Lesson
Attention to staff turnover at executing and implementing agencies can decrease the risk of misconduct and delays in project implementation. In this case, high staff turnover in the executing agency resulted in the inability to conduct procurement using ADB’s Procurement Guidelines.

Project Number: 45009-002
Project Name: Fifth Health Sector Development Project
Report Date: 13 Aug 2024

Lesson
At project appraisal, staff turnover in government agencies including project implementing units (PIUs) was identified as a risk. It could have been prudent for the resident mission to provide insight into mitigation measures based on experience in other ADB projects and those of other development partners, particularly in ensuring proper repository of project documents to facilitate the efficient transfer of project responsibilities to new PIU staff.
