Addis Ababa Housing Development And Administration Bureau

Addis Ababa Housing Development:

The Addis Ababa City Administration intends to contract out seven divisions’ worth of twenty-four service deliveries. According to Tassew Gebre, in an interview with Voice of America Amharic Service, the goal of this move is to improve the delivery of public services. The cabinet level made the decision.

The majority of the services that are being outsourced are related to land. The administration plans to put these reforms into effect to reduce spending on the government and eliminate poor governance practices within those departments.

Tassew Gebre listed the seven city administration divisions that would be outsourced:

• Construction Authority and Building License
• Bureau of Housing Development and Administration
• Transportation Office Housing Corporation Land Development and Administration Office Food and
• Pharmaceuticals Authority Land Registration Agency
• Not to mention the issue of desirability, there are questions about the fairness and openness of this shift to the
• private sector, especially given the pervasive corruption at different levels of government.
• VoA Amharic was informed by Tassew Gebre that the procedure would uphold “transparency,” although a precise date for the service transition is still unknown.

The destiny of government employees working in these sectors is another urgent worry. Gebre stated that all staff would be taken on by private enterprises that took over the local administration’s contracts. It is unclear, therefore, if the local government would continue to have regulatory jurisdiction over these businesses following the handover.

Interestingly, there had been politically motivated changes to city administration policies, mainly targeted at changing Addis Ababa’s demographic makeup. Whether the planned privatization of city services connected to property is free of hidden political agendas is still up for debate.

“Home-Grown Economy” in Ethiopia is Seeing a Deepening Neoliberal Trend:

Addis Ababa Housing Development:

Early on under Abiy Ahmed’s administration, movements toward privatization became apparent. First, an advisory council including well-known national individuals was formed to lend a façade of legitimacy to this privatization effort. But Abiy Ahmed quickly disbanded this board and started selling off national property, including stakes in the government-owned Ethio Telecom. Sugar factories and Ethiopian Shipping and Logistics Service Enterprise were reportedly for sale as well.

Abiy Ahmed revealed plans to give Ethiopians 10% ownership in Ethio Telecom, with Ethiopian Airlines to follow suit at a later date, in a recent speech to party and government officials. His government is thought to be in financial distress due to the continued wars in the Amhara area and other regions of the country, rising inflation rates that make living expenses hard for millions of people, and growing debt. However, his administration has given priority to a rumored $15 billion palace building in the nation’s capital, and he has declined to disclose to the parliament where the project’s funding comes from. There is conjecture about the possible partial divestiture of Ethiopian Airlines.

Ethiopia is becoming more and more aligned with neoliberal economic ideas, despite the government’s promotion of the “homegrown” aspect of its economic policy. Given Ahmed’s administration’s tight relationships with the World Bank and the IMF, it is unlikely that these Bretton Wood organizations are providing funds for the so-called “Home-Grown Economic Model.”

Ethiopian Public Construction Projects: The Reasons and Consequences of Project Delays:

Ahmed, Dr. Hamed M. S.

Projects, particularly public construction projects, are essential to a country’s economic development because they raise communal standards of living. The purpose of this study was to evaluate Dessie Town’s public construction projects’ causes and impacts. To meet the study’s goal, 128 clients, consultants, and contractors working on ongoing projects in Dessie Town were contacted. questionnaires designed to acquire firsthand information from the intended audience. It has both open-ended questions and a Likert scale.

The relative relevance index and descriptive data analysis approaches were used to examine the gathered data. This indicator is commonly employed in comparable research to assess the degree of significance and frequency of delay causes and consequences. The study’s conclusions demonstrated that externals, contractors, consultants, and clients were the main sources of delays. Additionally, clients bear the primary responsibility for project delays in Dessie Town. Furthermore…

Addis Ababa Housing Development:

One of the most prevalent issues facing the construction industry today is project delays, which can have a wide range of detrimental consequences for the project and its stakeholders. This study set out to evaluate the primary reasons behind construction delays in public buildings under the Addis Ababa Administration, with a primary focus on grade one contractors.

The most significant and crucial causes of public building construction delay-causing factors were assessed and ranked based on the RRI (Ranking and computation of relative importance index) values from the data collected in a questionnaire survey of three groups of respondents: clients, consultants, and contractors in the construction industry. In these projects, 42 delay-causing events in the Addis Ababa public building construction projects were identified and categorized into five main category groups.

The results of the survey showed the top 10 reasons that contribute to construction delays in Addi… public building projects.

An examination of the reasons behind delays in Wa, Ghana’s middle-class and high-class self-build housing projects (SBHPs)

DERY, Anthony Bangdome:

Addis Ababa Housing Development:

Synopsis Many obstacles impede middle-class and upper-class developers’ self-build housing projects (SBHPs), delaying the completion of the project by several months. This paper’s main goal is to determine the significant delay factors by analyzing the components that contribute to SBHP delays. Twenty variables were identified through a review of the literature and expert advice, and these were used in a structured questionnaire to gather information from Wa Municipality owners, consultants, and builders. The data analysis included mean ranking, t-test analysis, and reliability test.

The first delay cause identified by the data was “Delay in obtaining a permit from Local Authorities,” which was followed by “Poor site management and supervision.” “Inadequate cost estimation and related details” from consultants was the delay reason that scored lowest. The report suggests that government organizations in charge of overseeing physical development step up public education, with a focus on duties and obligations, particularly for those who build their own homes.

The report suggests more research be done on labor-related concerns as well as participant communication and information management and how these affect the effectiveness of self-build projects. Keywords: Housing Projects, Ghana, Self-Build, Delays
