Lesson
Zero changes in project staff and implementation arrangement contribute significantly to smooth project implementation. The key staff of the project management office and implementing agencies remained unchanged throughout the project preparation and implementation periods. This, along with the absence of any scope changes, ensured smooth implementation of the project. The experience can be repeated in future projects through appropriate institutional measures and project implementation arrangements.

Lesson
A well-defined implementation arrangement, backed by strong leadership and commitment, and highly competent project staff are crucial to project success. The project’s implementation arrangement was well laid out and all relevant entities fulfilled their responsibilities throughout the project. A project management office (PMO) was set up while the project was still being conceptualized, engaging staff with a high degree of competence and professional knowledge. The PMO director stayed with the project from beginning to end, ensuring strong and efficient support and coordination.
