i. Executive Summary
The preliminary survey regarding the customer requirement has been accomplished. Site visit in Addis
Abeba in High rising buildings, Consulting with stake holders such as masonry workers, building
consultants and house owners who are currently building high rising structures. As per the Material
purchase was attempted several times by collecting Performa, but the current market fluctuation has
resulted in the purchase of almost 30% of the materials required for the project.The Manufacturing of the
Plastering machine is on the way according to the proposed milestone the gear box manufacturing has

The first activity is to gain access to raw materials for the manufacturing either utilizing the
purchasing procedure or purchase from my own pocket money because the delay of this
project has been a burden on my shoulder. Next after gaining access the manufacturing of
several parts for the manufacturing of sub-assemblies will be carried out in collaboration
with Debre Birhan TVET, Hibret Manufacturing and Mechanical Department of Debre
Birhan University. Finally, a working Prototype would be Presented to the Debre Birhan
University Community.
4. Major challenges
There is only one major challenge which is the material purchasing procedure. The universities
material purchasing procedure is not permitting to adjust with the current market fluctuation, If
there are methods the university can propose this problem that would be pleasing.
