This lesson seems to suggest that the sequential order of activities could have been replaced by topic_x005F_x0002_based outputs. IED finds that the clear sequential order of activities would have given this TA more strength of TA design and planning.

Despite what the TCR noted with regards to the incorrectness of the performance indicator (Appendix 1), the design and monitoring of outputs and outcomes for TA projects should be owned by ADB’s own project officers—not delegated to government counterparts or consultants.

Lesson
As the TCR stated, other factors (often political) play an important role and are beyond the control of a TA project. Therefore, a broader lesson learned could be: Clearly aligning the intended outcome with its indicators and TA project’s outputs is critical for avoiding any attribution issues. In this TA project, the intended outcome was dependent on many other external factors over which the TA project had no control.

A related point here is that knowledge products dissemination activities with purposively identified audience are critical to knowledge transfer and capacity development. In this regard, the TCR could have looked into the underlying reason for the no preparation or submission of the policy brief, and no conduct of the final dissemination event. In so doing, potential lessons and operational learning could be identified to benefit future policy and advisory TAs.

Lesson
Agree. The TCR could have identified the study findings that would be more realistically relevant and useful to other ADB member countries. Given the PRC’s unique institutional and policy environment, it is likely that the study findings on the reform of monopolized industries and promotion of private sector development could be of greater value to other member countries than the reform of SOEs and labor market.

Agree. It would be useful if the TCR could identify and discuss the inconsistency in scope of study between actual TA_x005F_x0002_produced reports and the planned reports as detailed in the TA report's methodology and key activities. The same applies to the no submission of the policy brief, no conduct of the international study tour, and the final dissemination event. It should be clarified whether these changes were decided in consultation with executing agency, implementing agency, and other stakeholders.

Agree. But the TCR did not provide any explanation on why the final dissemination event was not held, despite that there were adequate TA resources to support this activity. For the TA-produced general synthesis report and the three subreports, the TCR provided no information other than their titles.
