MONITORING
16. To ensure the quality and quantity of these supplies, the PDMAs and respective
DCOs were advised to ensure that the items so provided are fully in conformity with the
standard quality and quantity. Moreover, it is also being ensured through a check
list/certificate provided to the vendors along with the purchase order, required to be filled in
by the respective district authorities, certifying the quantity and the quality of the relief items
delivered to assigned destinations. The procurement contract provides necessary
safeguards to check any delay/default on part of the vendor/supplier.
FINANCING
17. It is worth mentioning that available resources with NDMA were not sufficient
enough to meet even one week requirement of relief related purchases. The timely relief to
the flood affectees was however, essential as the entire operation was focused on saving
human lives. This could only be made possible, initially with the assistance of government
owned supply chains (USC and CSD) and subsequently with the support of private vendors
who supplied tents, family ration packs and NFIs on credit. The NDMA has already started
making payments to the vendors, details of which are attached at Annexure “A”. The details
of delivery so far are being maintained on daily basis which are also available on website of
NDMA.
