Since then, SMEC has worked on a range of projects throughout Kazakhstan including: construction of rural water supply systems in the Karaganda Oblast region; irrigation and drainage improvement in the Syr Darya Basin; rehabilitation of Almaty-Gulshad Road; and the upgrade and reconstruction of three sections of highway between Taraz and Korday in Zhambyl Oblast.
More recently, SMEC has been engaged to provide construction supervision services for the rehabilitation of a 38 km section of the Shymkent-Tashkent roadway, as part of the Central Asia Regional Economic Corporation (CAREC) Corridor 3 project.
Spanning approximately 105,000ha, Kazakhstan’s second Irrigation and Drainage Improvement Project (IDIP) will improve supply conditions for approximately 10,000 farms. SMEC has provided technical supervision to contractors delivering the program. The team has developed an interactive Project Management Information System (PMIS) which includes visual GIS maps to improve stakeholder communication and reporting. SMEC is also leading capacity building for farm managers and asset owners to support efficient operation and maintenance.
