Defenders of her pretty-faced highness,your queen needs your services here.

@A4architect,

I normally reserve a lot of respect and reputation points when you discuss issues construction., but when you misrepresent facts I start scratching and asking myself difficult questions...as professionals we have a duty higher than the next pedestrian on the street (with respect) to be honest to our calling and utter the truth, the whole truth objectively at all times and God help us.

while appreciating that you have brought this discussion here and copy pasted from where you started it...

===> ulianzia hapa mikate

1. i ask you to take time and read the Public Procurement and Disposal Act 2005

2. Go through the standard bidding documents

3. Try and understand how public procurement is initiated and approved and the role of the CEO

4. Go through your posts hapo mikate* and use a truthmeter to evaluate your pronouncements. Am reading them and comparing them with the applicable laws and will come back to discuss and also consulting other experts since am not a know it all.

P.S. nothing personal just wazualing

For the record Shollei does not have to be the CRJ but let us go on the record for firing her for the right reasons and with proper evidence and due process and set the right precedence.

Let us not make it impossible for the next CRJ and othe GoK CEOs (see my other thread) to run business and deliver services...

the more we share the more we learn

@siringi, or are you saying that the JSC should blame the procurement commitee instead? According to shollei, in her answers to the allegations, she is wrong to defend herself by stating that valuations and architectural services were offered by JKUCAT enterprises ltd.
Maybe her tender committee wrongly made her beleive that its possible but i can state to you and quote the exact laws as to why she is wrong in using JKUCAT enterprises as a defence mechanism.

Check cap 525 here and tell me whether JKUCAT enterprises can fit within this law.

Check on valuation licencing laws here and tell me whether JKUCAT enterprises ltd can even imagine to qualify.

@A4architect,

We need to isolate fact from opinion.

Let us start with your arguements in Nipate ===> here:

1. Your beef was that she is engaging other cheaper services from government institutions which are cheaper and undercut the proffessionals in the market right? at least that is where you started;

So those services offered by UNES (University of Nairobi Enterprise Services - to public entities )and i dont want to list them should be discontinued because there are many professionals out there who can offer the same services at a higher fee and promote the economy right?

sorry i did not attend economics for dummies

I do not want to list how many universities, colleges and government research and service institutions / department offer services on a government to government basis without having to undergo the rigors of tendering. yet similar services are offered by professionals or are your professionals special, vets should be up in arms againsy Upper Kabete Campus and Egerton/ AHITI or KARI etc
Doctors should be up against UoN , Moi Uni, KU etc

technical university i saw them repairing street lights for government institutions to electrical Engineers ought to riot no?

2. Valuation Services: I stand guided but having read the charges and the answers, the valuation in question is not valuation for ascertain market value of asset eg houses which is governed by the Valuers Act
We are talking about preparation of architectural Drawings and specifications, preparation of Bills of quantities and issuance of interim certificates.

in practice most of this kind of work is done even by artisans/ technicians, QSs (trust me on this one and dont even debate) we dont have enough architects to go round even staff at Public Works whom you praise are HnDs and regular diplomas and artisans

My question to you Which standard bidding documents among those listed ===>did she fail to use?

which among the eight or so prescribed procurement methods did she fail to use

3. Knowing public procurement the way you claim to know it, there must be a user department at the judiciary that planned the works, prepared the specifications, the procurement department invited tenders or otherwise failed to , some committee evaluated the tenders, another one awarded etc

why are we not smoking the whole chain out and singling GBS

How safe is the nect CRJ? that is the subject of my other thread

Without fear or prejudice

I have noted that this Siringi guy had really tried to tetea Shollei and I am wondering if understood the JSC report. I am an accountant although I currently do other things and have work with organizations which have respect for accounting, procurement, administration and human resources procedures in an organisation.

I read the report by the JSC and wondered if Shollei had any basic management training. I have high regard to lawyers but I even wondered what kind of a lawyer would be caught with those things.

The issues raised in that report show s that the person being accused in corrupt or just plain incompetent. Actually, I am in agreement with Abdullahi that someone should be taken to court
