Lesson
The flexibility of EAL allows the design and monitoring framework (DMF) to be enhanced during implementation. This was not fully maximized in this project. Other than adding project outputs under the additional financing, outcome indicators remained to have attribution issues. Outcome indicators for improved transport infrastructures could have helped provide data to calculate EIRR at completion (para. 13). Quality review, including interdepartmental review at appraisal, can provide guidance in this regard.

Lesson
Projects designed as emergency assistance loan (EAL) require stronger project performance monitoring system (PPMS) to closely monitor progress and achievements. Since EAL is usually designed fast, there is greater chance that project scope, design, and targets are fluid and call for a very robust monitoring system to ensure that baselines and targets are developed and monitored during implementation and at completion. These include a strong support to measure project benefits that are crucial for EIRR calculations.
