Lesson
Inadequate consideration of the terrain, topography, and other physical characteristics of the project site may lead to design changes, with implications on project scope and costs. Separate procurement packages involving environmental mitigation measures cannot considered in the hilly region. This resulted in a reduction of targets in rural roads as funds were reallocated to new protection work packages.

Lesson
Changes in scope and subsequent revision of the DMF with board approval are critical in ensuring that the project’s intended outcome can be achieved. Adjusting the DMF and its indicators should be made as soon as the need becomes apparent, ideally during the early stage of implementation or at the mid-term review. In particular, a mid-term review provides an opportune time to conduct an in-depth assessment of whether a project is likely to achieve its outcome and outputs, and whether the output and outcome targets remain pertinent for the project context and development objective.
