KL MRT Project Start

The Kuala Lumpur MRT project is one of the mega project consuming billion of ringgit. It is divided into different phases and awarded to multiple contractors. It is not known how the award process, whether is a closed tender, on appointment based on specific criteria or open tender. However I personally have not sighted any invitation to offer in the main newspaper.

One of the lucky company AZRB will be starting by this month the viaduct project stretching from Plaza Phoenix to Bandar Tun Razak. This is the sector V6, awarded to Ahmad Zaki Resources, a contract value of RM764.9 mil. It is schedule to be completed by Jun 2016.It will be using the elevated structure along the Cheras-Kajang highway, a distant of about 5.24km.

The project delivery partner is MMC Gamuda. This is a new term, created by the government after in case of consultancy fees paid the a company amounting to about rm500mil for the purchase of the 2 submarines from a French company.

The segment V5 is awarded to IJM, valued at rm974mil to be completed in 43 months. The work involved the construction of viaduct and related works from Maluri to Plaza Pheonix, covering a distant of 5.4 km.

It will for sure a project that will make some people richer.
