Lesson
When a project provides substantial climate mitigation and environmental benefits, a project economist with strong background and experience in environmental valuation method can undertake the project economic analysis at appraisal. Usually, energy efficiency improvement projects have very low pay back periods and high economic internal rate of return. ADB should investigate the ways in which it can formalize the use of carbon prices in energy efficiency project economic analysis.

A more comprehensive analysis of the road network is crucial to better understand the need for road improvements in given road corridors e.g., surface upgrades, widening, and new roads. While for consistency the project completion report replicated the methodology used during project appraisal, it is observed that traffic forecasts were based solely on economic growth projection of the gross domestic product, and the elasticity of traffic by vehicle type is not justified.

A well-designed and functioning project performance monitoring system (PPMS) is critical for the monitoring of project performance and collecting data for economic analyses (among other information). Given the data issues persistent in the Pacific e.g., availability and quality of data, careful thought on designing a comprehensive but implementable i.e., “fit for purpose” PPMS is imperative upon project teams. This can enable better data collection, which can facilitate better post-evaluation.

Continuous monitoring of training results and job placement is required to ensure the integrity of the training data provided. The online training management system (TMS) was set up to track large-scale training outputs from numerous training providers, which also became a basis of milestone payments. The Skills Development Coordination and Monitoring Unit (SDCMU) carried out several types of monitoring and verification activities. Rigorous monitoring and regular field checks were essential for the payment system based on milestone achievement, especially with respect to job placement.

Data collection on all Indicators in each tranche project should be ensured to facilitate a reliable assessment of the accomplishments and performance of each project and the entire MFF. The executing agency (EA) is required, as part of the government’s undertakings, to establish a project performance monitoring system to collect and measure baseline data on the performance Indicators in the design and monitoring framework (DMF) during implementation and to submit to ADB, as self-evaluation, the government’s completion report for the implemented projects.
