Lesson
A program's design and monitoring framework (DMF) needs to be agile and flexible. A key aspect of a crisis is that it rapidly evolves and at the outset more is often unknown than known. The DMF therefore needs to be realistic and subject to change when new evidence emerges, or the context evolves. Hence, during the implementation and monitoring of the program, the DMF should be revisited and updated as needed.

Inavailability of data could hinder the achievement of a project's intended results. While gender data was available in major programs like the Emergency Subsidy Program, such data was unavailable for others. Of the six outputs in the gender monitoring matrix, two were not achieved as the following data were unavailable: (i) the number of micro, small, and medium enterprise beneficiaries under the small business wage subsidy program and those registered to women; and (ii) thenumber of micro, small, and medium enterprises that benefited from tax relief and those registered to women

The absence of a project performance management system (PPMS) could create difficulties in providing basis for the estimation of a project’s economic benefits. Therefore, a well-functioning PPMS helps provide data for more accurate EIRR estimates and the development impacts of road projects.

Lesson
Greater effort early on to define targeted outcomes and using a well-structured framework can yield a better tool to assess program results. The results framework presenting clarity in project design, well-defined outcomes, and outputs with appropriate targets and indicators, is imperative in monitoring project achievements. This is necessary to help provide clear assessment and guidance on how to systematically track progress especially on how success will be assessed.

Lesson
Output performance measures of public sector and management programs could be improved through the inclusion of (1) anti-corruption measures, especially if the risk of corruption is high in the program and the country rates poorly on perceptions of corruption; and (2) strengthened internal and external audit functions to provide more transparency and accountability to government processes.
