Public Finance Management Reform Project

PFMR is multifaceted and requires sufficient time to implement. Supporting TA and project implementation should go hand in hand. The PMO was established to manage the procurement process with TA support. However, central treasury staff had to carry out both project-specific tasks and their day-to-day functions. This led to competing priorities between their own jobs and project requirements, and delays in dealing with project issues. It is essential for implementing staff to adequately apportion their time between the requirements of the project and their day-to-day activities.
