Lesson
Appropriate metrics need to be ensured for each level of the results chain. The output indicators measured outcomes or benefits rather than the physical interventions contracted. That impacted the measurement of output performance during implementation.

Lesson
The establishment of a project performance management system (PPMS), which was not covenanted in the grant agreement, could have provided a useful source of data on which to develop an economic analysis model; identify, quantify, and value economic benefits; and assess the efficiency of the project. Because of the emergency nature of the project, baseline data could be collected during project implementation to enable data comparison after project completion.

Lesson
Design and monitoring frameworks (DMFs) for emergency assistance-type projects could be better designed with a focus on project outcome targets instead of project outputs. The latter are difficult to determine because of insufficient time to detail specific equipment requirements. Streamlining DMFs by avoiding repetition of indicators will also help in focusing the DMF.

Lesson
For a sector such as ICT, with limited skills, expertise, and private sector involvement especially in a small country, project financing provides an opportunity for development banks, such as ADB, to leverage its development objectives. These include promoting private sector participation, improving public service delivery, and strengthening institutions. Infrastructure projects are only a means to achieve development outcomes and impacts. This is a principle that most infrastructure project designs could be based on.

Lesson
When doing the design and monitoring framework (DMF) exercise, outcomes should describe the immediate and direct benefits of the project. Outcome statements articulate the change the project is expected to achieve—in this case, the management of in-migration. No separate outcome statement or concept was included in the DMF.

Lesson
The DMF targets need to be project related. It used a target for impact indicator that linked project output to government revenue. While it is possible to reasonably forecast results, the government revenue may change for reasons unrelated to the project or the sector, as seen in this case.
