 44% to 77%. For Legazpi City WD and Leyte Metro WD, their respective coverages will be 58% and 36% which, taken as a proportion of their total area population, are relatively low compared to the current levels. The proposed investments for these two areas are not sufficient to cope with the projected growth in population during the period.

A. Objective

1. Institutional strengthening (IS) and capacity building (CB) are critical activities to support the sustainability of the project outcomes. It is proposed that IS and CB activities should be focused on the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA), the water districts (WD), local government units (LGU), non-government organizations (NGO) and communities.

B. Framework for Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building

2. The Institutional and Financial Assessment of LWUA Report (Volume 2) identified significant issues and recommendations in regard to emerging changes in the governance framework for LWUA:

o LWUA should pursue an increase in its capitalization.

o LWUA should reinforce its role as a specialized lending institution and establish a system of maintaining a revolving fund from loan principal collections and limit the utilization of such funds only for loan assistance to water districts and debt servicing requirements.

o LWUA should consult with NWRB and harmonize its tariff review and other economic regulatory processes with it.

o LWUA should take steps to clarify with DOF and even with the Office of the President on the problems that it is or will encounter if its implementation policies will strictly be in accord with Executive Order (EO) 279. The consultation process should necessarily involve the LWUA Board.

o LWUA should adopt a stronger business planning approach and strive to be proactive as a capital manager rather than reactive. This primarily means moving from the current environment where LWUA effectively rations available capital to the WD works requirements to one where forward requirements are planned and then managed by sourcing the required capital as a true merchant bank.

3. Other recommendations were pertinent to management information system (MIS) development and training:

o LWUA should take the proper steps to have the application systems covered by its Information Systems Strategic Plan (ISSP) fully operational and to improve

Page 156: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

2 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

“front end” access via implementing a web portal. It should budget what it still needs for this endeavor.

o LWUA should continue to take steps to improve its capability in engineering technology, sanitation, regulatory practices and strengthening of advisory services.

4. The changes are arising out of implementation of EO 279 at LWUA and what is seen as problems that it is already encountering and will encounter if LWUA’s ongoing development is to be in accord with EO 279. These issues are still being addressed through interaction between the LWUA board and the appropriate central government agencies

5. To address the governance issues as well as the development of LWUA and the WDs (particularly in areas of MIS and training) it is proposed that a Technical Assistance consultancy be provided as implementation support to the main project. Draft Terms of Reference for the TA are presented in Supplementary Appendix R.

6. The IS assistance will be undertaken in two phases, where the first phase focuses on reviewing current governance structures and their underlying legislation for both LWUA and the WDs, developing planning and performance management frameworks for them into the Corporate Plan for LWUA, its corresponding Business Plan as well as a generic Business Plan for the WDs. A particular strategic focus will be on sanitation services, generally through septage management.

7. In order to provide a robust tool for later strategy and policy formulation, monitoring and evaluation, Phase 1 will also include the development of a comprehensive business planning model for LWUA.

8. The second phase of IS will be to assist (to the extent of the available budget) in execution of the LWUA Corporate Plan and to implement the generic business plan for the pilot WDs. Phase 2 will also address training.

C. Institutional Strengthening

1. Phase 1

9. Phase 1 of the IS TA is expected to run for one year. It should review the Institutional and Financial Assessment of LWUA Report (Volume 2) and update it in relation to the organizational development which has been undertaken in relation to implementing EO 279. It should also review the financial impact of the recommendations of the assessment (such as organizational changes, increases in capitalization and changes to the lending mandate for LWUA).

10. Using the LWUA Financial Assessment as a basis and considering data gathered on the project pilot WDs, in relation to affordability credit worthiness, financial viability etc., pilot tariff analyses should be undertaken for the WDs and consider tariff options, their relevant features, pros and cons and make proposals in relation to tariff reform for the WDs. A corporate mission and a charter will be agreed and documented with LWUA management and the Department of Health (DOH). The charter will allow corporate objectives to be agreed in areas such as cost reduction, profitability and corporate performance. The charter will also clearly confirm LWUA’s mandate in terms of its varying roles.

11. A Corporate Plan can then be prepared by LWUA management and the TA Consultant. The plan will address objectives identified in the charter and will identify intermediate (e.g. annual ) goals, the success factors which impact on achievement such as

Page 157: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

3 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

performance of specific departments and personnel, and any recognized constraints on performance.

12. The Plan will document agreed strategies to be followed in areas relevant to the plan including:

� financial management; � regulatory monitoring and reporting; � sanitation development; � asset management; � operations and maintenance management and control; � MIS Development � environmental management; � Human resource development and training.

13. The Corporate Plan will be submitted to the LWUA Board of Trustees for approval after discussion with central government agencies. The concordance of the central agencies must be clearly documented.

14. In respect to the WDs, it is desirable to encourage a stronger business planning focus in their management so that it reinforces the relationship with LWUA in a financial context (i.e. the client/banker dimension) and in a sustainable service context (to support the strategic social goals of LWUA).

15. In Phase 1 the TA will develop a model/ pro forma business plan which can be applied to the WDs on an individual basis. It will be developed to be synergistic with the LWUA Corporate and Business Plans and with LWUA’s strategic reporting obligations. It should also have particular priority given to long term financial viability of the WD, improving credit worthiness and financial power and funding and executing sanitation services.

16. The LWUA corporate plan and business plan, the proforma WD business plan and the preliminary training needs assessment conducted during project preparation will used as a base for a comprehensive TNA and development of a comprehensive training program for LWUA and the WDs.

17. Phase 1 will also develop a financial business planning model of LWUA and WD capital and operational environment, with the following primary objectives:

(i) to inform stakeholders of the status of the accomplishment of LWUA’s mandate as a specialized lender, particularly to smaller, less creditworthy WDs, as well as waterless municipalities attached to WDs;

(ii) to provide LWUA, government financing institutions, donor agencies, and the private sector a tool for identifying viable technical, financial, and institutional interventions to improve the delivery and quality of WD products and services;

(iii) to determine WDs’ demand for financing, and the extent to which LWUA could respond to this demand given the total programmed investment; and

(iv) to gauge LWUA’s financial performance, particularly its profitability, liquidity, and ability to service debts, in the medium and long terms.

18. The model development will build on modeling undertaken during this PPTA, and consist of three invariably linked components; these are:

(i) WD Investment Model which will comprise 5-year investment plans of each WD (in accordance with the business plan pro forma prescribed in Para. 15) and the consequent indications of the need for LWUA financing.

Page 158: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

4 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

(ii) LWUA Investment Model which consolidates the WD investment plans and indicates the impact of capital sourcing strategies for the investment program impact sector service coverage and the levels of service provided.

(iii) LWUA Financial Model, which shows the impact of the investment program on the financial performance of LWUA. The outputs of the WD Investment Model are consolidated into the LWUA Investment Model, results of which provide inputs to the Financial Model.

19. The model development will also include:

• an interface between the WD Investment Model and WD Business Plans developed remotely;

• a user interface to allow planning parameters/ variables to be changed for scenario analysis;

• user specified graphical and other outputs.

20. The Business Planning Model is further described in Volume 2, Appendix 13.

21. Phase 2 Planning. Planning for Phase 2 of the IS should be undertaken during Phase 1. The planning should identify and document:

• The strategies agreed to in the corporate plan for LWUA as they relate to project resources including consulting staff and necessary procurement.

� Mobilisation plans for consulting staff.

� Cost Estimates.

� Disbursements program.

� Proposals for counterpart contributions (in kind and otherwise).

22. Phase 2 should be planned to run for up to three years. The Phase 2 plan must be reviewed and approved by LWUA and WD management before commencement.

23. To maintain project momentum it is suggested that a Bridging Activities Plan be developed as a supplement to the Phase 2 plan and which define activities to be undertaken while waiting for agreement on commencement of Phase 2.

24. The Bridging Activities should generally include continuation of the training program (to the extent that funding and training resources are available) and development of a kit for community outreach in regard to sanitation, it can also include para-training activities such as job swaps and secondments.

25. The PIP and the BAP will be submitted to the PMU and the Coordinating Committee for approval prior to commencement.

2. Phase 2

26. Specific outputs/ deliverables in relation to Phase 2 will be:

� Preparation of a Community Information Kit in respect to sanitation services to be provided by the water districts.

� A model Environmental Management System for the Water Districts which will be based upon the ISO 14000 framework.

Page 159: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

5 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

It is recognised that the initial EMS will be relatively simple to allow immediate effective implementation across the range of WDs; however, it should clearly address sanitation (septage management) responsibility and in accordance with ISO14000, a specification and implementation plan for continual improvement of the EMS over a five year time frame will also be formulated.

• A model Trade Waste policy which can be implemented by the water districts to protect their septage management assets as well as reducing the cost and effectiveness of desludging. The trade waste policy should be based on source collection (i.e. non discharge) of greases, heavy metals and other non domestic strength wastes.

• An MIS Strategy generally for LWUA and the WDs and a corresponding software development and systems procurement. The strategy should address:

� The Strategic Drivers for MIS Development within the LWUA//WD framework. � Strategic Vision for MIS in the framework. � Assessment of current and planned information systems and technology

architectures and economic evaluation assumptions and analyses. � Recommended Strategy. � User specifications for key systems/ applications (e.g. Customer Care, Billing

and Revenue Collection System) which can be developed and apply at low cost in the WDs to improve financial performance and consequent credit worthiness.

� Documentation for core procurement of servers, etc., for the pilot WDs.

♦ Consolidation of the business plan model developed in Phase 1 as a major management tool for LWUA.

D. Capacity Building Program

1. Training Needs Assessment

27. A training needs assessment was made through:

1. Preparation of questionnaires for LWUA and WD staff. 2. Analysis of responses. 3. Discussions with LWUA and WD management.

28. Two questionnaires were prepared, one for technical staff and one for financial staff (see Attachment ). The questionnaires were distributed to a sample of 70 personnel in LWUA and the WDs, and 42 responses were received.

29. LWUA’s technical capability had been previously assessed as a major strength in an IBRD-financed survey of stakeholders (2008). However the training needs analysis indicates that there are still many areas of need both in terms of direct knowledge and in practical experience. WD officials are similarly noting there are new developments or technologies that the WDs are already employing but which the LWUA engineers are not familiar with. The recent global financial issues are also indicating that financial staff have significant learning needs in financial management, particularly in relation to financial modeling, client risk analysis and prudential bank management practices. These needs are emphasized in the potential effects of EO 279 where there would be greater presence of less credit worthy WDs in the LWUA loan portfolio and further if LWUA progresses to direct partial or full ownership of a merchant bank.

30. The general focuses for capacity building through training which were identified through the needs assessment are:

Page 160: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

6 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

o Technology � General technological development such as spatial databases (GIS) and

communications (e.g. SCADA using cell phone technologies). � Engineering: new construction techniques and systems (e.g. GPS based survey

data collection. � Water Supply and Sanitation: water treatment, septage treatment.

o Management � Institutional: e.g. Out sourcing, contract management. � Customer/ Client communication. � Corporate and Strategic Planning. � Project Control and Management.

o Financial � Banking Principles � Project Evaluation including Financial Modelling � Financial Control

2. Capacity Building Interventions

a. Formal Classroom (Face to Face)

31. Formal classroom-based training is available and facilitated by LWUA in the Balara complex. This type of training provides a quiet location away from the frequent distractions and interruptions of the workplace. Usually the training is delivered to small groups (of, say, up to 17 persons). It is useful for training in topics involving theories and concepts, for it provides opportunity for discussion and practice in a “risk-free” environment.

32. This training needs to be carried out within a clear framework in which trainee selection, training content and training objectives are clearly described. Of particular interest are the “Specific Objectives” which describe in behavioral terms what a trainee will be able to do by the end of the training, which can be observed directly. These are important for a variety of reasons:

• For the trainer, they set his/her targets in measurable form. • For the trainee’s manager, they define clearly what training is being offered. • For the trainee, they give him/her a means of measuring his/her progress.

33. However, other interventions that should be considered, particularly given the participation of WD employees who will have to be accommodated, are: on-the-job training, out-sourced training, and study tours.

b. On-the-job Training

34. This is training conducted at the employee’s workplace, and has historically been undertaken on a one-to-one basis or in very small groups in a master/student environment.

35. It is practical, “hands on” training and is especially useful for transferring manual skills such as equipment operation and maintenance. This form of training is therefore often employed by equipment suppliers.

36. An alternative form of on the job training is via computer based instruction/ self-paced instruction (CBI/SPI). This was indicated by many of the respondents to the TNA as a preferred form of delivery.

37. The advantage of CDI/SPI in the LWUA/WD environment is that it allows the

Page 161: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

7 Supplementary Appendix P

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

participant to study at a pace that doesn’t distract from work obligations or carry complications resulting from the remoteness of the WDs.

38. The disadvantage is that, in order to make CBI/SPI effective, it must be extremely well prepared and have a heuristic systems base so as to be responsive to student requirements. Progress must also be monitored by supervisors to ensure effectiveness. These disadvantages must be addressed by course designers and generally mean that there is significant overhead experienced.

c. Out-sourced Training

39. This is similar to in-house, off-the-job training but is undertaken by third parties, usually in their own training facilities. This form is particularly useful when training of long-duration is contemplated, especially if the number of trainees is quite small. Such training is suitable where it is likely to be difficult to organize and implement with project resources (it may require special training equipment etc.) and it is usually more practicable for trainees to follow established courses offered by external institutions (for example, in accounting or electrician skills). One disadvantage is that the employer or project may have less control over the content of the training, unless the outside provider will mount a course specially tailored to project needs.

d. Study Tours

40. Study tours can be useful elements of a capacity building program as they provide a range of learning opportunities through observation, investigation and discussion. They are also valuable for team building in the project context and thus should be programmed early in the project so that maximum value is realized of the association.

41. Study tours are expensive and need to be well-planned and organized and have clear focus and objectives. There must be strict and transparent selection criteria:

• Learning objectives for every participant should be prepared in advance. • The recipient organisation must be aware of the learning objectives. • On return from the tour, participants should make a presentation to colleagues,

including feedback on their learning objectives.

42. Study tours can also result in longer-term relationships being established between participating organizations, which can bring additional future benefits such as exchange of information and assistance.

43. As information on training needs becomes more complete, training programs are prepared based on these various types of training. For each training event the duration of training, number of trainees, location, trainer and costs are identified.

e. Training Content

44. Final design of the training and other capacity building content will be undertaken under the proposed IS/CB TA. Training needs that have been identified at the current time include the following:

• Organizational development and planning.

• Financial management and Information systems (FMIS) and processes.

• Human resources development strategy and related training.

• Facility operations and maintenance of septage management systems (including contracting out).

• Facility planning and asset management.

• Development of an integrated MIS, including GIS.

• Public relations and improved public awareness.

• Environmental monitoring management and resolving environmental problems particularly in the context of sanitation.

• Outsourcing contract management, asset procurement and tendering.

45. Some of the training needs will be met through provisions in contracts with equipment suppliers, others will be met through staff working alongside and participating in training provided by the Design and Construction supervision consultants. However, the consultant will need to ensure a comprehensive program of training is prepared and delivered in a coordinated fashion. The consultant will therefore be expected to liaise with the other consultants and relevant suppliers to ensure this is achieved.

A. Introduction

1. The terms of reference (TOR) for the PPTA state in Clause 5 (xxiv): “Prepare an effective project performance monitoring system that includes monitoring of the Project’s performance, benefits and impact on poverty reduction. Identify the training needed to strengthen capacity for project performance monitoring.”

2. The Water District Development Sector Project (WDDSP) is an investment project planned for the urban water supply sector in the Republic of the Philippines. It does not, however, include the Manila/ National Capital Region. The scope of the initial phase of the sector project addresses development of water supply and sanitation services for a short-list of five pilot water districts (WD), and a long-list of WDs identified for implementation under subsequent phases. The participating WDs have been selected on the basis of relevant criteria and indicators such as (a) demand for improved water supply and sanitation, (b) fiscal capacity, financial management, commitment to reform, and governance, (c) focus on serving low-income communities, (d) well-defined investment needs, and (e) project preparedness. Subproject appraisal reports (SPAR) have been prepared for the five pilot WDs during the PPTA.

3. The expected outputs are: (i) improved financial and operational performance from the target water districts, and (ii) increased water supply continuity and coverage, and improved quality.

4. The Project Performance Monitoring System (PPMS) allows the Project to determine the effectiveness and cost of various implementation approaches and identify those with the greatest impact and use for improving water services in participating WDs. The PPMS will provide data, information and reports for management use to all involved stakeholders at national (LWUA), city (LGU) and water district levels. The Project will be implemented with the co-operation from government agencies involved.

5. The design and monitoring framework of the Project contains performance indicators for measuring progress towards the intended outputs, outcomes and impacts. During Year 1 of the Project, the Project Management Unit (PMU) which will operate within the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA), will implement the system with the assistance of Project Management Consultants (PMC) for monitoring project performance in each of the participating water districts. The PMC will operate the system.

6. The PPMS will monitor WDDSP outputs, outcomes and impacts. The Project will consist of two main components:

1. Water supply development and improvement of performance. 2. Capacity building and project implementation support.

7. The Project will be implemented in two batches of WDs. The first batch consists of the five pilot WDs studied during the PPTA. Subsequent batches will be dependent on the availability of residual funds from the ADB loan budget, and will be drawn from a long-list of priority WDs which already have feasibility studies completed under World Bank and KfW programs.

8. Implementation of the Project is expected to occur over six years, from 2011 to 2016.

9. The scope of the water supply component will include the following activities:

� preparation/ implementation of simple contracts for system improvement (e.g. bulk and customer meter replacement, pressure management infrastructure, GIS, modelling software, leak detection equipment, mains replacement);

Page 169: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix Q

TA No. 7122-PHI: Water District Development Sector Project PPTA – Final Report – Vol. 11

2

� groundwater source confirmation (test drilling), where needed; � detailed engineering design (DED), preparation of bid documents; � procurement of contractors, contract awards; � rehabilitation and new construction/installation works.

10. The scope of the capacity building program will include institutional strengthening, implementation support, training, and human resources development activities.

B. Project Objectives and Scope

11. The Project will be located in LWUA, five pilot water districts, and four additional water districts from the long-list. Initially the Project will be located in the following six areas:

a. Metro Manila in respect to activities at LWUA. b. Metro La Union Water District, La Union Province, Luzon. c. Quezon Metro Water District, Quezon Province, Luzon. d. Legazpi City Water District, Albay Province, Luzon. e. Leyte Metro Water District, Leyte Province, Visayas. f. City of Koronadal Water District, South Cotobato Province, Mindanao.

12. Each water district forms a subproject of the overall Project, and the PPTA has prepared a subproject appraisal report (SPAR) for each of the pilot WDs in accordance with ADB and LWUA criteria.

C. Stakeholders

13. In implementing the PPMS concerned stakeholders at three levels will be addressed and referenced; these are:

a. National Level ♦ DOH (Department of Health) ♦ LWUA (Local Water Utilities Administration) ♦ DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources) ♦ NRWB (National Water Resources Board)

b. Pilot Water Districts • Metro La Union Water District. • Quezon Metro Water District. • Legazpi City Water District. • Leyte Metro Water District. • City of Koronadal Water District.

c. Additional Water Districts • Cabuyao (Laguna, Luzon) • Laguna (Laguna, Luzon) • Camarines Norte (Camarines Norte, Luzon) • Sorsogon (Sorsogon, Luzon).

d. City/LGU level • San Fernando City; Bacnotan, San Gabriel, San Juan and Bauang

municipalities - La Union Province, Luzon. • Lucena City; Tayabas and Pagbilao municipalities - Quezon Province, Luzon. • Legazpi City - Albay Province, Luzon. • Tacloban City; Dagami, Santa Fe, Tanauan, Tolosa, Tabon-tabon, Palo and

Pastrana municipalities; - Leyte Province, Visayas. • City of Koronadal - South Cotobato Province, Mindanao.

e. NGOs

f. CBOs

D. PPMS Activities undertaken by the PPTA

14. The PPTA team carried out the following activities: (i) identification of key stakeholders; (ii) meetings and workshops during SPAR preparation in the pilot WDs, during which some issues related to the PPMS were discussed; (iii) focus group discussions; (iv) socio-economic surveys of households; (v) water supply and sanitation11 technical assessments; and (vi) disclosure consultations on the draft resettlement framework and initial environmental examinations.

E. PPMS Approach

15. The conceptual approach is to design a system that is integrated, participative and as easy as possible to implement. Ideally, the suggested methodology will be tested in a pilot area, and adjustments will then be made prior to the application of the system throughout the project area. This will fit the implementation schedule for the Project, which foresees a phased approach.

16. The PPMS will incorporate: (i) stakeholder consultation; (ii) a bottom-up, community-driven participatory approach; (iii) self-assessment techniques at the WD level, which will be used as a complement to secondary data sources and formal surveys to stimulate from the outset a sense of process ownership among the identified WDs; (iv) the organization structure of the Project; (v) the availability, quality and timeliness of secondary data; (vi) the need to establish indicators, data sources, data processing and report production responsibilities for each of the two components in the Project; (vii) the establishment of linkages between inputs and outputs for each of the subprojects component and the Project as a whole; (viii) appropriate methodology for data collection, processing, analysis and reporting (information dissemination) at national (LWUA), WD and community levels; (ix) PPMS resource requirements (staff, equipment, costs); and (x) simplicity.

17. At each level, consideration will need to be given to what level of managerial, technical and PPMS support will be required to provide sufficient backing to the project teams that will work directly with water districts, government agencies and participating communities (and their respective committees) to develop improved water supply and sanitation facilities. The EA’s existing institutional capacity to implement PPMS, including available MIS to track selected indicators, will be reviewed.

F. PPMS Implementation

1. Timeframe

18. The PPMS will operate throughout the life of the Project, until the impact evaluation stage, which is up to 10 years after the start of the Project.

11 The sanitation component was subsequently dropped from the project scope due to changed grant funding priorities.

2. Objectives

19. The PPMS defines indicators and reporting systems to enable the Government, ADB, and all stakeholders to evaluate the progress and impact of each subproject component, and the Project as a whole, of the project interventions. Monitoring the impact of improved access to drinking water facilities in will be the main focus of the PPMS system.

3. Components

20. The Project will be monitored under its two components—(i) Water supply development and improvement of performance, and (ii) Capacity building and project implementation support—and within the specific areas of focus (LWUA and the WDs).

4. Design and Monitoring Framework

21. The Design and Monitoring Framework (Project Logical Framework) is shown in RRP Appendix 1. The system will be designed to monitor and evaluate the project objectives and the output of each of the main activities of the three components.

5. Key Performance Targets and Indicators

22. Formats of tables showing key performance indicators (PI) for LWUA and the pilot water districts are shown in the Attachment .

6. Data Sources, Analysis, Reporting

23. There are three main stages in the PPMS: (i) establishing the benchmark status of institutions, infrastructure and beneficiaries; (ii) periodic monitoring to show the progress of implementation, and the effectiveness, impact and sustainability of interventions; and (iii) end-of-project surveys to assess the final impact and sustainability of the Project.

a. Benchmark Stage Status of Government Agencies

24. The status of relevant government agencies at national and relevant provincial level and in the participating water districts will be established in terms of: (i) resources (manpower, skills, finance, equipment and facilities); (ii) MIS; and (iii) management attitudes. The agencies and water districts will collect and analyze the data themselves, assisted by M&E staff and experts appointed for the Project. Report production will be undertaken by the water districts and LWUA assisted by the consultants, raising issues, drawing conclusions and verifying interventions, indicators and data sources to be used for monitoring.

Benchmark Survey

25. It is anticipated that a benchmark survey will be undertaken in the early stages of the Project to assess performance of the water (and where appropriate) sanitation systems in the pilot subproject areas. On the basis of the survey outcomes the performance indicator targets and potentially the PIs themselves to be applied within the PPMS will be reviewed and recalibrated.

b. Implementation Stage 26. This is the most important aspect of project impact and sustainability monitoring during implementation. The M&E team at national level (in conjunction with government

5

agencies and other M&E staff) will prepare report formats to be completed by water districts, assisted by facilitators and, in the case of sanitation and hygiene interventions, by staff at barangay level for each monthly of implementation.

27. Each data/text sheet will be one half to one page long and completed in association with monthly data sheets.

28. During implementation the M&E staff at all levels will discuss requirements for special studies to be carried out by consultants on specific topics. These will include water quality and improved water supply and sanitation and consequent health impact studies.

29. The work flow of the M&E System is shown in Figure 1 .

community level, with a focus on ensuring participatory monitoring; (iii) aggregation and analysis of M&E data; (iv) preparation of reports to show the progress of the subprojects by component (financial, physical, impact and sustainability); (v) raising issues and suggesting adjustments to design and implementation; (vi) dissemination of reports; (vii) planning a schedule of meetings of stakeholders at local level to discuss progress and issues; (viii) preparing information for bi-annual project review missions and reviewing evaluation reports; (ix) periodic internal evaluations; and (x) ensuring that the system meets the M&E requirements of the government and ADB.

34. Other MIS/M&E staff at WD level will include a financial management expert who will establish and maintain the necessary financial management/accounting systems and procedures, and design the forms and reports that will record, classify, summarize and report on project financial transactions.

b. Water District Level

35. At least one of the subproject staff will act as facilitator in implementing the PPMS in respect to the financial and physical progress and impact and sustainability of the subprojects. The facilitator will take primary responsibility for all data collection and analysis related to the status of project activities at WD level. In particular, the facilitator will ensure that data collection, processing and report production at WD and community level meets quality requirements and timelines and that data and reports from the WD are transmitted to LWUA. Facilitators will pay particular attention to beneficiary self-assessment monitoring, report production, raising of issues, and the resolution of problems at WD level. Care will be taken to publicize results and ensure complete transparency. He/she will liaise with community organizations, government personnel and the other facilitators in the design, implementation and use of the PPMS. Efforts will be made to ensure that women, children and marginalized groups are included in the system

I. INTRODUCTION

1. The consulting services will support the Project and build institutional capacity in LWUA, the project management unit (PMU), water districts (WD), local government units, communities and non-governmental organizations (NGO).

2. The proposed consulting services will comprise two consultant contract packages:

(i) Project management advisory services, including detailed engineering designs (DED), preparation of contract documents, support to WDs with construction supervision and quality control, and the preparation of any resettlement plans (RP).

(ii) Institutional development and capacity building. 3. All terms of reference refer to a project data sheet, which is attached to this supplementary appendix.

4. Consultant inputs are summarized in Table 1. Consultant (especially international consultant) time is front-loaded to help the Project to get quickly moving in its early years by developing and institutionalizing its procedures (e.g., contracting and procurement) and to establish the project management framework. Follow-up visits are designed to assess the extent to which component approaches and administrative procedures have worked thus far, and refine them based on project experience to that point. Later in the Project, the need for international consultants typically diminishes significantly. If additional or extended consultant needs are identified later in the Project, funds can be reprogrammed accordingly.

5. There are both international and national consultants attached to the PMU. International consultants bring management and technical experience and proven methods from projects in other countries to complement and build upon local consultants’ extensive experience and knowledge of project experience in the Philippines. Given the considerably higher cost of international consultants, their utilization is proposed judiciously, amounting to 15% of the total consultant person-months for the project management advisory services (international inputs for capacity building would be higher because of the nature of the services).

6. Beyond having extensive project experience in other countries, using international consultants in certain selected positions (e.g., team leadership and institutional capacity strengthening) can significantly affect the Project’s ability to deal directly with senior government and ADB officials. This can have a significant positive impact on project operations. Being able to meet directly with senior decision-makers and frankly discuss problems delaying project planning or implementation can help eliminate roadblocks that might otherwise delay implementation, budget approval, policy change, or funds disbursement.

III. TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND CAPACITY BUILDING SERVICES

A. Objectives of the Consulting Services

23. The Government of Philippines (GOP) intends to procure the services of a reputable consultant ("the Consultant") to provide institutional development and capacity building services to the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA), water districts (WD), local government units (LGU), NGOs and communities, to support the implementation of the ADB-funded Water District Development Sector Project (WDDSP). The services will be managed and supervised by LWUA. For details on WDDSP, refer to the attached Project Data Sheet.

B. Scope of works 24. The assistance will be undertaken in two phases:

(i) The first phase focuses on reviewing current governance structures and their underlying legislation for both LWUA and the WDs, developing planning and performance management frameworks for them into the Corporate Plan for LWUA, its corresponding Business Plan as well as a generic Business Plan for the WDs. A particular strategic focus will be on sanitation services, generally through septage management.

(ii) The second phase will be to assist (to the extent of the available budget) in execution of the LWUA Corporate Plan and to implement the generic business plan for the pilot WDs.

Phase 1 25. Review the LWUA Institutional Assessment report prepared in 2009 and updating it in relation to subsequent organizational development, particularly in relation to implementing Executive Order 279.

26. Review the LWUA Financial Assessment report prepared in 2009 and updating it in relation to post assessment events (such as organizational changes noted in Institutional Assessment and changes to the lending mandate for LWUA) and their impact on LWUA’s financial stability.

27. Use the LWUA Financial Assessment as a basis and—considering data gathered on the project pilot WDs, in relation to affordability credit worthiness, financial viability etc.— undertake pilot tariff analyses for the WDs and consider tariff options, their relevant features, pros and cons and make proposals in relation to tariff reform for the WDs.

28. From the baseline, a corporate mission and a charter will be agreed and documented with LWUA management and DOH. The charter will allow corporate objectives to be agreed in areas such as cost reduction, profitability and corporate performance. The charter will also clearly confirm LWUA’s mandate in terms of its varying roles.

29. Develop an updated Corporate Plan for LWUA which will be implemented over the following five (5) years. The Plan will be jointly produced by LWUA and the Consultant. The plan will address objectives identified in the charter and will then identify intermediate (e.g. annual) goals, the success factors which impact on achievement such as performance of specific departments and personnel, and any recognized constraints.

30. The Plan will document agreed strategies to be followed in areas including, but not

limited, to:

� financial management; � regulatory monitoring and reporting; � sanitation development; � asset management; � operations and maintenance management and control; � MIS development; � environmental management; and � human resource development and training.

31. The Corporate Plan will be submitted to the LWUA Board of Trustees for approval.

32. The LWUA corporate plan and business plan and the preliminary training needs assessment conducted during project preparation will be used as a basis for the development of a comprehensive training program for both LWUA and the WDs. Training needs that can be anticipated include the following:

• organizational development and planning;

• financial management and information systems (FMIS) and processes;

• human resources development strategy and related training;

• facility operations and maintenance of septage management systems (including contracting out);

• facility planning and asset management;

• development of an integrated MIS, including GIS;

• public relations and improved public awareness;

• environmental monitoring management and resolving environmental problems particularly in the context of sanitation; and

• outsourcing contract management, asset procurement and tendering. 33. Some of the training needs will be met through provisions in contracts with equipment suppliers, others will be met through staff working alongside and participating in training provided by the design and construction supervision consultants. However, the consultant will need to ensure a comprehensive program of training is prepared and delivered in a coordinated fashion. The consultant will therefore be expected to liaise with the other consultants and relevant suppliers to ensure this is achieved.

34. Prepare a Phase 2 Implementation Plan (PIP). The plan will document:

� Proposals for implementation of the strategies agreed to in the corporate plan for LWUA as they relate to project resources, including consulting staff and project funded procurement.

� Mobilization plans for consulting staff.

� Cost estimates.

� Disbursements program.

� Proposals for counterpart contributions (in kind and otherwise).

35. Prepare a Bridging Activities Plan (BAP) which defines activities to be undertaken while waiting for agreement on commencement of Phase 2.

36. The Bridging Activities should be focused on the training program, community information in relation to sanitation services and on parallel training activities such as job

Page 193: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix R

12

swaps and secondments.

37. The PIP and the BAP will be submitted to the PMU and the Coordinating Committee for approval prior to commencement.

Phase 2

38. Phase 2 will consist of full implementation of the PIP.

39. Specific outputs/ deliverables in relation to Phase 2 will be:

� Preparation of a Community Information/ Outreach Kit in respect to sanitation services to be provided by the water districts;

� A model Environmental Management System (EMS) for the water districts which will be based upon the ISO 14000 framework.

It is recognised that the initial EMS will be relatively simple to allow immediate effective implementation across the range of WDs; however, it should clearly address sanitation (septage management) responsibility and in accordance with ISO14000, a specification and implementation plan for continual improvement of the EMS over a five-year time frame will also be formulated.

• A model Trade Waste policy which can be implemented by the water districts to protect their septage management assets as well as reducing the cost and effectiveness of desludging. The trade waste policy should be based on source collection (i.e. non discharge) of greases, heavy metals and other non domestic strength wastes.

• An MIS strategy generally for LWUA and the WDs, and a corresponding software development and systems procurement. The strategy should address:

� The Strategic Drivers for MIS Development within the LWUA//WD framework.

� Strategic Vision for MIS in the framework. � Assessment of current and planned information systems and technology

architectures and economic evaluation assumptions and analyses. � Recommended Strategy. � User specifications for key systems/ applications (e.g. Customer Care,

Billing and Revenue Collection System) which can be developed and apply at low cost in the WDs to improve financial performance and consequent credit worthiness.

� Documentation for core procurement of servers etc. for the pilot WDs.

C. Management of the Services

40. LWUA is the Executing Agency for WDDSP. It is also responsible for the management and supervision of these technical services. At the water district level, the Consultant will work in close consultation with the water district boards, and general managers and their staff.

D. Inputs to be Provided by the Government

41. LWUA, the participating water districts and relevant local government units (LGUs) will make all relevant data and operational records available to the Consultant, including (but not limited to) SPARs, data on water sources, documents defining proposed water supply

Page 194: Asian Development Bank · Asian Development Bank LOCAL WATER UTILITIES ADMINISTRATION WATER DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT SECTOR PROJECT Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) TA

Supplementary Appendix R

13

service areas, information on existing facilities, field survey data and external audits.

42. Each participating water district will assign one full-time counterpart staff to facilitate conduct of the services. Specialist staff will be available to brief the Consultant at short notice, while senior staff of the government will be available for consultation within two working days of a request for such a consultation.

E. Inputs to be Provided by the Consultant

43. A total of 85 professional staff months are anticipated to support LWUA and the WDs during the implementation period, of which 44 staff months of personnel with international experience (Table 4). The WDs will provide office space for consultants in the field. The total cost of the services is estimated at US$2.3 million; this amount includes the cost of travel, workshops, support staff, and other out-of-pocket expenses, all of which will be borne by the Consultant. It is expected that the assignment will take place from 2011 to 2014 (48 months). Refer to Table 5 for an overview of required deliverables.

44. The Consultant is encouraged to initiate a series of participative planning workshops during the first year of Project implementation, to ensure that plans will be developed in close consultation with key stakeholders. A summary of results of each workshop will be circulated within two weeks of the workshop being held and a record included in the progress reports.

ATTACHMENT: PROJECT DATA SHEET A. Overview 1. The Water District Development Sector Project (WDDSP) will provide improved water supply in five pilot water districts, and additional water districts from the long-list.12 The Project will respond to the environmental needs of urban communities, including low-income households, by optimizing existing assets, expanding coverage, improving governance and building local institutional capacity. The Project will provide an estimated 317,700 additional people with access to piped water services. B. Institutional Arrangements 2. Coordination. A National Inter-Agency Coordination Committee consisting of representatives of the Department of Health (DOH), LWUA, Department of Finance (DOF), National Economic Development Authority (NEDA), Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), and National Water Resources Board (NWRB) will supervise and monitor Project implementation (see Figure 1 overleaf).

3. Implementation – national level. A Project Management Unit (PMU) located within LWUA, which is the executing agency (EA), will manage the Project at the central level. LWUA will oversee the sub-projects in close consultation with the participating water districts. 4. Implementation – water district level. Water district implementation units (WDIU) will supervise and monitor the implementation of the proposed subprojects.

12 Residual funds in the loan will be used for improvements in priority WD(s) from the long-list (scope to be determined).
