Lesson
The government needs to do more to provide leaderahip and guidance to infrastructure projects in Kiribati. The Project Steering Commitee, renamed in 2016 as the National Infrastructure Development Steering Committee, was set up to guide several other infrastructure projects aside from this one. Therefore, it can provide only limited support to the ADB project. Achieving the intended impacts of a major project such as ADB's requires regular and proactive direction from senior government representatives through all phases of the project.

Lesson
Improved readiness assessment is essential to avoiding implementation issues arising from inexperienced project technical and administrative staff and project managers. Under the project, the lack of experienced staff required capacity building during implementation that divided staff’s focus and resulted in problems in document processing until the project staff were able to fully understand work procedures and requirements.
