Nabilatuk District in Uganda faced significant challenges with water scarcity and inadequate sanitation. To address these issues, the local government launched a strategic initiative targeting two key Rural Growth Centres (RGCs): the District Headquarters and Lolachat Subcounty in Lokitela and Trade Center West villages. Driven by rapid population growth and rising demand for clean water, the district allocated funds from both Central Government and donor sources to improve water supply and sanitation infrastructure in these underserved areas. The project focused on expanding access to piped water, enhancing sanitation infrastructure, embracing innovative water treatment technologies, and protecting water sources through catchment protection measures. On December 15th, 2023, Nabilatuk District partnered with SADRiNE Infrastructure Services (SID) Limited to conduct comprehensive feasibility studies and develop detailed designs for the water supply systems, laying the groundwork for the construction phase.
The assignment aimed to undertake a feasibility study, detailed designs, and preparation of tender documents for constructing water supply systems in Nabilatuk District Headquarters and Lolachat Subcounty. The project sought to improve socio-economic conditions by providing safe, reliable water supply and sanitation facilities, thereby reducing waterborne diseases and empowering communities. The scope included assessing water demand, conducting hydrogeological investigations, designing water supply and sanitation systems, and preparing engineering and environmental reports. This initiative also emphasized the use of renewable energy and ecological sanitation technologies, aiming to contribute to environmental protection and address gender issues by involving both sexes as decision-makers.

Following the successful implementation of the first phase of the Uganda Support to Municipal Infrastructure Development (USMID) Program, the Government of Uganda, with additional financing from the World Bank/IDA, embarked on the second phase of the USMID-AF Program. This five-year initiative aimed to bolster urban infrastructure investments, strengthen the institutional capacities of municipal Local Governments (LGs) and the Ministry of Lands, Housing, and Urban Development (MoLHUD), and support refugee-hosting local governments. The goal was to enhance the capabilities of local governments to manage refugee influxes and provide critical infrastructure to drive local economic development.
The interventions were designed to reduce vulnerability, build resilience, and improve the interaction and coexistence between refugees and host communities by delivering essential infrastructure and services. The specific objective of this assignment was to develop integrated physical development plans for Arua, Terego and Madi-Okollo districts. These plans incorporated socio-economic development proposals and ensured comprehensive stakeholder engagement throughout the planning process, aligning with the broader goals of sustainable development and community integration.

Aswa – Lolim Hydro Power Company Ltd (ALHC), primarily owned by East African Power (EAP), is developing the Latoro Small Hydro Power Project, a medium flow and medium head scheme of approximately 4.8 MW in northern Uganda. To support this initiative, ALHC contracted SADRiNE Consulting Group Limited to undertake detailed geotechnical studies. The field investigations, carried out from October 24th to October 29th, 2021, involved comprehensive surface and subsurface explorations, culminating in a report that includes geotechnical recommendations for suitable foundations, slope stability, earthwork, and drainage designs.
Supervised by Samuel Jjuuko and Evelyn Lydah Awori, the study included hydrogeological, geomorphological, geological, and seismological investigations. These efforts provided critical insights into the site’s physical, chemical, and engineering properties, ensuring that the design and construction of the Latoro Small Hydro Power Project meet the required technical and sustainability standards. The findings were documented in a detailed report to guide the project’s development and implementation.

As global industrial and economic development accelerates, the demand for construction materials, such as crushed stones and aggregates, has surged, driving the growth of the quarry industry. To ensure the financial viability of quarry operations, it is crucial to understand the challenges of both pre-production and production periods and to apply established geological, geotechnical, and technical factors. These measures can save operators significant time and money. In this context, M/S AKOL HOLDINGS LIMITED engaged SADRiNE Consulting Group Limited to perform a geotechnical investigation on a proposed quarry rock site in Lira District. The field studies were conducted from August 9th to August 12th, 2022, followed by laboratory testing and report writing.
The investigation aimed to determine the suitability of the quarry rock for use as construction material. It involved core drilling at five locations, laboratory testing of recovered rock samples, and producing a detailed geotechnical investigation report. The findings provided essential insights into the physical and engineering properties of the rock, facilitating informed decision-making for the project’s development.

Pagada Bridge, located along the Aswa River in Lamwo District, Uganda, is a critical infrastructure connecting the sub-counties of Lokung and Palabek Kal. The previous 30-meter-long concrete bridge, constructed by the Lamwo District Local Government in 2017/2018, collapsed in August 2018 due to heavy truck loads, disrupting the movement of people and goods. To address this, M/S KWED Construction Ltd contracted SADRiNE Infrastructure Services (SID) Limited to conduct geotechnical investigations at the proposed construction site to facilitate the design of appropriate foundations and earthworks.
