Lesson
It is important to thoroughly discuss and plan project implementation arrangements to ensure the use of the most appropriate and effective modalities. This could have mitigated initial delays and improved the efficiency from the outset of this TA that overall was well-articulated in terms of scope and the design and monitoring framework.

Project Number: 52060-001
Project Name: Building Resilience in the Pacific Small Island Developing States

Lesson
The design and monitoring framework (DMF) and monitoring and reporting mechanism need to be carefully developed at the planning stage. The outcome statement of the TA was not appropriate as it is too narrow and should be more focused on the TA benefits to Maldives. Outcome targets were too ambitious since there were several contributing factors outside the scope of the TA that affected their achievements. With a small country portfolio, unexpected delays in one or two projects will make the target unachievable. Having an outcome indicator at the broader level could help avoid that.

Lesson
The programmatic approach taken in the TA—including upstream policy reforms, midstream transaction advisory support, and downstream funding support—along with the One ADB collaboration model for energy transition, has been well-recognized and is being replicated in other developing member countries. This type of TA is instrumental in supporting the government during times of significant changes. The analytical studies in support of policy dialogues and reform measures have been critical in firming up ADB’s leading role in the sector and in leveraging reforms through investments.

Lesson
By advancing sector reforms, a facility TA, which involves multiple subprojects running concurrently within one framework, can address the risk of losing consistency or coherence among the subprojects. By setting a general policy priority and road map for sector development, the TA will be able to effectively bring its subprojects onto a common path/direction.
