·         Why the adjustment?

 

-         Differences between planning phase and construction phase.

 

­          Construction programmes of host cities took off faster than anticipated.

 

­          "Higher burn rate" leading to actual cash-flows demands being higher at project conception

 

·         Key procurement decisions made and to tie suppliers to particular prices.

 

·         Material availability - endeavour to complete construction ahead of schedule, wherever possible.

 

·         Limit cost escalations.

 

·         Deal with lead times.

 

THANK YOU
