Project Number: 35290–013, 35290–043
Project Name: North Eastern Region Capital Cities Development Investment Program (Tranche 3 and Multitranche Financing Facility)
Report Date: 31 Oct 2023

Lesson
Land acquisition and government approval processes need to be assessed and factored into the design of projects to mitigate the risk of delays. In addition to institutional capacity, other matters such as the time required for land acquisition and processing of internal approvals need to be assessed during project preparation. Appropriate risk mitigation measures need to be in place. Undertaking these activities would have helped lessen the implementation delays encountered by this project to which delays in contract awarding and land acquisition were major contributing factors.
