2. Mobilization of Team 5
Execution of the subcontract: On 16 March 2020 until 31 May 2020, NSCR project was
suspended by the government due to COVID-19 pandemic. Upon partial resumption in June 2020,
substructure works were limited to cleaning of rebars, safekeeping of materials and equipment
preparatory to the full works resumption. At this point, the project milestones dependent on the the
substructure completion, in full or in part, were compromised.

Meetings between SMCC & SCIC: From June 2020, NSCR was allowed to resume works
subject to government imposed restrictions ans protocols amid the COVID 19 pandemic. During the
gradual works resumption and re-mobilization of resources, SMCC and SCIC held series of meetings
and discussions requiring SCIC to provide an additional substructure working team (team no. 5) to
counter the effects of COVID -19 pandemic that severely impacted the continuity and progress of
subcontract works. Manpower and equipment are provided on 1 August 2020 aligned to SMCC
provided revised schedule.

productivity of 2.75%

3.1 Variation Order

SMCC issued a variation order for the construction of piers at PR5 59-60 Bocaue Area. The

actual completion of Substructure works was March 27,2023, therefore, the substructure subcontract
completed 50 days ahead on time against plan/schedule with an actual monthly productivity of 3.10%
vs plan of 2.75%, thereby demonstrating an acceleration of the substructure works scope attributable
to the mobilization of additional team no 5 resources.
