All drawings, correspondence (including e-mails), calculations, memos, enquiries, orders, etc., shall commence its subject description or heading marked “BENIN HOUSING PROJECT – (PROJECT)”. The Contract number for this project is N° 001/MT/AAOI/00112019/SIMAU DU 19 AVRIL 2019. PROJECT METHODOLOGY This project will be executed in accordance with: The Contract terms and conditions, This manual, as well as BENIN HOUSING PROJECT standard technical specifications and procedures, BENIN HOUSING PROJECT & SANS PARAKUO standard HSEC specifications and procedures. Constraints envisaged on the project are the lack of skilled artisanal workforce and adequate supervisory personnel within Benin as well as the limited time constraints. HEALTH,SAFETY,ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNITY (HSEC) General A concentrated and consistent application of HSEC considerations will filter through all activities throughout the life of the project with the object of: Minimizing safety hazards and other risks, Improving working conditions during construction and subsequent operation of the plant, Minimizing adverse effect(s) the project may have on its environment, and neighboring community. Appropriate standards and procedures will be selected, developed or adapted to serve as a formal basis to achieve the project's HSEC objectives. The Project Team’s (PT) goal is to take all practicable measures to ensure the safety, health, and welfare of all personnel on the project and to ensure that other persons affected by company operations are not exposed to safety or health risks – HSEC. The PT will apply its professional management skills to the control of losses from personal injuries and illnesses, property damage, security breaches and any other consequences, which may be detrimental to the efficiency, or prestige of the BENIN HOUSING PROJECT and SANS PARAKUO. HSEC implementation will be governed by the following procedures: Health and Safety Plan Environmental Management Plan Legislation The project team shall also comply with all applicable legislative and regulatory HSEC requirements as well as the relevant IFC Standards. Responsibility towards HSEC Every engineer, manager or supervisor with responsibility and authority related to the project and related activities will actively apply this policy and assure development and implementation of effective practices and programs for HSEC. All PT members as well as other personnel deployed on the project are expected to co- operate and contribute toward the overall success of the program by performing their jobs in the safest possible manner in compliance with these manual and regulatory requirements and by conducting themselves in a way that enhances their personal safety and that of others. Auditing Regular inspections and audits will be performed and reported on by the appointed site safety officers so as to identify and correct non-compliance with the above. Appointments Site based personnel will be formally appointed in positions required by law (as per the Act and regulations) and their competence verified. Risk Management A comprehensive risk management approach will form part of the overall management of the project. Project risk management is discussed in detail in section 13.11.

The purpose of the PT is to operate as a unit to achieve the HSEC, time, cost and quality objectives of the project. SUMMARY OF MAIN PROJECT CONTROL SYSTEMS Project Program The Project Program provided is a draft/proposed program with sufficient detail to manage and ensure completion of the Contract. Establishing, updating and monitoring this program is the responsibility of the Project Manager (PM). The PM may delegate the functions of the procedure but not the accountability for the results. In general, the scope of work shall be separated into activities, covering, shop drawings/design, procurement, manufacture (up to delivery), erection/installation (up to readiness for pre commissioning) and commissioning (up to hand over). The major Contract milestone/target ("baseline") dates are also indicated and may not be moved in, or removed from subsequent revisions to the program unless otherwise approved in writing. The duration of activities are estimated on a Gantt chart and are established with the aid of Microsoft Project. Progress shall be monitored with actual progress input to the program at fortnightly intervals, suited to the monthly project progress report. Significant program deviations that may (or do) affect key milestone dates shall be reported on in the monthly project report discussed at the monthly meeting. The PM, and the Engineer as applicable, shall ensure achievement of the milestone dates by expediting delayed items and or augmenting resources to reduce lead times. The schedule update shall include review of: Project duration, Percentage complete of activities, Critical path, Actual start and actual finish dates, and Baseline start and baseline finish dates. Earned Value (EV) Schedule In order to monitor project progress from a financial point of view the cash flow depicted in the Contract, will be broken into monthly amounts. Each month, as part of the monthly invoice submitted by SANS PARAKUO, the Contract cash flow will be updated with respect to actual progress achieved during the month. The update is checked by the PM and attached to SANS PARAKUO invoice. Project Scope Control The project/contract scope is defined in the contract document. It is a project requirement that any change from the scope of works in the contract, which will impact either the project schedule and/or budget be communicated through a Variation Order (VO). Variations may be initiated by the Consultant at any time prior to issuing of the Practical Completion for the Project or part of the works either by an instruction or a request. SANS PARAKUO shall execute each variation, unless the SANS PARAKUO promptly gives notice to the Consultant, the Contractor cannot readily obtain the Goods required for the variation or the variation will reduce the safety and sustainability of the Works or that the variation will have an adverse effect on the achievement of the Performance Guarantees. Upon receiving this notice, the Consultant shall cancel, confirm or vary the instruction Value engineering The SANS PARAKUO JV may at any time submit to the Consultant a written proposal which in SANS PARAKUO opinion will accelerate completion, reduce the cost of the Project and improve the efficiency or value of the Project. Quality Assurance (QA) The quality management process is required to ensure that the project will meet the client's expectations. Project quality management includes the quality of the management process within the project as well as quality of the products incorporated into the project. It involves the following main steps: Quality Assurance involves setting up the project quality system by means of which the performance of the project, suppliers, equipment, services, materials, equipment, installation and erection are evaluated on a systematic basis to provide confidence that the relevant quality standards will be met. The process starts with Quality Planning – Identifying risks, which quality standards are relevant to the goods to be procured and determining how to satisfy these standards, and Followed by Quality Control - Monitoring specific project results or aspects of fabricated or installed items to determine if they comply with relevant quality standards and identification of ways to eliminate or resolve unsatisfactory performance. Human Resources Management Prior to the start of a project, it is the responsibility of SANS PARAKUO JV to identify and assign project roles, responsibilities and reporting relationships for the staff members who will execute the project. Based on its forecast manpower requirements SANS PARAKUO JV shall strive to maintain an adequate core staff complement. This resource is allocated as required for each project, with temporary/additional staff or consulting services brought in to augment SANS PARAKUO JV current resources with local resources supplied by SANS PARAKUO and within the mechanism of the project labor practices and procedures. Employee Relations Plan - BENIN Housing Project Team development The nature and/or scope of projects may differ and it is SANS PARAKUO JV policy to provide its personnel with experience across the range of works undertaken. Engineering or other personnel will therefore be assigned to a variety of roles to gain experience as required with local content provisions. A typical example would be, engineers become involved with cross functional disciplines activities. Notwithstanding, the works will be undertaken in Packages. Skills shortcomings, either as a result of inexperience or as a result of specific or unusual project requirements should be addressed by means of appropriate courses, seminars or training programs. Particular attention will be given to PMT members' needs for HSEC training. Lack of experience or other shortcomings will be identified and an action plan put in place to address the identified issues. In this respect, "on the job" training under an experienced supervisor or peer will be provided as one of the preferred training methods. PMT members will be evenly loaded and PMT members should be encouraged to provide feedback on difficulties they experience as and when they occur. WORK PROGRAM The Work Program is divided into 4 Sections, namely: Mobilization iLot 3 Works iLot 4 Works iLot 8 Works Mobilization: Full mobilization will not exceed 3.75 months. The main activities will be Task Name Contract Formalities Advance Payment Site Set-ups Full Mobilization is projected to take 3.75 months although works on site will commence mid January 2020. Until such time that our off-site facilities such as Batching Plants and Building Block Factory as well as our pre-cast hollow core factory is set up, supplies for such products will be purchased from local sources within Cotonou. iLot 3, 4 & 8 Works The main works will commence in earnest with works on iLot 3 in mid-January 2020. Teams A1 & A2 will effectively be working simultaneously but just 10 days apart. All aspects of the works will be carried out in packages. Ie. Setting out package Excavation package Sub-structure package Super-structure package Block work package MEP packages Plastering package Finishing package Etc In this fashion, each package when completed, moves on to the next site. Each team will consist of 5-10 sub-teams so ensuring a speedy ‘factory process’ of development. This process will be repeated for all the iLots All the works will be closely monitored and other Teams will be trained to be able to buttress the main teams in the event some of the Teams begin to fall behind. TRAINING & CAPACITY BUILDING Training and Capacity Building will be provided from the onset of the works. This will be a fundamental aspect of the project to provide the required number of workers for a project of this magnitude. Both onsite and offsite training will be undertaken to ensure that the locals are provided with the right skills and tooling for the works. A separate document outlining our training proposals is attached to this document as Appendix ………….. Cottage Industries A project of this magnitude will require a constant supply of building components made available well in advance of when they will be required. To enable us meet this high demand, a number of smaller Cottage Industries will be set up alongside the Training, to provide such products as; Blocks both conventional and Gamablocks Assorted door and window frames Cutting and bending of Reinforcement for the works as well as all metal products such as burglar proofing Molds for the works Roofing Material Etc Some of the machinery for such small cottage workshops will at the end of the project, be left behind to support local communities in self-help development projects. The Sans Parakuo JV will work closely with official establishments in this regard to map out the areas and collaboration in this regard. Special emphasis will be put into ensuring that Women form no less than 40% of the trained personnel. Women are known to be meticulous in their work and have an eye for detail, so ensuring that the standards and quality of the works is ensured at all times Quality Assurance: Quality Assurance will be one area that will be addressed. A team of Quality Assurance Officers will be designated to do keep a open eye on all aspect of the works. This team will consist of a variety of disciplines including but not limited to Architects, Structural Engineers, MEP Engineers etc. Snagging Teams: On completion of any works, such works will be continuously monitored for any defects, leakage and or electrical faults. Where such faults are identified, the Snagging Teams will be notified and the faults remedied. A log will be kept at all times of such occurrences. Security: Security will be a major challenge to the project. Completed units will have to be secured at all times until the project is handed over. A combination of CCTV, Lights and Security Personnel will be used to ensure security. Identity Cards with picture of the holder will be issued to everyone and color coded to show clearly the designation of the person and the Team he is working with and who is responsible for him. Thumb recognition will be used to provide access to the work site(s) and monitor attendance. MEETINGS AND COMMUNICATION General Meetings remain an important project tool if used effectively. There are two main purposes of meetings, the one being to communicate or distribute information and the other is to take informed decisions. It should, however, be kept in mind that meetings are expensive in terms of manpower consumption, especially if participants are not prepared in advance to communicate their expected contribution. Before a meeting is called / scheduled the purpose of the meeting as well as the place and time of the meeting must therefore be clear to the invitees. To enable proper preparation for the meeting the agenda and or decision documents should be made available to invitees in advance. If it is a regular meeting, the notes of the previous meeting must be circulated before the meeting. Unless meetings are properly controlled they become wasteful and even counterproductive. The meeting chairman must not allow more than one person to speak at any time and keep the discussion focussed on the issue at hand. Notes should be kept during all meetings by the chairman (or designated secretary). All HSEC issues must be recorded under a "HSEC" heading to highlight these issues to all meeting attendees. Notes must state all issue clearly and if actions are associated with the note(s), the person responsible for initiating/completing the action must be listed as well as a due date by which the action must be completed. Meeting notes should be circulated soon after the meeting as a reminder regarding action points. Retention of Meeting Notes/Minutes Minutes will be maintained and filed in the project file and shall be retained for a minimum period of two years, but at least until completion of the project. Meeting Schedule The following recurrent project meetings, which will form the basis for communication and feedback, are to be held at regular intervals: Meeting Who needs to attend Frequency Construction Progress Meeting Contractors (construction meetings only) Weekly Internal Project Progress Meeting PMT Every Second Week Main Contractors Meeting Contractors Monthly HSEC Meeting Contractors Monthly Project reports The following reports will be generated for internal PMT review and as input to the monthly project progress report: Report Content Responsible Person Frequency Monthly/Weekly Progress Reports HSEC overview, program review, engineering review, construction and commissioning progress update, QA review financial and cost control report and expediting report PM Monthly/Weekly Sub-contractors’ Reports Written report covering all contract activities, including program and areas of concern Discipline PM Monthly Project program update Updated Microsoft Project print- out. PM Monthly Construction report HSEC, weather, manpower, equipment delivery statistics. Erection progress and concerns. CM Monthly PROCUREMENT AND EXPEDITING General Procurement is a costly and time consuming process. Introducing "new/additional" requirements later on in the procurement process may lead to confusion, time loss and additional costs. It is therefore necessary to: Prepare all the information required by prospective tenderers carefully and comprehensively, and to Ensure that the vendor is capable of providing the goods or services to the required level of quality and within the required time frame. Suppliers/Vendors/Subcontractors Before a contract is placed with any vendor / supplier the vendor / supplier must be evaluated in accordance to: Suppliers track record with respect to HSEC, quality and reliability Support services and spares holding stock Expediting orders placed The originator of any order is responsible for ensuring the necessary expediting actions to ensure timeous delivery of all items on the order. Assistance may be requested from the appointed expeditor. This expediting function will include the monitoring of the supplier’s performance against the order program as well as the requirements of the project schedule. Long delivery items should be expedited on a periodic basis even where no formal inspection is required. In expediting an order, the expeditor must ensure that all documentation referred to in the order like, certified design information drawings, material certificates, welder qualifications, recommended spares list, manuals etc., are provided timeously by the supplier for the compilation of the equipment data pack . Another essential check to be performed by the expeditor is to ensure that the latest revisions of duly certified “ISSUED FOR CONSTRUCTION” prints are being used for fabrication and construction. PROJECT QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL General Internationally engineering standards shall also apply where appropriate. Sub-standard workmanship shall not be tolerated in any discipline or at any stage of the project. Quality standards shall be applied uniformly to all suppliers and disciplines. Vendor / Supplier QCP's (SSM) Suppliers are required to supply Quality Control Plans (QCP's). The supplier must initiate the QCP document and must be approved by the expeditor. After proper approval, the QCP is formalized and forms the basis on which inspection is undertaken. QCP’s shall be strictly adhered to and monitored by the expeditor and signed off as applicable. In order to comply with project’s overall quality requirements the expeditor should ensure that as far as practicable, suppliers utilizing sub-contractors apply the same QA/QCP principles and procedures to such sub-contractors. Inspections, Deviations and Concession Requests The project expeditor shall subject suppliers to regular inspections in accordance with the approved QCP. Suppliers well versed in QA with satisfactorily operating QA systems may be visited less regularly than those without. Significant quality deviations or discrepancies shall immediately be brought to the attention of the supplier, who shall be obliged to fix the problem in accordance with the order on good engineering practice, or apply for a concession. If the supplier applies for a concession, the expeditor must submit a report and his recommendation to the PM/discipline engineer for approval. The PM (for design/manufacture) and the CM (for site related issues), will be the final authority in the case of a concession application received from a supplier. The expeditor shall ensure that the suppliers have a copy of the order and all associated documents, like order amendments, QCP, Rev 0 drawings (or later revisions, if any), etc., available for reference during inspections. Data Packs Contracts/orders shall clearly specify the data pack requirements, including HSEC related issues to be addressed within the data packs that have to be supplied by the vendor of the goods. The project expeditor’s function shall ensure that data packs are prepared in accordance with order requirements and are ready for inspection by the Principal’s PM or his representative. After placing of an order with a supplier, the supplier's QA function will create an equipment data pack (EDP) file. Before starting and during manufacture, progressive updating of the book must include: Order and subsequent order modifications (with acknowledgement), Manufacturing bar chart (plan and actual), QCP, signed off as inspected, Material certificates (with identification), Non-destructive testing reports, Pressure testing reports, Outside/3rd party inspection reports, Certified drawings (including latest revisions), All special reports, testing, and Inspection release note. The expeditor will assist with obtaining relevant information for inclusion in the EDP. Manufacturing Program Control There must be close co-operation between the expediting function, the project QA function and the project planning function. The planner must feedback relevant information to allow the expeditor to prioritize their activities in the interest of the project. CONTRUCTION PROCEDURES General The purpose of the site procedures are to ensure that the designated objectives of the project during construction, erection and commissioning on site are in accordance with the specifications, program and budget. To achieve these objectives the following activities are foreseen (not limited to): Safe working conditions and zero incidents, Site/plant safety and other applicable standards.

All waste water will be collected in tanks on site and removed by tankers and disposed of at the local municipality treatment works. Satellite portable ablution facilities and rest areas will be provided throughout the works to ensure sufficient facilities are provided for all staff and workers engaged on the project including subcontractors. The site laydown area will be secured, with only one gate allowing movement of goods. Office space will be established at the site laydown area, where Material Control staff will be available to monitor and control the goods in the laydown. Site administration and Filing The CM is responsible for proper administration related to work done on site. This administration includes: Setting up and maintaining universally applied site access procedure for all persons entering the site, keeping records related to persons on site (copy of I/D document, etc.) Communicating and recording issues that may affect budget, program, performance of equipment, Recording and communicating alterations to design done on site, Maintaining the daily diary on site. A complete and orderly filing system is to be maintained by the CM’s site secretary containing all pertinent documents, including, Safety records and appointment documentation, Minutes of all meetings Records of manpower, plant and machinery on site, Copies of approved job risk assessments, On completion of the project, the site secretary must also ensure that these files are ultimately transferred into the central filing archive. Permission to Work on Site The applicable site rules in this regard will be explained before site establishment. Permission to work on site will be indicated by a personal I/D disc, issued to the person concerned. This identification card shall be worn at all times by all persons working on site. Equipment Used on Site All machinery and equipment to be used on site must undergo inspection and approval by the designated site safety officer(s) prior to utilization of such equipment on site. Equipment requiring site registration must be clearly identifiable (by hard stamping or metal tag attached). Proper record shall be kept of when the equipment was last checked for compliance and what the inspection results were. Risk Assessments All work to be performed on site will be covered by approved risk assessments drawn up by the person(s) involved with or performing the work, before work commences. These assessments shall be submitted for approval upon site establishment of each contractor, and as and when they are required during the contractor’s tenure on site. CONSTRUCTION METHODOLOGY: PHASE 1 – BENIN HOUSING PROJECT Survey & Setting Out Surveying and mapping out will be undertaken by qualified licensed surveyors and approved by the Consultant prior to any construction works being undertaken. Concrete Operations & Structures All concrete works will be preceded by design approved mixes and duly tested for compliance. Batching plants and facilities will be located within 5 klms distance from the site and mobile mixer trucks will supply all concrete to site. Where so required, each iLot will be supplied with adequate number of 10/7 Concrete Mixers that will be used to complement supplies from the batching plant and cater for small amounts of mixes. Construction of Block Work All building blocks will be produced at our off-site facilities and will meet the standards required. These will also be tested for compliance prior to use.
