Improving Material Management at the Water Authority of Beirut

Status :   Completed
Cost :  

Euro 127,500 (approximate)

Source of Fund :   European Union (EU)
Scope :  
The developed action plan addresses the complex issue of modernizing and improving the management of material. It includes the development of a stock management information system, capacity building and training in the areas of PC literacy, specialized IT training on the developed system, and training on accounting principles and warehouse management.
The action plan also calls for providing the warehouses and accounting units with the necessary software and hardware equipment. The specialized software will allow the Material Accounting Service to have instant information on the stock level of each of the items available at WAB and to be able to predict any forthcoming shortage in any item. Also the system will allow an accurate account of materials on hand and prevent redundancy and wastage.
The Water Authority of Beirut (WAB) has a large number of material and equipment stored in seven large warehouses throughout the Beirut area. Due to the absence of modern means to manage and monitor these warehouses, WAB has had difficulties keeping timely track of it stock. This situation has resulted in confusion and delays in supplying the various work sites, particularly in times of emergency repairs, as well as considerable waste and redundancy.
