An essential part of the Pakistan
Infrastructure Implementation Capacity Assessment (PIICA)
was an assessment of available resources and the demand
generated for these resources by the proposed infrastructure
projects. A demand-supply gap analysis for Human Resources
(HR), major construction materials and equipment keeping in
view the Medium Term Development Framework (MTDF) for up to
2010 has been reviewed to better understand the constraints
faced by the industry. Shortage of manpower emerged as a
significant theme when studying the implementation capacity
of large infrastructure projects in Pakistan. Stakeholders
(clients, consultants and contractors) have been unanimous
in identifying the lack of suitably qualified people in
their organizations as an impediment both to successful
implementation as well as the quality of the products and
services they deliver. The Perception Survey conducted for
the purpose of this study revealed that 67 percent of
stakeholders believed that HR posed a significant constraint
to the implementation of large infrastructure projects in
Pakistan (Gallup Perception Survey,(2006). It is thus
important to quantify the HR gap within the construction
industry, both in absolute numbers and skills deficiencies
and the gaps in materials and machinery, given the enlarged
infrastructure construction program planned during the next
few years under the MTDF. Have the planners and policy
makers catered for these pre-requisites in the MTDF? This is
the question that the study addresses'. |
