Identifying such processes allows a better understanding of the capacity constraints in planning, designing, programming, procurement, contract administration, financing and budgeting, execution, and other stages in a project cycle. The case studies clearly demonstrate the presence of deep rooted systematic problems related to: (1) inadequate client capacity to plan, procure, program, administer, and manage projects; (2) imbalanced conditions of contracts; (3) flawed procurement procedures (pre-qualification, bid evaluation, negotiations, and re-negotiations with the lowest bidder) causing significant delays; (4) mismatched project funding needs and actual availability of funds; (5) commencement of projects without ensuring that required funds are in place; (6) delay in making running payments; (7) insufficient time given for detailed design and variations in contract due to inadequacies in design; (8) limited capacity of local contractors; and (9) poor international bid response in mega projects related to credibility issues.
