Luanda - A computer system called “Mosi” for monitoring public and private construction works, with uniform criteria, was published this Thursday throughthe book “Fiscalização de Empreitadas de Obras Públicas” (Inspection of Public Works Contracts), by engineer António Venâncio.
According to the author, who spoke at the launch of the book - written for professionals supervising construction works - the computer tool will reduce the time it takes to prepare the inspection report, from a week to 15 minutes.
The same computer system, he explained, offers a search framework of interest to the user, providing certain works inspection reports.
Mosi, he added, is used to work with various works and has tools to impose fines on contractors, as well as allowing the insertion of images to illustrate the situations described.
