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
TA relevance increased during implementation because of ADB’s responsiveness to real-time requests from the government. Regular country programming missions, consultation meetings, and tripartite portfolio review meetings provided effective avenues for ADB to be more responsive to clients. Responses to government requests should be matched by a scrutiny of the accompanying necessary changes in the results chain and the DMF overall, including performance indicators, targets, data source, and reporting mechanism.

Lesson
The DMF indicators and results chain, to effectively serve as a monitoring and evaluation tool, need to reflect the changes in TA scope and focus during implementation. Output performance indicators and targets were changed to align with the government’s requests for support to emerging priorities. The outcome statement and targets should also have been updated to reflect the changed focus of the TA which has evolved and become broader.

Lesson
An integrated energy planning across all subsectors and long-term planning for generation, transmission, and distribution networks are all essential for the efficient development of the power sector. Short-term solutions to structural problems, without holistic and in-depth diagnosis and sector-wide integrated planning, tend to push problems into the future, aggravate the situation further, and lead to inefficient sector development.
