PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

PREFACE

This is the Project Completion Report (PCR) for the Greater KhulnaPower Distribution Project in Bangladesh, for which Cr.934.BD in the amountof US$28 million was approved on June 14, 1979. The credit was closed onJune 30, 1986, two years behind schedule. It was fully disbursed and thelast disbursement was in February 1987. Cofinancing of US$8.5 million wasprovided by the OPEC Special Fund and was fully utilized. The PCR wasprepared by the Industry and Energy Division, Country Department 1, AsiaRegion (Preface, Evaluation Summary, Part I and and Part III). No commentshave been sought from the Borrower under Part II in view of the specialprocedure for delayed PCRs. A report on project completion was receivedfrom the Borrower in May 1987.

Preparation of this PCR is based, inter alia, on the StaffAppraisal Report, the Credit and Project Agreements, supervision reports,correspondence between the Bank and the Borrower, and internal Bankmemoranda.

GREATER KHULNA POWER DISTRIBUTION PROJECT(Cr.934-BD)

PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

EVALUATION SUMMARY

Introduction

1. In the late 1970s major investments were needed in Bsngladesh'spower sector to provide adequate power supply and sustain economic develop-ment. The Greater Khulna Power Distribution Project (GKPDP) (Cr.934-BD,1979 for US$28 million) was the B :k Group's first lending operation toBangladesh's power sector. Cofinri. .ng of US$8.5 million was provided bythe OPEC Special Fund. The Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB),which is responsible for generation, transmission, and distribution, excepttn rural areas, was the Executing Agency.

Objectives

2. The project achieved its principal objectives of improving thequality of power supply and expanding the system to meet the load demand upto 1989/90 in the west zone urban areas and the adjoining industrial beltsof Khulna, Bagerhat, Satkhira and Mongla Port. The project also providedtraining facilities for BPDB in Khulna, for the engineering, erection andmaintenance of distribution systems.

Implementation Experience

3. The project was completed with a three year delay (para. 5.02)mainly due to:

(a) The discovery in 1980, one year after project start up, that theplanned expansion of the existing 132/33 kV substation at theKhulna power station was neither technically nor economicallyfeasible. A site for a new 132/33 kV substation had to be found,the necessary land purchased and a 132 kV double circuit lineconstructed to connect the substation to the 132 kV grid. The newsite was made available to the contractor only by mid-1983.

(b) BPDB's project unit did not deliver the mapping survey and fielddata necessary to enable expatriate consultants to carry out theplanning of the distribution network. Eventually, localconsultants were appointed in 1981 to carry out the necessaryfield work.

(c) Excessive delays in approving contract awards; on average morethan a year elapsed between the bid opening and contract award.

4. Despite the delays in project implementation and changes inproject scope, the project cost expressed in Dollars was about the same asthe SAR estimates (US$44.2 million actual, compared to US$44.01 million inthe SAR). However, expressed in local currency the total cost was aboutdouble because of the depreciation of the Taka.

5. The closing date was extended by two years. Disbursements laggedabout three years behind the original schedule.

6. The training component was completed with a delay of about threeyears.

Results

7. The project's physical targets were substantially achieved asplanned. The load increase anticipated for 1989/90 could be suppliedwithout any special difficulty and there has been a dramatic improvement inthe quality of power supply in the project areas.

8. The project also provided training facilities and instructors inthe field of distribution engineering, erection and maintenance of distri-bution equipment.

9. BPDB's financial and institutional performance has been dis-appointing, and most of the Credit covenants have not been complied with.

Sustainability

10. The rphabilitation and expansion of the distribution system werefully justified and produced significant benefits. The project has:(a) increased the quality and coverage of power supply in the Khulna areswhich has a major industrial base; (b) strengthened BPDB's planning anddesign capabilities for the implementation of subsequent projects; and(c) provided facilities to train about 300 staff per year in subjectsrelated to power distribution.

Findings and Lessons Learned

11. The main lessons to be learned from the project ares

(a) qualified consultants should be utilized during project prepara-tion to avoid subsequent changes in project scope and delays;

(b) it would be preferabie to use local consultants for distributionplanning work and field survey rather than BPDB staff;

(c) the procurement process should be streamlined and deadlines shouldbe set for the approval of contract awards;

(d) BPDB should adopt uniform standards for distribution equipment;and

(e) loss reduction programs need careful preparation and monitoring.

PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

Part I: Project Review frcm Brnk's Perspective

1. Project Identity

Name : Greater Khulna Power Distribution Project

Credit Number : 934-BD

RVP : Asia Region

Country : Bangladesh

Sector : Energy

2. Background

2 01 Electricity supply in Bangladesh rests with two state-ownedorganizations: the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) created in15S72, wbich is responsible for the generation, transmission, and distri-bution of electricity, except in rural areas; and the Rural ElectrificationBoard (REB) created in 1977, which is responsible for electricity supply inrural areas through consumer-owned cooperatives. BPDB supplies thecooperatives at 33 kV.

2.02 In the late 1970s Bangladesh faced serious development problen.sbecause of its large population, small infrastructure base, recurringdamaging floods, and high oil prices. Apart from limited hydro resourcesin the eastern hills, the only indigenous commercial energy resource wasnatural gas in the country's east zone. The power sector's role ineconomic development was limited, providing neither sufficient nor reliablesupply to meet the country's needs. The rate of electrification was verylow and the annual per capita consumption was 15 kWh (140 kWh in neigh-boring India and 147 kWh in Pakistan). Power cuts for varying lengths oftime were frequent, mainly due to worn out equ.pment, insufficient main-ter.ance and heavily loaded distribution networks. System losses were high,reaching 37% in 1979. Further, BPDB's power system was divided intG theeast and west zones by the Brahmaputra/Jamuna river system. Until thecommissioning of the first 230 kV double circuit interconnector in December

-2-

1982. indigenous gas-fired generation in the east zone could not be trans-ferred to the west zore which relied solely on oil-fired generation. Onthe institutional side, BPDB was over-staffed and had major deficiencies inits operations and finances. The need to upgrade and expand the electri-city supply for productive uses was widely recognized and more than Tk 15billion was allocated to the sector in the Second Five Year Plan FY81-85.

2.03 The Greater Khulna Power Distribution Project (GKPDP) (Cr.934-BD,1979, for US$28 million) was the Bank Group's first lending operation tothe power qector. The project was cofinanced by OPEC Special Fund to thelevel of US$8.5 million. Concurrently with IDA financing thie GKPDP, the UKprovided financing for the Greater Dhaka Distribution Project; ADB for theGreater Chittagong Distribution Project; and Kuwait Fund/Abu Dhabi Fund forthe First East-West Interconnector.

2.04 Subsequently, during the 1980s IDA has supported a number of powersector investments: Ashuganj Thermal Power Project (Cr.1254-BD, US$92million) in 1982; Rural Electrification Project (Cr.1262-BD and 1504-3-BDof US$40 million and US$8 million respectively) in 1982; Second RuralElectrification Project (Cr.1633-BD, SDR 76.3 million) in 1985; and PowerTransmission and Distribution (14 Towns) Project (Cr.1648-BD, SDR 52.3million) in 1985. More recently, an Energy Sector Adjustment Credit(SDR 137 million) and a Power Distrib:ttion (16 Towns) Project (Cr.2016-BDSDR 64.7 million) were approved during FY89. At present, the Ba-1 Group isconsidering the financing of additional projects in the power seccor tomeet the continuing increase in the demdnd for electrical energy (ThirdRural Electrification Project (FY9OL) and proposed Power Rehabilitation andDistribution Project (FY91S)).

3. Project Objectives and Description

3.01 Project Objectives. The objectives of the GKPDP were to: (a) meetthe rapidly growing power demand through the rehabilitation, reinforcement,anid expansion of the distribution networks located within the west zoneurban areas and the adjoining industrial belts of Khulna, Bagerhat,Satkhira and Mongla Port; (b) increase the supply of trained staff,especially in distribution, by providing training facilities and teachersfor BPDB's training center in Khulna; and (c) support institution buildingefforts through strengthening BPDB's planning capabilities and improvingits financial situation.

3.02 Project Description. The major physical components defined in theSAR and executed within the project were:

3.03 Donor Coordination. In the context of four previous loans, ADB financedand supervised the preparation of a major rehabilitation program and a financialrecovery plan for BPDB. This included, in particular, the restructuring ofBPDB's debt to the Government, the reduction of system losses and accountsrecei.vable, the execution of planning studies, and the introduction of a modemnaccounting system. During this first operation IDA reviewed the financialrecovery plan and, aft?r adjusting some over-ambitious targets, endorsed andsupported the program in coordination with other donors.

/4. Project Design and Organization

1.01 The GKPDP w;as designed mainly to provide adequate and reliablepower supply to major distribution centres and industries in the WesternZone of Bangladesh. Similar investmenits in Dhaka and Chittagong werecarried out tunder financing from other donors. Further, the projectprovided facilities at Khulna needed to respond to BPDB's training needs indistritbution engineering.

4.02 BE'DB prepared the feasibility study for the project on the basisof' preliminary ;urieys by BPDB staff and Bank appraisal of the project inFe!bruary 1979 was based an this preliminary work. In accord with the DCA,BPDB had to appoint expatriate consultants for the project design, draftingof specitications, bidding documents and contracts, and construc- tionsupervision; these consultants would develop the capabilities of BPDB's ownstaff .hrough transfer of knowledge during project implementation. BPDBwas to establish a project unit in liulna headed by a full t5ne engineer(project manager) with adequate experience in network plann'n:g and con-struction. The project unit was expected to carr; out the initial fieldsurvey and pr)vide tne expatriate consultants with the basic data forprcject design.

4.03 While the selection of the consultant -.as a condition of crediteffectiveness, the role of the consultant within the project unit was notclearly defined. Furthermore, logistical and administrative problemsdk:layu-d thF consultant's actual mob4lization uncil April 1980. At the same1.imle, BPIDB experienced major difficulties in appointing and maintainingsenm`-r staff at Khulra because of its inadequate compensation and personnelpolicies, and the project unit fell short on the delivery of thp rnecessaryda a from field survey needed for the distribution system planning.C(oii;ecjuently, local consultants had to be appoii.ted, but only in 1981, tocarry out field mapping and distribution planning under the supervision ofthe 4exparriaLe consultant. They were appointed again in 1904 for thestaking of lines before construction could begin.

4.04 During the design phase significant changes had to be made in thescope of the original project. The most notable change was the relocationuf the 1i32/33 kV substation when the expatriate consultant found thatextension of the existing 132/33 kV substation at the Khulna power stationwas technically and economically unfeasible. Therefore, a site for a new132/33 kV substation had to be found and the necessary land purchased,which contributed to major delays in project implementaFio&i.

4.05 In retrospect, the appointment of qualified consultants to assistin project preparation might have avoided these changes in project scopewhiclh weLe necessary late in the project implementation process. Also,B2DB ajid Bank staff over-estimated BPDB's project preparation capabilities.

5. Project ImplementLtion

5.01 Loan Effectiveness and Project Set-Up. The IDA credit wasapproved on June 18, 1979 and declared effective on November 20, 1979; theloan from the OPEC Special Fund, was approved on August 28, 1979 and becameeffective on January 9, 1980. The expatriate consultant, Motor ColumbusConsulting Engineers (Baden, Switzerland), was appointed on February 20,1980 but logistical and administrative problems delayed its actualmobilization to April 1980. Field mapping started in January 1981 usinglocal consultants. Four other local consultants were appointed in October1981 for distribution planning. Significant revisions to the project scopehad to be introduced by the consultant, which contributed to delays inproject implementation as detailed below.

5.02 Implementation Schedule. The project was originally scheduled tobe completed on June 30, 1983. In fact, most of the project's constructioncomponent was not even started by this date, and the project was notcompleted until June 30, 1986. The main reasons for the delays were:

(a) the discovery in 1980 that the envisaged expansion of the existing132/33 kV substation at Khulna power station in the project wasnot feasible (para. 4.04). A suitable location for a 132/33 kVsabstation was .ound about 2 km away from the Khulna powerstation, but this required purchase of land at the new site andconstruction, not originally planned, of a 2 km 132 kV doublecircuit line to connect the substation to the 132 kV system. Thenew site was made available to the contractor only by mid 1983.Moreover, during construction, it was discovered that additionalearth filling was necessary to raise the ground level; thisfurther delayed project execution. The substation was finallycompleted in May 1986, with a delay of about ten months in thecontractual completion date;

(b) extended bid evaluation and contract award reviews; on average, ittook over one year from the receipt of bids to Government approvalof contract awards, because of bureaucratic procedures in reviewand approval of contract awards;

(c) the inordinate time required by the University of Engineering toreview the drawings for the civil works;

(d) the time needed to contract local consultants for distributionplanning in October 1981 when it was realized that BPDB's projectunit could not deliver the work. The material requirements forinternational procurement could not be defined until theconsultants' reports were received eight-ten months later. Thesame consultants were reappointed in June 1984 to carry out fieldstaking prior to line construction;

(e) the lengthy delivery periods for some items of imported equipment;

Page 14: World Bank Documentdocuments.worldbank.org/.../pdf/multi-page.pdfplanned expansion of the existing 132/33 kV substation at the Khulna power station was neither technically nor economically

-6-

(f) the need to change the foundation design for LV poles to resistflooding (concrete instead of compacted earth) during the erectionof poles by local contractors. Poles already erected had to beuprooted and their foundations rebuilt;

(g) the inexperience of local contractors and the lack of skilledlabor and financial capacity to carry out the work; and

(h) the understaffing of the BPDB project unit which could not meetthe volume and nature of work.

5.03 Procurement. The procurement of equipment and materials was amajor time consuming task perfor-ed after field survey and detailedengineering. Originally tha equipment and materials needed for all theproject components were to be procured under ICB, while construction anderection work were to be let under local competitive bidding. BPDB foundlater that the high voltage component (132/33 kV substation and 132 kVtransmission line) would be executed more efficiently under a turnkeycontract. The bidding documents for the turnkey contract and for the maindistribution items were issued in August 1981, and bids received in January1982. Approval of the contract award took about a year, and the variousorders were placed between December 1982 and April 1983. Following thecompletion of detailed planning work, additional items were identified forprocurement; bidding documents were issued in December 1983 and bidsreceived in April 1984. Considerable time was wasted in the bid evaluationprocess, and contract award was approved only in January 1985. Procurementof 11 kV switchgear met #ith several setbacks. While it was originallyanticipated that switchgears available in BPDB stores could be used, it waslater discovered that they were not technically suitable. Bidding docu-ments were issued in July 1984 but again, because of the lengthy process otbid evaluation and approval, the contracts were not awarded until November1985.

5.04 Procurement action proceeded satisfactorily once the contractswere awarded. In general, the procurement procedures followed the Bankguidelines. However, the delays taken to approve contract awards wereunusually long for such equipment and contributed largely to the delays inproject implementation.

5.05 Project Costs. The completed project cost of about US$44.0million was in line with the appraisal estimate of US$44.2 million.However, the actual foreign/local cost balance was significantly differentfrom that forecast. The actual foreign cost of US$30.4 million was 50Zhigher than the estimated foreign cost of US$20.4 million (Table 4A,Part III) due to the increase in the number and capacity of HV substations,the addition of a 2 km double circuit 132 kV line, and additional distri-bution lines and substations. The local Taka costs were about the same asthat projected in the SAR; however, when expressed in US Dollars it wasmuch lower because of the depreciation of the Taka against the US Dollar(US$1 = Tk 15.50 in 1979, and US$1 = Tk 30 in 1986). Conversely, theproject cost expressed in Taka was almost double the SAR estimate, and arevised Project Proforma (increase from Tk 698.5 million to Tk 1,334million) had to be submitted for approval to the Planning Energy Commissionin February 1985.

5.06 Disbursements. The estimated and actual disbursenments are givetiin Table 3, Part III. As of June 30, 1982, three years after the projectstart up, only 5Z of the credit had been disbursed. The bulk of thedisbursements of the Credit occurred in 1984, 1935 and 1986. The Creditwas fully disbursed in February 1987. The original closing date wasJune 30, 1984, but after a two-year extension of the credit closing date,the Credit was closed only on June 30, 1986.

5.07 Credit Allocation. The original and revised allocations andactual disbursement are shown in Table 4B, Part III. The original allo-cations were revised in June 1983 and in September 1985 to take account ofrevisions in the project scope.

6. Project Results

6.01 Project Objectives. Overall the project was successful inachieving its principal objectives of improving the quality of power supplyand expanding the system to meet the load growth up to 1989/90. Afterproject implementation the expected quality of supply improved signifi-cantly. The project also trained six instructors for BPDB in distributionengineering and also improved BPDB's training facilities. Khulna is now

one of BPDB's main training centers in distribution engineering. It isplanned to add training in live line working under the ongoing PowerTransmission and Distribution Project (Cr.1648-BD).

6.02 Physical Results. The project's physical targets were achieved,substantiallv as planned. The load increase anticipated for 1989/90 couldbe supplied without any special difficulty. Annex 1 gives historica'1 darr

on load demand in Bangladesh which shows high rates of growth.

6.03 Financial Performance. The financial statements, including bothappraisal estimates and actual results for FY79-85, are given in Annex 2.Early in project preparation it was recognized that the most difficultproject issue involved establishing BPDB on a sound financial basis.BPDB's finances were in a deplorable state and deteriorating rapidly withhigh losses, excessive payroll, doubtful accounting, low tariffs and non-billing for about 67Z of customers. A financial recovery plan was preparedand agreed between GOB and ADB under the Greater Chittagong PowerDistribution Project which included, in particular, the restructuring ofBPDB's debt to GOB. With IDA's involvement, a priority program was estab-lished, and a set of urgent actions were defined in the areas of lossreduction, power system rehabilitation, management improvement and tariffs.As part of the recovery plan, IDA also agreed on soft onlending terms forthe GOB loan to BPDB (25 years, including 5 year grace period and 5Zinterest rate). To monitor the program's effectiveness, a financialcovenant in the form of operating ratio targets was agreed (FY80: 1352,FY81: 120?, FY82: 1002). Further, specific targets for system losses wereagreed in a side letter (reduction from 37Z in FY79 to 23? in FY85). Undersubsequent Credits, the targets for loss reduction were revised upward, andthe financial covenants were changed to internal cash generation(Cr.1254-BD) and to rate of return (ROR) on revalued assets (Cr.1648-BD andCr.2016-BD).

*/ On average, revalued not fixed assets in operation.

/ The figures in the SAR for not internal cosh generation and operation ratio have bencorrected to be consistent with tho definition in OMS 2.22.

The average annual increase in electricity sales of 13%, coupled with anaverage annual tariff increase of 182, resulted in a substantial increasein sales revenue from Tk 629 million in FY79 to Tk 6,019 million in FY87,an average annual increase of about 33Z. However, operating expensesincreased about by 27Z p.a., thereby offsetting most of the much neededimprovements in financial viability that BPDB would have otherwiseachieved. The ROR on revalued net assets improved from a negative 4.7% inFY79 to 2.5Z in FY85. The operating ratio improved from !30% in FY79 to90Z in FY85, against 661 projected in the SAR. The net internal cashgeneration as a percentage of investment was projected to be 34% in 1985,but was actually 24Z.

6.05 No agreement was sought under the project on target levels forBPDB's accounts receivable. This was subsequently realized to be a keyomission for the improvement of BPDB's financial viability and introducedinto subsequent projects, beg;nning with the FY82 Ashuganj Thermal PowerProject. Accounts receivable peaked at 7.4 months' average monthlybillings in FY87 and were reduced to 3.5 months' billings in September1989. Accounts payable were on average 9.4 months' overdue, reflecting adeteriorating liquidity position. At the same time, while the billing ratehas improved, system losses in 1985 were 37Z comparel to 23% projected inthe SAR, and 38% in FY87. Reducing losses and improving billing andcollection rates still remain a challenge for BPDB.

6.06 In late 1988 IDA learned that BPDB was making interest paymentsand repayment of principal on the same terms as the Government payments toIDA, rather than in accordance with the subsidiary loan agreements. Underthe Energy Sector Adjustment Credit (Cr.1999-BD) and the Power Distribution(16 Towns) Project (Cr.2016-BD) this anomaly was corrected with the conver-sion of arrears into equity ind agreement by July 1, 1989 the SLA agree-ments would be implemented.

6.07 The SAR noted that, since the project was part of BPDB's rehabili-tation and expansion program, it was not appropriate to estimate a projecteconomic internal rate of return (EIRR). Instead, the EIRR for the FY79-83"time slice" of BPDB's total investment program was calculated. Usingtariffs as a measure of benefits, this was estimated to be 8Z. However, inretrospect, the project EIRR could have been computed using projectedincremental sales from the project and measuring benefits in terms ofconsumers' willingness to pay (WTP). Using this methodology the projectEIRR would have been much higher than the 12Z opportunity cost of capital.This methodology has recently been used for the economic evaluation of theGreater Khulna Phase II distribution component of the proposed PowerRehabilitation and Distribution Project (FY9lS); its EIRR is 17Z withbenefits measured in terms of FY90 tariffs and 23Z on the basis ofconsumers' WTP.

6.08 Impact of Project. Despite the three year delay in project imple-mentation, the project made a major impact in improving the quality cfsupply in the Khulna area. BPDB staff and the local consultants involvedin the project execution benefitted considerably from the transfer ofexperience from the expatriate consultants. Also there will be long-lasting impacts through the training of BPDB personnel in the KhulnaTraining Center. The project established a working relationship betweenBPDB and IDA and therefore provided a basis for subsequent operations.

7. Project Sustainability

7.01 The project had the following significant benefits:

(a) increasing both the quality and coverage of power supply in theKhulna area, which has a major industrial base;

(b) strengthening BPDB's planning and design organization for theimplementation of subsequent projects; and

(c) training about 300 staff per year in erection and maintenance ofdistribution equipment.

8. Bank Performance

8.01 The project was the first Bank power sector peratton inBangladesh and started a dialogue with GOB/BPDB on the power sector'sphysical and institutional development, which has continued during sub-sequent operations. The following lessons can be learnt from theexperience gained under the project:

Page 18: World Bank Documentdocuments.worldbank.org/.../pdf/multi-page.pdfplanned expansion of the existing 132/33 kV substation at the Khulna power station was neither technically nor economically

-10-

(a) project preparation by BPDB was inadequate, and Bank staff shouldhave insisted on BPDB appointing consultants, possibly financedunder a PPF, to better prepare the project before appraisal.

(D) BPDB had to implement a major investment program and did not havethe necessary resources to contribute effectively to the project'sdesign and execution. Retrospectively, the Bank should haveinsisted on BPDB appointing local consultants at an early stage ofproject execution. This requirement has been enforced for subse-quent IDA-financed projects;

(c) considering BPDB's large and growing investment program in distri-bution, more attention should have been devoted to developinguniform standards for distribution equipment instead of havingeach consultant provide its own;

(d) before setting specific target figures for loss .eduction, thesources of losses need to be carefully studied and an actionprogram defined; and

(e) delays in the approval of contract awards were unusually long forthis project. Although endemic bureaucratic problems still existin Bangladesh, the Bank should have been more forceful inpersuading GOB/BPDB to streamline the decision-making process inprocurement actions.

9. Borrower Performance

9.01 Except for 1983/85, BPDB's overall financial performance has beenunsatisfactory, and most of the credit covenants were not complied with.BPDB made some progress in a relatively short time in project management,accounting and commercial operation, but there is still scope for furthersubstantial improvements. The project was not adequately prepared, andBPDB and the Bank over-estimated the project unit's capacity to contributeto project execution. Local consultants had to be hired at a later stageto carry out tasks originally assumed by the project unit. The delays inthe procurement process could have been reduced if better procedures wereadopted for contract approval and award. The main lessons to be learntfrom the project are that:

(a) to undertake a major investment program BPDB needs to employqualified consultants, especially during the preparation phase;

(b) BPDB should adopt uniform standa.ds for distribution equipment toimprove project implementation, and facilitate operations andmaintenance;

(c) procurement pro'edures need to be streamlined and deadlinesadopted for the evaluation and approval of contract awards; and

(d) local consultants should be hired for project planning at an earlystage of project implementation.

10. Project Relationship

10.1 IDA's relationship with Government and BPDB has been generallygood.

11. Consulting Services

11.01 BPDB engaged Motor Columbus (Switzerland) with local consultantsto implement the physical component and EDF (France) to assist with thetraining component. Motor Columbus carried out project design, drafting ofspecifications and bid documents, and supervision of project implemen-tation. The HV component was satisfactorily completed despite the threeyear delay. The setbacks faced in the implementation of the distributioncomponent could be attributed to the lack of continuity of expatriateconsultant staff, particularly the Project Manager, and hasty preparationof bid documents. Local consultants carried out field surveys and distri-bution network planning under the supervision of Motor Columbus. EDFdesigned the training program for the Distribution Training Center, trainedsix of BPDB's instructors abroad, and assisted BPDB in procuring thenecessary training aids satisfactorily. The consulting cell of theEngineering University, Dhaka, and some other local consultants renderedservice in the design of civil works. Overall, the performances of theconsultants were satisfactory.

12. Project Document and Data

12.01 The Credit Agreement for Cr.984-BD was adequate and appropriatefor achieving project objectives in the key organizational and financialareas. The SAR provided a useful framework for both the Bank and BPDB forproject implementation. BPDB provided a draft project completion report.
