More than half of the ASEAN Member States’ population reside in urban areas and an additional 70 million are forecast to live in ASEAN cities by 2025. While rapid and unplanned urbanization can undermine quality of life, exacerbate inequality, and cause environment stress, it also gives ASEAN’s cities and utilities an opportunity to mitigate the associated risks by capitalizing on the exponential growth of technology.
In total, 26 cities across eight ASEAN countries are participating in the AASCTF program. The main goal of the Fund is to improve the three key functional areas within participating cities in the ASEAN region – Planning, Service Delivery and Financial Management. Across all the Fund’s work lies three important cross-cutting themes that are addressed and embedded within every activity – Gender, Climate Change and Private Sector.
A central activity of the Ramboll Core Team is the identification of entry points and development of Task Orders for city intervention pilot projects (i.e., demonstrations and proof of concepts) focused on innovative smart and digital solutions within select participating cities; the ultimate aim of the pilot projects being to identify scalable and replicable best and next practice smart solutions to be applied within the ASEAN context.

The project site, Khulna – Bangladesh's third-largest city, was highly vulnerable to climate-related risks due to its proximity to the Bay of Bengal. This made it susceptible to the effects of rising sea levels and increasing surges. Khulna experienced frequent flooding and waterlogging, particularly during monsoon season, due to inadequate flood protection and drainage systems. As a result, the daily lives of its citizens were severely disrupted for months each year, and climate change was expected to exacerbate these problems.
To address these challenges, German Development Cooperation, through KfW, supported Bangladesh with an emphasis on Climate Change Adapted Urban Development (CCAUD). These primarily involved investments in urban infrastructures and capacity development. The project was part of CCAUD Phase II, which focused on improving stormwater drainage and flood control.
The consulting service aimed to prepare a Feasibility Study for implementing climate adaptation measures in Khulna City. Work included climate risk, vulnerability, and urban system assessments to identify potential climate-resilient sub-projects. The project focused on urban flood control and protection measures such as drainage system improvement, canal and river rehabilitation, embankment construction, and sluice gate improvement.

From 2009 to 2016, the Asian Development Bank financed a project in Dhaka, Bangladesh, where 95% of existing pipelines and all service connections were to be replaced in the city’s water distribution network (85 DMAs formed and 3.000+ km of pipes and 200.000+ house connections replaced). The project has reduced non-revenue water from 60% to below 10% and ensured a minimum pressure of 1 bar in all system parts 24/7. The project used trenchless technology, Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), and pipe bursting for nearly 90% of the pipe replacement and pipe installation; this ensured less excavation and reduced construction costs, and lessened disturbance to the citizens and local businesses. Furthermore, a design-build and performance-based tender process was successfully used to manage and implement the project relatively quickly.
The Dhaka project has demonstrated in total – and massive scale that it is possible to build a functional distribution system in a challenging environment; using the alternative approach of assessing and re-designing the whole system holistically rather than focusing on solving one problem at a time where the number one problem always will be the inability to bring a sufficient quantity of water to the beneficiaries and the solution is always considered to be the development of more water resources.
The Project also included a Feasibility Study for the 500 MLD Khilkhet WTP, while the total project investment cost was USD 220 Million.

One of the world's biggest and fastest-growing cities, Dhaka, has an estimated population of 16 million with a population density of about 44,000 persons/km2. The water supply system in Dhaka was mainly based on groundwater sources to meet the daily demand. The increased demand and climate change were rapidly lowering Dhaka's groundwater table. The Padma (Jashaldia) Water Treatment Plant was launched to shift from Dhaka’s reliance on groundwater to increased support on surface water and thereby increase the security of supply in the overall water supply of Dhaka.
The project goal was to construct a Water Treatment Plant with a capacity of 450 MLD at Padma (Jashaldia), including a 700 m raw water transmission line (from intake pumping stations to WTP) and a 32 km long treated water transmission line which entailed river crossing at a minimum of three locations.
The consulting services included technical support to DWASA as “Employer’s Representative” in selecting the treatment process, reviewing the design of different project components produced by the contractor, contract management and construction Supervision, and capacity building.

Dhaka was heavily dependent on groundwater sources to meet the daily demand of the growing population. Dhaka Water Supply and Sewerage Authority (DWASA) focused on surface water treatment shifting from an over-exploited groundwater aquifer. However, existing surface waters were of poor quality and deteriorating due to domestic and industrial discharges. Therefore, treating surface waters was an important task to ensure sufficient quality and quantity of water supply. Existing sewerage systems included both conventional and small bore systems that suffered from clogging. Pump stations were operated manually and were not energy efficient.
The project's objective was to improve the sustainable delivery of wastewater and water services by preparing a master plan for the sewerage and wastewater treatment system for Dhaka (population of 16 million).
The consulting services involved the preparation of a master plan to determine the feasibility of priority investments and undertaking the design and preparation of tender documents (World Bank Conditions of Contract) for the construction of priority works, including the construction of new priority works ($52million), and supply and installation of sewerage maintenance equipment (especially sewer cleaning trucks and associated equipment for $1.4million).
