    components of equipment & plants. This will enable the organizations to be structured and assign technicians accordingly. The maintenance scope of the project workshops, mainly in road construction project workshops, will be limited to routine services, adjustments in place, replacement of parts authorized to be stocked by the project warehouse. Major repair activities like component over haul, modifications and rebuilding of components are mainly assigned to the Central Equipment Maintenance Team in Addis Ababa & somehow in Road Maintenance Repair Workshops.
