World Bank contract 1747629 identifies Rayman Builders Inc. under PH-DPWH-335435-CW-RFB for Libertad Outfall dredging in Pasay City. The 6 October 2023 signature committed USD 1,071,323.19. The Philippines Commission on Audit identifies DPWH contract 22Z00033, a PHP 60,832,909.64 contract cost and PHP 60,664,706.63 in construction in progress at 31 December 2024. A November-December 2025 World Bank mission later reported all eight DPWH dredging contracts completed. Libertad's measured volume, sediment destination, as-built geometry, hydraulic clearance and DPWH acceptance remain unpublished.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Philippines Department of Public Works and Highways under the Metro Manila Flood Management Project
Delivery parties
Rayman Builders Inc. - works contractor under PH-DPWH-335435-CW-RFB, Dredging plant owner, hydrographic surveyor, sediment transport or disposal provider, laboratory and acceptance authority - not identified in the cited contract record
Contract route
The procurement plan records a post-review open-national Request for Bids, USD 1,097,356 estimate and Signed state. World Bank contract 1747629 gives the 6 October 2023 signature and USD 1,071,323.19 commitment. The audit identifies DPWH contract 22Z00033 at PHP 60,832,909.64. Bids, quantities, variations and final account remain unpublished.
Execution window
The procurement-plan sequence carried 27 January 2024 as planned contract completion. The November-December 2025 World Bank mission later reported all eight DPWH dredging contracts completed, but did not publish Libertad's actual start or finish date, completion certificate or acceptance date. The parent project remains active through 30 November 2026 for wider pumping-station, drainage, safeguards and solid-waste activities.
Works package
The public title identifies dredging works at Libertad Outfall, Pasay City. The cited records do not disclose design depth, width, length, target volume, sediment classification, dredging method, disposal route, hydraulic acceptance criteria or interface boundaries with the separately procured Libertad Pumping Station improvements.
Marine interfaces
This is an urban tidal-outfall package where constrained access, flood-season readiness, utilities, traffic, debris, sediment quality, tide windows and downstream water quality can control production. Closeout requires measured quantities, disposal records, as-built section or bathymetry, hydraulic clearance and owner acceptance rather than a programme-wide cleaned-waterways total.
Commercial evidence boundary
The World Bank's USD 1,071,323.19 commitment and the audit's PHP 60,832,909.64 contract cost use different reporting currencies and are not a reconciled final account. The PHP 60,664,706.63 construction-in-progress balance at 31 December 2024 does not establish final payment, savings, acceptance or unchanged scope. Quantities, disposal charges, delay, variation and retention remain unpublished.
