The Procuring Authority was actively involved on a daily basis in monitoring the project during the construction phase. An independent consultant was appointed to certify progress of works and make recommendations for the Procuring Authority's approval of all documents relating to the construction phase of the project. The independent consultant owed a duty of care to each of the parties with a duty to act professionally and independently. The parties shared the cost of the independent consultant's remuneration equally and have established arrangements where the payment of the remuneration will be made by each party on the same day each month, based on the invoice received from the independent consultant.
During the operations phase, the Procuring Authority has been satisfied that the number of resources it currently has is adequate to monitor the performance of the Project Company.
