TACLOBAN CITY – The P3.2-million multipurpose building repair/improvement project of the Tacloban City District Engineering Office (TCDEO) for the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Regional Office VIII was completed on December 8, 2024, enhancing the building’s safety, functionality, and aesthetics.
The project was undertaken to address the deteriorating condition of the DBM building. The scope of work included the removal and replacement of the dilapidated ceiling, application of new interior and ceiling paint, installation of steel grills at the ground floor beside the gym area, and application of new roof paint at the roof deck and canopy.
Additional improvements included the fabrication and installation of a new audio room at the second-floor conference area, installation of a new drywall at the roof deck, fabrication of new steel frames and louvers, and the construction of a new roof canopy at the second-floor balcony. Safety measures, such as applying textured anti-slip paint on stair canopies and installing additional lighting fixtures, were also part of the project.
District Engineer Rebecca G. Yuse emphasized the importance of the project in maintaining a safe and functional workspace. “This rehabilitation project was essential in ensuring that this multipurpose building of DBM remains a conducive and secure facility for its personnel and visitors. The improvements have not only enhanced its durability but also provided a more efficient and comfortable working environment,” she stated.
