A decisive step has been taken to improve urban sanitation in the capital. The Ministry of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (MEAH), the Urban Municipality of Antananarivo, the Municipal Sanitation Company (SMA) and the Japan International Cooperation Agency recently jointly organized the second workshop on achievements of the GESDA project. The meeting highlighted major results from the sub-component dedicated to equipment maintenance and management. Over four years of technical partnership, Japanese specialists and SMA teams combined their efforts to fundamentally restructure the vehicle fleet maintenance system. This collaboration bore fruit by modernizing the central garage facilities and equipping mechanics with high-performance individual tools. The integration of digital technologies represents a major advance, notably through the implementation of a cloud-based inspection system and a dashboard facilitating daily vehicle monitoring. Results One of the most significant impacts of this rationalization lies in optimizing energy resources. Strict application of pre-departure checks and rigorous fuel management generated savings estimated at approximately 1,000 liters per day. Road safety was also strengthened through systematic incident analysis to increase prevention in the field. As the GESDA project approaches completion, stakeholders are actively preparing the transition through a multi-year action plan covering the period 2027 to 2032. Operating guides provided will ensure continuity of these quality standards within the SMA.
