After the merger, from July 1 to now, the Management Board has consolidated its organizational structure with 6 professional departments and 18 affiliated public service units. The Management Board is managing 13 projects with a total investment of over 3,358 billion VND. 18 affiliated public service units manage 340 projects with a total investment of nearly 8,344 billion VND.

In 2025, the Management Board was assigned nearly 735 billion VND, 18 affiliated units were assigned over 2,904 billion VND. However, up to now, the disbursement speed of the implementing units is still slow, the disbursement rate is low, only reaching 24.7% for the project management board and 26.57% for affiliated units. In particular, projects using ODA capital with a total investment of more than 6,900 billion VND are still in the preparation stage, many contents are unfinished.

According to the leaders of the Management Board, the above situation is due to the fact that the implementation of projects is facing many difficulties and obstacles, mainly focusing on groups of issues such as: site clearance; difficulties in earth filling materials, capital, and organizational structure.

At the meeting, representatives of the Management Board and related departments, branches and localities focused on carefully analyzing, clearly identifying difficulties and problems and proposing specific solutions.

Concluding the meeting, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Tu Cong Hoang emphasized: Currently, the workload of the Project Management Board and its affiliated units is quite large and still cumbersome. Therefore, it is recommended that the unit urgently coordinate with the Department of Home Affairs to redefine the organizational structure, functions, and tasks and submit them to the Provincial People's Committee for consideration to quickly complete and improve operational efficiency.

Regarding the difficulties and problems that units and localities are facing in the process of implementing public investment projects, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee has given suggestions, directions and instructions for specific solutions.

In particular, regarding capital sources, it is recommended that the Management Board, relevant departments, branches and localities discuss and agree on specific solutions for each project; clearly identify the list of projects that need to be brought to the province for management, projects brought to the commune for management to be submitted at the upcoming sessions of the Provincial People's Council for approval and urgent implementation in the second half of 2025; at the same time, it is necessary to be flexible in adjusting the investment capital plan as well as proposing to use the province's capital sources to remove capital difficulties in implementing the projects.

The Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee emphasized: In addition to speeding up the implementation progress, units and localities also need to ensure the quality of the works and identify this as a key factor in implementing public investment projects.

Assigning specific tasks to departments and branches, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee noted the need to flexibly choose more superior policies between the two provinces of Gia Lai (old) and Binh Dinh (old) to apply in the spirit of implementing whatever is beneficial to the people, the locality, and the country.

Emphasizing the importance of the public investment sector and considering it an important driving force for the province's economic growth, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee said: In the near future, the province will assign specific and detailed targets to the communes and wards in the West of the province, including targets for site clearance and public investment disbursement... Therefore, the Management Board, departments, branches and localities need to be urgent and determined in implementing them.

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Tu Cong Hoang emphasized: Gia Lai province does not distinguish between localities of the old province and the new province and will always accompany in the implementation process. Therefore, units and localities need to be assured and focused to carry out the assigned tasks. In the implementation process, if there are any difficulties or problems, they need to be promptly reported and proposed to the Provincial People's Committee for timely support and guidance, determined to disburse 100% of the public investment plan in 2025.
