Lesson
The framework for a program’s data management system should be put in place before its start to measure the achievement of targets and beneficiaries and (the ambitiousness of goals should be balanced against the availability of data and capacity to quickly augment granular data collection. Although the government has increased its focus on gender equality and has made efforts to strengthen gender data tracking, data disaggregated by sex and age of end recipients were often not available at the time of program preparation and monitoring.

Project Number: 56149-001
Project Name: Building Resilience with Active Countercyclical Expenditures Program
Report Date:
Lesson
When designing future programs, ADB needs to encourage the government to implement long-term reforms that expand sex-disaggregated data collection and strengthen the capacity of line ministries and statistical agencies. With ADB dedicated technical assistance (TA) support, the government should promote the establishment of a monitoring and evaluation system, interagency exchange of data, and systemic links between planning, budgeting, and execution.

Lesson
Ensure that all monitoring and reporting profiles for the project and adequate documentation are provided in a satisfactory manner for a follow up at a later stage. This includes a list of areas and topics for further studies and/or research.

Project Number: 48006-001
Project Name: Improving Efficiency in Public Service Procurement, Delivery, and Financing
Report Date:
Lesson
Replication: Within ADB, the SDCD cost center has been established to develop GCF project proposals. Scaling up: It would require additional project preparation facilities, trust fund resources, and climate TA projects alongside ADB projects. Skills within SDCD have been developed but continue to rely on TA consultant support for implementation. The TCR, thus, recommended for a way forward.

Lesson
In cases where results dissemination is constrained, due to sensitivities (as occurred in this TA), ADB may instead prepare and publish “Observations and Suggestions” on its website.

Project Number: 51021-001
Project Name: Reforming the System of Personal Income Tax and Social Security Contributions
Report Date:
Lesson
Agree on the need to continuously implement capacity building activities, given the rapidly changing development landscape and new emerging challenges, and to customize it to local languages for better understanding. The design of the next capacity building workshops should be informed by the feedback received from the participants from the post-training evaluation surveys conducted. It would be useful if SDCC could indicate these feedback and suggestions for future CDTA projects.

Project Number: 50060-001
Project Name: Strengthening Tax Policy and Administration Capacity to Mobilize Domestic Resources
Report Date:
Lesson
As a consequence of this TA, a cost center has been established in SDCD, which allows ADB, inter alia, to continue to develop project proposals for submission to GCF. ADB’s Pacific Regional Department has since implemented TAs that can support the generation of climate finance proposals in conjunction with ADB projects.

Project Number: 47286-001
Project Name: Enhancing Readiness of ADB Developing Member Countries for Scaled Up Climate Finance
Report Date:
Lesson
Based on the consultants’ final reports and the two policy briefing notes, two issues of Observations and Suggestions were prepared by the resident mission and published on ADB website, which can be replicated in other similar TAprojects.

Project Number: 51021-001
Project Name: Reforming the System of Personal Income Tax and Social Security Contributions
Report Date:
Lesson
As weak capacity in revenue administrations still remain due to emerging challenges including significant and rapid changes in the business circumstances (i.e., expansion of cross-border supply chain and digitalized platform), scaling up capacity building initiatives to address these challenges will be required. The subprojects implemented by ADB regional departments should be well designed at the initial stage to improve the likelihood of success.
