Pros and Cons Pros: Actions in traffic safety improvement by ERA and ARK have merged We have much more technological solutions than we had before Support services are consolidated (finance and personal management) Even thou ERA merged into one organisation and has one central management we have retained considerable local management all over the contry Merged organisation has better tools to work as a whole (human, road, vehicle) Cons: The legislation of public procurement allows companies to slow down the process Financement of the road sector is unstable The cost of basic materials have beed changing a lot during economic changes Due dates doesn t consider seasonal and technological pauses In bigger towns ERA should take part in building the main roads Merger of the organisations hasn t gone as excpected different groups remained
Challenges (construction) EU funded contracts completion (start in 2009/2010) Sharing input costs risks in following contracts Lawyers costruct the roads need to go through all regulations Prevention of the new boom
