Trimming 25 Percent in HPS, Not Value Project.

People should not be in a hurry to give relevant conclusions Jakarta Provincial Government plans to cut 25 percent of the budget throughout the working units (SKPD). Because the value of the price cut was not working on a project, but the estimated price alone (HPS) in each project to be undertaken.Head of Jakarta Public Works Department (Head of Jakarta Public Works Department) Basworo Ery said the cuts would not affect all of its programs. Because the budget cuts will only push the platform or the upper limit when it estimates the cost required for a project."Equate first perception, not a budget cut, but the HPS, the platform," said Ery 

More specifically he explains, for example, the estimated price is required to work on a project to Rp 75 million. Therefore, as a governor, he would propose HPS for that purpose. If there is difference in price, be it more or vice versa, he will report to the Governor to avoid things that are not desirable."That's the estimated price. Later in the project could be cheaper or more expensive. But we will report it to the governor," he said.Moreover, he said, the determination of HPS done before Budget is approved. New fresh funds disbursed after the project value is clear and the approval of the Governor. "After all the money was there (governor), not on us," he said.To note, the scheme Jakarta Public Works Department budget for 2013 is estimated at approximately USD 2.5 trillion. The amount is to run a variety of programs and has been tailored to instruction trimming 25 percent of HPS.Jakarta Capital City Government deliberately cut across SKPD HPS to streamline budgets in local treasury. Because most of the city government budget will be distributed to some of the major programs in the sectors of health, education, housing, transportation, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
