3.     Project design and delivery

The project delivery section is being impacted by unplanned staff leave and the secondment of
the Project Delivery Coordinator to the Transport Strategy. These resourcing impacts are
delaying the tender, contracting and delivery of projects to be delivered in the 2018/19 Capital
Program.

Design and Delivery staff will forward plan for project adjustments in the second budget review of
the Capital Program. This will assist Council to have a realistic approach to the successful
delivery of the Program for the remainder of the 2018/19 financial year.

Summary

The current capital delivery expenditure to 30 September 2018 including actuals and
commitments is $18.1m or 58% of the Capital Program. The delivery and completion of projects
continues across the Program with staffing resources to be allocated in the coming months to
support the design and delivery phases of the projects.

The Program is currently behind schedule for the year to date budget of $10.7m, with year to
date actual expenditure of $7.6m to 30 September 2018. Increased monitoring across all projects
will be required for the remainder of the financial year with proposed adjustments to the delivery
timeframes to be considered during future budget review processes.
