📋 Tender Overview
- Project to improve the walkability service is in charge of the Provincial Municipality of Leoncio PradoHuanuco.- The Comptroller General of the Republic (CGR) warned of deficiencies in the work to improve traffic in the La Curva - Julio C. Tello, Buenos Aires - Rio Tarapoto section of the Castillo Grande district. The project began with an investment of S/ 4.6 million, but currently amounts to S/ 5.5 million due to the approval of additional funds.
Concurrent Control Report No. 018-2025-OCI/0402-SCC (evaluated from November 3 to 7, 2025) reveals that the Provincial Municipality of Leoncio Prado valued unexecuted work, which could generate economic damage to the entity for S/ 55,760. The contractor declared excavation works of fixed rock and loose material as executed, however, the field inspection verified that The indicated areas present flat terrain, with no evidence of excavations. Despite this, these works were valued.
Likewise, the project contemplated the construction of an eight-meter pontoon in section one, however, the commission confirmed that the foundation was not executed. Only initial excavation was observed, even so, the contractor valued leveling work, concrete reinforcement and abutment formwork.
The report also warns that the construction supervision approved valuation No. 6 of additional No. 1 with higher readjustment amounts in favor of the contractor, which generated excess payments of S/ 2,840, affecting the total budget of the investment and causing greater economic damage.
The Comptrollers Office also identified that the viability of the project does not coincide with its technical definition. Although it was approved as a road improvement, there was no local road or previous highway in the area. The work involves opening the road through cuts and excavations, which corresponds to a creation or expansion project, and not improvement, which would show an incorrect allocation of public resources.
Another similar report, Control Milestone No. 015-2025-OCI/0402-SCC (assessed September 16-22, 2025), detailed other deficiencies, such as lack of granular fill (coarse sand) in sewer heads. This material was also not placed in the support beds of the pipes installed as drains, and hardened concrete was found at the ends of said pipes. These poorly executed works could affect the stability, correct operation and maintenance of the sewers.
The project, started in August 2023 and scheduled to be completed in January 2025, has only 55.3% progress and has remained suspended since November 2024. The stoppage is due to the lack of environmental certification, authorization from the National Water Authority (ANA) and the Certificate of Nonexistence of Archaeological Remains (CIRA).
In the absence of a restart date, the work continues without fulfilling its public purpose, directly affecting 453 citizens who would be beneficiaries of the project.
The Comptrollers Office recommended that the municipal entity adopt the necessary corrective actions to ensure compliance with the projects objectives. The full report is available in the Control Services Report Search.
