Lesson
Executing and implementing agencies need to find ways to sustain data collection and analysis throughout the project implementation phase to ensure high-quality M&E systems. Monitoring and evaluation was not completed before project closing because, at the critical late stage of implementation, the pandemic brought consultant services to a stop before they can be completed. Some baseline data were collected in 2015, but the function was not completed because of early implementation delays.

Clearly defined project implementation plans for multitranche financing facility (MFF) tranches along with a well-formulated design and monitoring framework (DMF) enhance the quality of the project’s implementation plans and support the achievement of the intended results. Specifically, developing clear and logical performance indicators, baseline targets, and timelines can benefit the project’s performance and accountability which facilitates better assessment of the project’s achievements.

An effective and operational project performance monitoring system can help ensure that the data needed to assess the project is available. Although the extended harbor was only partially operational, actual data on the usage of the ferry terminal can be useful to assess the project’s success.

A well-designed and functioning project performance monitoring system (PPMS) is critical for the monitoring of project performance and collecting data for economic analyses (among other information). Given the data issues persistent in the Pacific e.g., availability and quality of data, careful thought on designing a comprehensive but implementable i.e., “fit for purpose” PPMS is imperative upon project teams. This can enable better data collection, which can facilitate better post-evaluation.

A well-designed monitoring and evaluation system helps ensure proper attribution of project investments to the achieved outcomes, at project completion. Specifically, a monitoring and evaluation system, with sufficient and dedicated staff, could monitor and assess pertinent project-related data. These help in corroborating that systematically gathered information during implementation is indeed the result of a project’s intervention.

A project performance monitoring system (PPMS) based only on implementation and gender data has limited usefulness. To adequately evaluate the impact of a project and estimate its economic internal rate of return that reflects the primary and secondary benefits of the project, a PPMS needs to include the economic data of project beneficiaries, e.g., avoided economic losses.

The design and effective implementation of a project performance monitoring system is essential to the economic and financial evaluation of water supply and sanitation projects. The collection of benefits data helps in the identification, quantification, and valuation of economic and financial benefits for evaluation during and after project completion

Lesson
A project performance management system (PPMS), which was not included in the project design, could have been beneficial for identifying, quantifying, and valuing economic benefits, and help in evaluating the extent of the project’s effectiveness and sustainability

It is important to properly sequence the implementation of technical assistance so it could provide its inputs to the project in a timely manner. According to the project completion report, the delay in the development of the National Transport Plan supported by the project preparatory TA affected project implementation as projects sites were required to be included in the plan prior to implementation.

The multitranche financing facility (MFF) modality allows flexibility in project selection and project management maintaining focus on reforms and performance. However, when there are potential political, governance, security, and integrity uncertainties, it would be more appropriate to use a stand-alone project loan with additional financing depending upon emerging needs. Simpler project designs, with specific purposes in a limited number of locations, are more likely to succeed than those with a broad scope and

Lesson
Robust project baseline data is needed to adequately assess complex projects with significant potential environmental and social impacts. In this project, baseline data on noise, vibration, vulnerable affected people, and river ecology were collected in accordance with contracts, applicable laws, regulations, and policies. This proved insufficient and led to questionable results particularly with the regard to the impact of vibration in several project-affected buildings. For future projects, more detailed studies and additional assessments need to be carried out.
