There are consultants who have undertaken such assignments on domestic as well as global level. We have worked for PMC and working on more than 450km network for safety assessment.

For consultants operating in other countries it is not a standard practice to have work completion certificates.

Online submission when scanned in original takes a huge space. This original scanned documents cannot be uploaded for online submission because there is a limit of the file size to be uploaded.

This mandate requires Transport planning / Analyst with handy experience in data forecasting, strategic modeling and related data analysis. A Junior Engineer can not justify the delivery of such highly specialized assignments.
