14.7 Contract Management
The common practice includes weak and vague contracts,
breaching of contracts and absence of contracts. Given the
outcomes of the review of some legal contracts that were
entered into by Public Authorities and other Bodies the
following recommendations are drawn:-
Recommednation
• TANESCO management should immediately review the
Songas project cost to establish the correct amount
which should be paid.
• Bank of Tanzania management should review the
existing contract for the extension of BOT Headquarters
building work to ascertain whether it is still valid and
that the Bank is safeguarded from contract risks. The
review should also involve terms and conditions with
sub-contractors and consulting engineers. Maximum
contract price and completion timetable should be
agreed with the Contractor. Since the Bank will
continue to have major contractor such as Estate
management and IT, it should consider developing
Project Management Methodology as well as develop a
programme aiming to build the Bank’s internal capacity
to manage major contracts.
• Bank of Tanzania management should institute a
competent independent investigation on the
transactions of Insurance for Construction of Head
