Delivering 42 water wells 40% faster with streamlined coordination

Duration

24 months

Tanzania Clean Water Initiative (TCWI) manages complex infrastructure projects to bring clean water to remote communities. Drilling 50 water wells across scattered villages requires coordinating site assessments, multiple contractors, equipment suppliers, community engagement, and ongoing maintenance—all with limited communication infrastructure.

The Challenge

With projects spanning hundreds of kilometers, TCWI faced constant coordination challenges. Contractors would arrive at sites without proper equipment, community leaders weren't informed of project timelines, and supply deliveries were frequently delayed. The organization had no centralized way to track which wells were in what stage of development, leading to inefficient resource allocation.

The Solution

TCWI implemented Taskmate to bring structure to their complex operations. They created detailed project workflows for each well, from initial site assessment through drilling, construction, and community training. Every stakeholder—from field engineers to community liaisons to contractors—could see exactly what needed to happen and when.

Implementation

  • Built standardized project templates for well drilling phases
  • Created contractor coordination workflows with automated notifications
  • Established community engagement checklists and timelines
  • Implemented equipment and supply tracking systems
  • Set up maintenance schedules for completed wells

Time Saved

"Managing a project of this scale used to be overwhelming. Taskmate brought clarity and structure, helping us deliver clean water to communities faster than ever before. We went from completing 2-3 wells per month to 4-5, and with fewer coordination problems. The communities can now see our progress in real-time, which has built tremendous trust."
