SMEC's services include: monitoring and evaluating the implementation of all project works; identifying physical, environmental, social and economic impacts; tracking key indicators of the implementation schedule (input, output and outcome); developing a Project Monitoring Information System; implementing and supervising Environmental, Social and Resettlement Action Plans; and introducing an Enterprise Project Management System (EPMS) to manage sub-projects, and provide risk management and performance analysis.
