An additional lesson is that if the executing agency’s limited relevant experience of project design and implementation is known at the outset at the project design stage (i.e., as confirmed in the risk assessment), it is necessary to design appropriate mitigation strategies. These could include the following: (i) design smaller pilot projects to gain experience before larger projects are tackled; or (ii) make significant consultant support available in the early stages of implementation to strengthen capacity and ensure timely implementation.

Lesson
Installation of project management at a very high level with the President’s office as executing agency and the deputy prime minister as project coordinator facilitated the success of the project. With such high level management support, the adoption of key policy recommendations and implementation of essential reform packages had a much better chance of being acted upon more quickly than if it were anchored on a weak ministry that still needed reform and strengthening.

While most if not all projects have excellent and even noble intentions and objectives and are extremely relevant to existing problems in the countries they are proposed for, these projects have to be realistic and must be designed considering the inherent problems and issues pertaining to the sector, country, or areas where they will be implemented.
