INTRODUCTION
1.1
Background Fresh Life Construction Company was incorporated on September 2023 under the
Companies Act CAP 486 as a private company limited by shares. It operated and it’s still
operating as independent company. With devolution, the ownership structure can’t be changed in
any way nor means.
1.2
Fresh Life Construction Company has been successful in fulfilling its role, the foremost
challenge has been over-reliance on government and donor support for capital intensive projects,
which has presented special sustainability challenges. This poses further challenges of generating
enough revenue to run its own programmers, severe competition from other service providers
and lack of staff capacity to implement the Company strategies.
The above challenges notwithstanding, the Company has several strengths that could be
exploited to improve performance in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. The Company has
established its presence in Nairobi and its environs, and has great potential to expand to the
neighboring regions. The main focus of the Company will be the key customers (corporate or
institutional clients); ensuring that the company services remain unique and relevant to their
needs. There exists a niche in the market that the company is yet to exploit, demanding a clear
agenda to set a new strategic direction for its operations and activities. This business plan has
been informed by a number of key factors inter alia the consultative meetings between the
Consultants and the Management team. The following issues have greatly influenced the
foundation upon which this plan is founded.
Our management is committed to work towards self-reliance and commercializing its functions,
sometimes outsourcing other providers. This would address the following problems, among
others:
Loss of customers due to alternative water sources.
Low revenue growth due to non-cost recovery tariff.
Sustenance of low non-revenue water levels
Sustaining the maintenance cost of the ageing infrastructure.
Under capacity sewer network that keeps on blocking.
Public perception that water provision should be a free service;
Financial constraints to undertake expansion programs both on sewer and water through
internally generated funds due to non- gazzettement of new Tariffs;
