Sound planning reduces delays in implementing procurement activities, especially for projects with interdependent components. Specifically, sufficient preparation for procurement planning, scheduling, and costing, given project-specific requirements, are vital in the timely procurement of goods and services. A well-planned procurement leads to a better management of procurement-related activities (e.g., bids, contracts, and others), which in turn, facilitates the timely completion of project components.

Lesson
Undertaking a rigorous risk assessment, including possible mitigation measures during project preparation, helps minimize implementation delays and cost overruns, both of which could undermine the realization of expected project results. A thorough assessment of potential risk factors such as the soundness of supply and demand projections; adequacy and sources of O&M expenditures, including other possible cost-recovery measures; and financial arrangement among borrowers and development partners helps strengthen project preparation.

Setting-up, collection, and reporting of baseline and performance indicators are essential to strengthen a project’s monitoring framework. Well-defined outputs and outcome indicators, targets, and baselines specific to project intervention areas improve project monitoring and results evaluation (e.g., reporting outcome or output indicators outside project areas hinders the attribution of results to the project).
