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.

Lesson
In designing the desired outputs that are linked to higher-level results, it is important to be consistent within particular operations and across operations that form the program.

Project Number: 36172-063
Project Name: Strengthening Public Management Program
Report Date:
Lesson
The DMF was reasonably well-designed and the performance indicators—with the exception of the initial program impact indicators—targets, and baseline data were precise and generally easily measurable. However, the PCR assessed the program against the DMF prepared for subprogram 3, which, like subprogram 2 had no indicators to measure impact, although these were included for subprogram 1.

Project Name: Improving Domestic Resource Mobilization for Inclusive Growth Program

Lesson
ADB’s policy on risk assessment and risk management should be reviewed to allow for a consistent approach within projects, programs, or even across subprograms. Risk assessment is often carried out by considering a matrix of likelihood and consequential severity to define the level of risk (individually and overall) before and after the controls or mitigation strategies are in place. The PCR template should also allow for discussion on risk to explicitly consider whether the risk mitigation strategies had been successful.
