👉How to be treated-Forgotten Items in Previous Interim Payments?

💫A contractor can be paid for a forgotten item of work in the final payment, but it depends on contract terms and proper documentation.

🚧1. Contractual Basis

⏺If the item is part of the original scope of work (included in BOQ, drawings, or specifications) but was mistakenly omitted in earlier interim payments, it can be included in the final account.

⏺If it is an extra or variation, a formal variation order or instruction should be approved before payment.

🚧2. Verification

⏺The Resident Engineer (RE) or Consultant must verify that:
⏺The work has been executed to the required standard.
⏺It was not previously paid for.
⏺It is not a duplication of another item.

🚧3. Payment Procedure

⏺Include the forgotten item in the Final Payment Certificate.
⏺Provide a measurement sheet or payment summary showing the work done and its valuation.
⏺Obtain approval from the Engineer/Consultant and Client before release of payment.

🚧4. Contract Clauses

⏺Refer to the contract clauses on Final Account, Variations, and Payment Certificates (FIDIC, PPA, or local standard contract conditions).

🔰4.1 FIDIC (1999 Red Book)

▶️Clause 14.6 – Issue of Interim Payment Certificates

▶️“The Engineer may in any payment certificate make any correction or modification that should properly be made to any previous payment certificate.”

▶️This means if an item was forgotten in the first payment, it can be included in later interim payments, provided it was part of the contract works.

🔰4.2 Ethiopian Public Procurement Agency (PPA) Conditions of Contract

▶️Clause 43.1 – Interim Payment Certificates

▶️“The Engineer may in any payment certificate make any correction or modification that should properly be made to any previous certificate.”

▶️Clause 47 – Final Statement and Payment also confirms that any remaining adjustments or omissions shall be included in the final payment

▶️Once the final certificate is signed, no additional claims are normally accepted unless there is a formal dispute.

🚧5. Practices

⏺According to the Ethiopian Standard Conditions of Contract (MoWE or ERA):

⏺Clause on Interim Payment Certificates allows correction of previous omissions or errors in subsequent certificates.

⏺Payment is cumulative – meaning any forgotten item can be added later as long as it is justified.

🚧6. Time Limitation

⏺Some contracts state that claims not raised within a certain time (e.g., 28 days after discovery) may be invalid. Check the contract for such provisions.

👉Ethiopia to Build East Africa's Biggest National Integrated Health Rehabilitation Center

💫The Ministry of Health has emphasized that the groundbreaking National Integrated Rehabilitation Center will mark an important milestone in integrating Ethiopia's health infrastructure.

Minister of Health Dr. Mekdes Daba has launched the construction of the National Integrated Rehabilitation Center at Gefersa, Sheger City, in a ceremony attended by senior government officials and medical practitioners.


🚧In her speech during the occasion, the minister emphasized that the new rehabilitation center will be a benchmark for the country's health-care sector.

⏺Ethiopia's current rehabilitation center has been carrying out operations on patients for more than 40 years, and the new venture aims to transform it into a continental center of excellence, Africa's leading rehabilitation center for health-challenged people.

⏺Dr. Mekdes reaffirmed the government's emphasis on health policy, particularly in dealing with non-communicable diseases, which have been a priority over the past three decades.

The new center, as announced by the minister, will consolidate 17 different facilities into one integrated institution, offering joint services for physical disabilities alongside mental illnesses.

▶️According to the minister, comprehensive rehabilitation programs will also be available to patients with cognitive, psychological, and bodily impairment.

The complex, which will span more than 17 hectares, will host 13 blocks of medical, therapeutic, residential, and recreational services, according to the minister, adding that it will also comprise urban agriculture programs to support patient care, enable therapy, and create employment opportunities for professionals across different fields.

▶️Upon completion, the National Integrated Rehabilitation Center will be East Africa's biggest, delivering specialized care for accident injuries, chronic ailments, and natural conditions.

⏺The entire project is funded by the Ethiopian state, the minister explained, a testament to the country's resolve to add rehabilitation services and promote health tourism.

⏺The center will be a beacon institution that will boost the living conditions of underprivileged communities within Ethiopia as well as the whole continent, she added.

👉Foundation Strengthening

💫Foundation strengthening is necessary when an existing structure’s foundation is no longer adequate to safely carry the imposed loads due to

✅Soil settlement or loss of bearing capacity
✅Changes in building loads (e.g., adding extra floors)
✅Construction defects or deterioration
✅Seismic or flood vulnerability
✅Nearby excavation or changes in ground condition

🚧Different types of foundation Strengthening

✅Mass Concrete Underpinning: Simple & cost-effective for shallow foundations.
✅ Beam & Base (Pier & Beam): Transfers load to stronger soil, less digging.
✅Mini / Micro-Piles: Deep support, minimal disturbance.
✅Needle-and-Pile / Cantilever Needles: Localized or one-sided reinforcement.
✅Concrete Jacketing: Encases foundations to increase capacity.
✅Chemical / Jet Grouting: Densifies soil or fills voids, perfect for tight spaces.
✅Screw Piles / Helical Piers: Quick installation, low vibration.
✅Angle / Root Piling: Stabilizes nearby walls & structures.
✅Soil Stabilization: Geosynthetics, polymers, or geofoam for stronger ground.
✅Base Isolation: Protects buildings in earthquake zones.
