What we're building
Three deliverables. One handover.
The IMME Project transfers Korean expressway practice into Ugandan ownership through three intertwined outputs that arrive together at the April 2026 handover.
Expressway Integrated Manuals
A single lifecycle-oriented manual system covering Planning, Design, Construction Management, Operation, and Maintenance — localized for Uganda's laws, institutions, and projects.
Learn moreBridge Management System (BMS)
A digital BMS piloted on four bridges on the Kampala–Entebbe Expressway, linking inspection data to maintenance planning.
Learn moreCapacity Building
Two Korea Invitation Programs, three Technical Workshops in Uganda, and six months of On-the-Job Training to ensure MoWT can own and sustain the manuals.
Learn moreOur development strategy
Four pillars that keep the manuals usable, not shelved.
- 1
Localization
Aligned with Uganda's institutions, laws, and ongoing projects.
- 2
Applicability
Detailed procedures usable in real workflows, not theoretical.
- 3
Consistency
Unified format across all six manual types.
- 4
Searchability
Coded items, pictorial illustration, smartphone-ready.
