Lesson
Adequate project related preparatory work, planning and risk assessment are crucial to improving project readiness. These efforts include assessment of the technical and administrative capacity of the executing and implementing agencies. Under the project, any reorganization of the agency, if necessary, needs to be clearly arranged and completed prior to project start-up. This helps the agencies in addressing the implementation issues on time. Likewise, skills training of agencies involved in the implementation enhances the preparation and quality-at-entry of the project.

Lesson
Changes in scope and subsequent revision of the DMF with board approval are critical in ensuring that the project’s intended outcome can be achieved. Adjusting the DMF and its indicators should be made as soon as the need becomes apparent, ideally during the early stage of implementation or at the mid-term review. In particular, a mid-term review provides an opportune time to conduct an in-depth assessment of whether a project is likely to achieve its outcome and outputs, and whether the output and outcome targets remain pertinent for the project context and development objective.

Lesson
A strong and clear DMF is crucial for tracking project results. It is only possible to measure progress if the DMF has strong and clear performance indicators and targets which include definitions and baselines. During the design stage, these components need to be clearly defined to strengthen project readiness. At completion, the clear indicators and targets will provide an appropriate measurement of results that can reflect the actual achievements at completion.

Flexible implementation arrangements helps in enhancing a project’s relevance and results. In some cases, project relevance may change during implementation due to lower demand or unexpected government policy that subsequently may require a change in project scope and targets. This provides an opportunity to modify or correct the project design to strengthen its intended outcome at appraisal. For instance, the project was aimed to improve the carbon market development and preparedness for carbon market participation.
