As a result of the devastation caused by rains and floods in the northern regions of La Libertad, Tumbes, Piura and Lambayeque, Government of Dina Boluarte announced the creation of the National Infrastructure Administration to replace Authority for Reconstruction with Changes (ARCC)an institution that was questioned for not prioritizing preventive work before natural phenomena.

Cabinet chief Alberto Otarola did not rule out that the new powers are a preliminary step towards the creation of an infrastructure ministry.

In this regard, the National Dean of the College of Engineering, Maria del Carmen Poncewelcomed the possibility of establishing a ministry dealing with the infrastructure sector. In addition, he stressed the need for greater participation of engineers in “projects developed by the state.”

“If the Government creates a ministry in which we can participate and have a technical opinion, it will be very good, because we have representation in all regions through departmental councils, with all specialists who have been trained in their regions and who know the reality of his city,” – he said.

“As representatives of engineers, we are all always concerned that we be given the opportunity to intervene in government development projects, participating with opinions from the beginning of the project to the end,” he added.

The Importance of Technical Opinions

Besides, pons stated that since then College of Engineers may also contribute intergovernmental agreementsthrough opinions and technical criteria, which he believes will help make technical specifications transparent in the bidding processes.

“We have to participate in a kind of control. For this we are trained as technicians in our various specialties. There is experience, and for this, the participation of national technical specialists is important,” he said.

That is what the president of the Institute for Freedom and Democracy (ILD), Hernando de Soto, pointed out. lack of transparency was one of the factors hindering the development of great works infrastructure.

“What is needed now is a seat in the state that is not in charge of a regional governor, but has the technical qualifications to ensure tender transparency, provide missing technicians, and a place where there is oversight. “, – commented the ex-presidential candidate.
