System Improvement - Powers required . • After initial inclusion of works in PWP , power to engage agency for detailed survey, designing, consultancy, preparation of plans, estimate and detailed project report should be given at the level of JA Grade officer without finance vetting & without annual ceiling limit. This should be similar to power of calling quotations.
