Lesson
The project demonstrated that vertical programs such as HIV/AIDS can be efficiently integrated into PHC services. While specific technical support and management will remain necessary at the central level to guarantee quality and effectiveness of the program interventions, implementation at the local level would yield better results when integrated into PHC, whenever possible.

Lesson
Under the project, a template was developed for the MOAs between NDOH, local health authorities, and the economic operators. While the objective of this standardization was to accelerate the signing of MOAs, it had, in fact, an opposite result, i.e., with the MOA not considering the local conditions, constraints and needs at the onset, the MOAs were not always satisfactory, causing delays in signing.

Regular supervision with coaching is essential for maintaining and improving the quality of health services delivery. Especially in rural areas, supervision is also required to support often isolated local staff and helps to retain health-workers. Civil works successfully rehabilitated health facilities under the project, but regular supervision of public health facilities by health staff of the economic operators, as agreed in the MOAs, were not sufficiently sustained.

The PPMS should be developed and established prior to the start of project implementation. This would ensure that all implementation activities are effectively monitored and causes of delays and mitigating actions described clearly. Benefit monitoring and evaluation is essential to measuring project impact and outcome indicators so as to measure achievement. This should not be left to the executing or implementing agency and should be undertaken by qualified monitoring and evaluation specialists, including the collection of primary and secondary data.

ADB resident mission should be more proactive in monitoring project implementation. It is contingent on the resident mission to assist the executing agency in identifying corrective measures and even use its technical resources to assist in resolving issues. The delay due to unresolved resettlement issues took too long to solve resulting in increased project cost. With local knowledge and experience, the resident mission would be in a good position to identify options in resolving such issues.

Lesson
The incompatibility of undertaking project implementation and institutional restructuring at the same time. Staff movements to the newly created state-owned enterprises affected the implementation process. NAC had to recruit new supervisors for the civil works contracts due to the institutional changes, which required some period for the new staff to familiarize themselves with their new responsibilities in the PIU.
