📋 Tender Overview
The Comptroller General of the Republic alerted the Ayacucho Regional Health Directorate – DIRESA about the acquisition of new equipment for the cold chain that is not used since 2022 due to the lack of completion of the work of Optimization Investments, Marginal Expansion, Rehabilitation and Replacement – IOARR.
Ten refrigerators, three freezers, VRF units of air conditioning system and conservation chamber were acquired, all stored on site since the end of 2022 and exposed to dust and other elements that can deteriorate them. These equipment have not been received and have not been tested or trained in their use.
The Control Visit Report No. 014-2023-OCI/3446-SVC, also warned that in the cold chain infrastructure works were executed without complying with the provisions of the technical file and / or there is no support for its execution. Nor were the electrical panels properly installed, so there is no three-phase power system, nor high traffic floors as indicated in the technical file. The paint on the walls and ceilings is coming off and there is moisture filtration, among other deficiencies.
The aforementioned works had a cost of S / 110 230, but could cause higher costs to DIRESA by re-valuing works that are not really executed, in addition to the correction of those that were poorly executed.
Although DIRESA does not have technical-administrative personnel or a specialized area in the execution of works that ensures the adequate progress and fulfillment of project goals, this IOARR is carried out under the modality of execution of works by direct administration, for an amount of S / 2 494 825.38 with a term of ninety (90) calendar days.
It is worth mentioning that the execution of the aforementioned investment project began on October 13, 2021 and after several stoppages and restarts, it is currently paralyzed.
The simultaneous control report was communicated to the director of DIRESA so that the corresponding preventive and corrective actions can be taken.
