Afghan National Police Womens Compound at the Jalalabad Regional Training Center: Construction Generally Met Contract Requirements, but Fire- Related Deficiencies Pose Safety Hazards and the Almost $6.7 Million Facility Has Never Been Used
Abstract
This report discusses the results of SIGARs inspection of the Afghan National Police (ANP) womens compound at the Jalalabad Regional Training Center (RTC). On September 2, 2015, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) awarded an almost $5.7 million firm-fixed-price contract to Gurbat Daryabi Construction Company (GDC) to design and construct the compound. The contract required GDC to design and construct a womens compound adjacent to the existing mens compound to accommodate and train up to 300 female students. The contract required GDC to construct multiple structures, such as classrooms, barracks, a dining facility (DFAC), a medical clinic, and a perimeter wall separating the womens and mens compounds. USACE modified the contract five times, increasing the contracts value to almost $6.7 million. On June 9, 2017, the Combined Security Transition CommandAfghanistan (CSTC-A) transferred the completed facilities to the Afghan Ministry of Interior (MOI).
