 The study should identify the institutions to be involved in the development of the project. It
should identify any constraints on the proposed development as a result of current institutional
set-ups. The issue of how best to mobilize and involve farmers in the development work must be
given full consideration and concrete alternative proposal on organizational requirements and
methods should be presented.
 An irrigation water user association (s) must be established at the respective command area.
 In particular the issues of the difficulty farmers have in obtaining sufficient extension support,
credit and marketing facilities, and training should be well addressed.
 Existing national and regional government policies and strategies relevant to the proposed
development project should be reviewed and evaluated exhaustively. Constraints that such
policies impose on the envisaged project, if any, should be identified and proposals made for
modifications for the policies to enable effective project output.
 Detailed studies and recommendations on all relevant phases of the proposed development
project particularly the operational and management structures required to implement the project

should be made. Procedures of organizing an Irrigation Water Users Association and its
constitutional aspects should be presented.

As the name of the program indicates, the whole process including study and design phases should
ensure real participation of farmers. This is mainly because
1. As per the agreement between Ethiopian government and IFAD, farmers will contribute 5%
of the construction cost either in the form of labor or supplying materials; in the case of
watershed works 40% contribution in the form of material and labour
2. After the completion of construction, farmers will be handed over.
Therefore, the consultant will be responsible for arranging meetings with beneficiaries and stake
holders to ensure that farmers have accepted and agreed to work as per the program criteria. Hence,
this should be indicated during the study process and must be confirmed using legal documents.
Furthermore, the consultant must ensure active participation of all stake holders namely,
1. Administration office of the Woreda

2. The Woreda Water Resources office
3. The Woreda Rural and Agricultural Bureau
4. The Woreda office of Land Use Administration and Environmental Protection
5. The Woreda or nearby Research Institute
6. The Extension development agent with in the scheme and
7. The Woreda Health Office

This is mainly because all stake holders have a decisive role in making the project objectives
attainable.
As a result, the consultant should make sure that (using official signatures):
o The consultant should be responsible for bringing a certificate from the respective Woreda
or regional Bureau of Health stating that, an impact assessment of the scheme on public
health has been carried out and instituted appropriate measures to protect the community
have been proposed.
or regional Bureau of water resources about irrigation water permission of the scheme.
administration office about acknowledgement and request made by the beneficiaries. (The
scheme initiation and identification should be carried out jointly with beneficiaries in such a
way that the beneficiaries will contribute 5% of the project cost (infrastructure cost) either in
the form of labour or supplying construction materials; in the case of watershed work 40%).
Bureau of water resources about agreement made between the irrigation water user’s
association officials (all) and the Woreda administration. (A scheme implementation
agreement must be entered into between the respective IWUA and Woreda administration).
or regional Bureau of agriculture and rural development stating that, all beneficiaries have
their own land holding certificates. (or Realistic arrangements must be put into place for the
issuance of land certificates to beneficiaries of the respective command area).
or regional Bureau of agriculture and rural development stating that, Development Agent
(DA) is assigned on each scheme (indicating his full name)
or regional Bureau of agriculture and rural development stating that, the respective
watershed has either been treated or that realistic arrangements (including finance) have
been made for its treatment.
o The consultant should be responsible for bringing a clearance (certificate) from the
respective Woreda office or Regional Bureau of Land Use Administration and

Environmental Protection stating that, the respective its expert has carried out the ESIA
screening checklist and the expected impact is insignificant & it will be protected by the
community and the woreda support.
All forms can be obtained from Regional BWR or PASSIDP-II coordination Project Offices. In
cases of some difficulties during the study and design process the Project coordination unit can help
but the consultant is solely responsible for each and every stake holder and beneficiary involvement.

11.0 Payment Schedule
Payment provisions, including amounts to be paid, schedule of payments, and payment procedures,
should be agreed upon during contract negotiations. Payments will be made as per agreed outputs.

Terms of Payment for this consultancy will be as under lump sum contracts; and this will be
payable as follows:
 Twenty percent (20%) of the lump sum amount shall be paid up on submission of inception
report.
 Thirty percent (30%) of the lump-sum amount shall be paid upon submission of the draft
final report.
 Forty percent (40%) of the lump-sum amount shall be paid upon approval of the final report.
 Ten percent (10%) of the Lump-Sum amount will be up on obtaining of environmental
clearance from the respected offices responsible.
1. Payment of Laboratory Costs for Soil Survey/Agronomy, Field and laboratory costs for
Geological and Geotechnical Exploration and material testing will be paid on
measurement. (As per the breakdown attached on the contract agreement and up on
submission of each test result and measurement of pit depth and borehole)
2. With reduction/increase of irrigable command area given by the client at the beginning
of the study; the costs of Hydraulic/Irrigation Engineer, Senior Surveyor and Assistance
surveyor will be reduced/ increased accordingly.
3. The consultant should thoroughly examine and investigate the availability and suitability
of core and shell material from the early stages of study and design period up to the final
design. In case, the consultant feels the core and shell materials are not sufficient for the
proposed project, it should notify immediately while working on site so to allow the
client to look for other source and technology options. If there happens scarcity of core
and shell materials during construction once it is reported as sufficient in the study and
design, the consultant should indemnify the client for such disparities. Hence, the
consultant should reimburse the same amount with the study and design contract.
However, the consultant will not be responsible for changes occurred after the design
(such as, manmade extraction of the quarry material, major natural disaster that results a
change on natural condition etc.
4. If the client fails to comment the draft report within a month duration, the draft design
will be considered as a final design and final payment will be paid.
5. If the study and design of the Project is terminated before completion due to Force
Majeure, the expense of the Consultant for Experience Sharing and Knowledge transfer
shall be reimbursed by the Client.
12.0 Transfer of Skill and Technology
 Practicing professionals from the region and woreda will be assigned to work as counter
parts to most of the experts of the study team. Each member of the consultant team, while
conducting the study and design work, will involve his/her counterpart in practical activities.
In due course, the expert will identify the skill gap and conduct them on the job training for
his/her counterpart. The effectiveness of the skill transfer process will be evaluated by each
expert, the team leader, over all evaluation will be made by the bureau periodically.
A sort of lecture or seminar should also be arranged towards the end of the input of each consultant
so as to present the procedures and methodologies he has followed to execute his assignments.
 The type and number of field and office equipment that would be used during planning,
investigation and design will be specified as detail as possible. During the progress of the
study, the experts should have to demonstrate the operation and handling of the equipment
to their respective counter parts.
