PLAN PARA LA DIRECCIÓN DEL PROYECTO CONSTRUCCIÓN DE LA FINCA DE BANANO ORGÁNICO “HACIENDA CRISTINA”

Abstract

Bandevelopment S.A. is executing a project to build a 180-hectare organic banana farm located in the city of Machala, Ecuador, with an investment of USD 3.3 million and an execution period of 30 months. This project focuses exclusively on developing the infrastructure necessary for the farm's operation, as a preliminary stage to the planting phase, ensuring operability, sustainability, and competitiveness in international markets. The intervention includes automated irrigation systems, roads, and drainage for efficient circulation, as well as a packing plant with a capacity of eight containers per week, hydraulic works such as reservoirs, spillways, and canals, cableways for internal fruit transport, electrical infrastructure, and a pumping station. The current plan and its management are aligned with PMI standards, integrating plans for scope, time, cost, quality, risks, procurement, and communications, under the direction of Juan José Picón as Project Director. The expected results include infrastructure ready for organic production, export capacity of 8 containers per week, and a scalable design that will allow for future expansion.
