ROADS AND BRIDGES
To further improve the maintenance service delivery to the public and with the preservation
of government infrastructure assets being one of the main thrusts of the Department, the
herein Policy Guidelines on the Maintenance of National Roads and Bridges is hereby
prescribed for compliance of all concerned.
This Order includes provisions on the imposition of sanctions to erring DPWH officials found
to have been continually remiss in providing not only the requisite maintenance action/s as
regards the prescribed response time on defects/distresses noted along our road section,
but likewise in failing to constantly assure the highest quality of maintenance works
adopting compliance to existing maintenance policies and standards.
This Department Order shall take effect immediately and shall supersede:
1) Department Order No. 13, s. 2011: ''Revised Guidelines in the Maintenance of National
H
Roads and Bridges ;
2) Department Order No. 179 s. 1997: ''Revised Guidelines of Inspection to Rate the
Physical Condition of National Roads and Bridges"; and,
3) Department Order No. 31, s. 2000: "Guidelines for the Imposition of Administrative
Sanctions to Regional/District Technical Personnel Involved in the Defective
Implementation of Maintenance Activities for National Roads and Bridges'~

CAUBRATED SANCTIONS
(REWARD AND SANCllON MECHANISMS)
Attached under Annex "3-A" is an illustrative sample on how the point system works/is
calculated.
Although the schedule of sanctions was patterned after the relevant provisions of the
December 2011 Revised Rules on Administrative Cases in the Civil Service (RRACCS),the
inclusion of an issuance of WARNING was inserted under this Order to provide the
concerned officials the option/chance to further correct his actions. A repeat of the
offensive action shall be covered by the Schedule of Penalties under the relevant provisions
of the RRACS.
Sanction/Penalties shall be issued to either the Official who was reinstated after serving the
suspension or to his replacement. If the official suspended is transferred during the
pendency of his/her suspension, such suspension shall nonetheless still be in effect.
2nd Offense: SUSPENSIONfor one (1) month and one day, if a repeat of the
above-mentioned offense was committed.
1st Offense: WARNING shall be issued to the DME if the percentage points

Step 1: Response time needed in the calculation will be computed by getting the difference of
end date of inspection from the start of validation.
Response lime, RT = number of days between the end date of inspection and start
of validation
Step 2: From the total quantity of each accomplished defect indicated in the BOM-MPP-VAL
(Form MP-2), prepared by the concerned technical personnel from the BOM during the
assessment period, will be the basis for getting the Summaiy of Actual Output per day.
Computation:
Actual Output per day (OUTPUT I DAY) = Val: Quantity of Defects
Response Time (1)

Note: The defect per day will not be computed for codes already 100% rectified upon
validation. Likewise, this applies for codes with no noted defects/deficiencies during
inspection.
Step 3: lime needed in the calculation will be computed by getting the difference of the
issued date of justification letter from the end date of validation minus 5 days. Illustrative
sample are as follows:
