CIAP Decentralizes Evaluation of Contractor's License in the Visayas

The Philippine Contractor's Accreditation Board (PCAB) of the Construction Industry Authority of the Philippine (CIAP), an attached agency of the Department of Trade and Industry has come up with an innovative and efficient way to serve its stakeholders in the Visayas by decentralizing the evaluation of Contractor's License through the CIAP Window in Cebu effective this year 2018.

CIAP's Window Cebu services include pre-screening and evaluation of application for a contractor's license; acceptance of complaints or cases, staff logistics, coordination support during hearings and orientation on mediation for small claims and information dissemination and promotion, acceptance of new and renewal application prior to registration/ authorization.

The decentralization of the evaluation process aims to provide more access and faster transaction of the contractors from region 7 to easily avail of the service. Through this facility the contractors from different provinces of Central Visayas need not travel to Manila to Transact business, thus, saving time and reducing cost of doing business.

For the period January to March 2018, 215 applications were evaluated and forwarded to CIAP Makati for approval. This is a 51% percent increase compared to January- March 2017.   About 68% (146/215) of the applications were approved while 32% or 69 applications are still in process.  All applications filed in January and February 2018 were already approved but there are still pending applications for the month of March 2018.

Meanwhile, the construction industry in Central Visayas is expected to grow further in the next four years as the Philippine industry is driven largely by the residential and the infrastructure markets.

The infrastructure market is said to be the fastest-growing sector in the construction industry, with growth rate driven by Philippine government plans to develop high-speed rail links, highways and seaports through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs).

To boost construction activities further, the Department of Trade and Industry – Construction Industry Authority of the Philippines (DTI-CIAP) lead the creation of the country's construction roadmap during the 2nd Philippine Construction Congress at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) held last year.

The Philippine Construction Congress united the country's key industry players and laid out the conceptual framework in drafting the Philippines' Construction Industry Roadmap for 2017-2022, anchored on the infrastructure projects under the Duterte administration's "Build. Build. Build" program.

Aside from creating a road map, the Philippine Construction Congress  streamlined public and private efforts to come up with lucrative public-private partnerships and augment the government's vision of the Build, Build, Build program to increase the productive capacity of the economy, create jobs, increase incomes and strengthen the investment climate leading to sustained inclusive growth.

Infrastructure is among the top priorities of the current administration. In his 10-point Socioeconomic Agenda, President Duterte envisioned the reduction of poverty from 21.6 percent in 2015 to between 13 percent and 15 percent by 2022.

Among the reforms that will drive this agenda is the acceleration of infrastructure and the development of industries that will yield robust growth across the archipelago, create jobs and uplift the lives of Filipinos.

In 2016, the share of the construction industry to total employment of the country stood at 8.2 percent. In Central Visayas the share of construction industry to total employment is 7.3 percent.

The Philippine construction industry expanded its work force by 675,000 last year—equivalent to the combined employment generated from 2011 to 2015—to end at 3.3 million in 2016. The industry is expected to employ 5.8 million workers by 2022.

Data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed major drivers of the country's economic growth in 2016 were the accelerated performances of the industry and service sectors. PSA data indicated the growth in the industry sector was due in part to the robust performance of the construction industry. (ends)

"We are positive that we will continue to drive growth and recovery for the export sector as we increase our efforts in promoting Philippine industries throughout the year in various key markets. We take the consistent growth since the last quarter of 2016 as a sign for positive outlook in the coming months," said DTI Industry Promotion Group Undersecretary Nora K. Terrado.

Eight out of the top ten Philippine exports reflected growth with articles of apparel and clothing accessories with 270.1% increase as the highest gainer. Other gainers include: coconut oil includes oil and refined (229.6%), chemicals (104.7%), metal components (66.3%), electronic equipment and parts (64.8%), other manufactures (58.8%), machinery and transport equipment (27.9%), and electronic products (10.4%).

Electronic products remain to be the top Philippine export comprising almost 46 percent of the total Philippine exports with total receipts of $2.365 billion for January. On the other hand, non-electronic goods which accounts for 54 percent of exports likewise increased by a hefty 35.19% for that same month.

In terms of commodity groups, manufactured goods went up by 23.1 percent with total export sales of $4.505 billion, accounting for 87.8 percent of the total export receipts while exports from Total Agro-Based Products, with a 7.5 percent share to total exports in January 2017, amounted to $386.46 million.

By economic bloc, exports to European Union member countries posted the highest growth with 82.5 percent increase from $491.34 million recorded in January 2016 to $896.69 million for the same period in 2017.

]"The increase in our shipments to European Union member countries could be attributed to the impact of EU GSP+ which continues to gain traction for our exports. We wish to further build on this by integrating new strategic measures in promoting the Philippines and our products and services," explained Undersecretary Terrado.

On the other hand, countries in East Asia received most of Philippine exports accounting for 45.1 percent share to total exports valued at $2.315 billion. It increased by 11.1 percent from $2.085 billion of January 2016.
