Program Design and Implementation
Cutting corners in program design and planning is a recipe for disaster. Majority of development programs fail due to flaws in their design and poor planning. Quality of project design affects the project performance. Quality project design takes into consideration all aspects of planning including project objectives, stakeholder engagement, benefits mapping, risk assessment, capacity of organizations to implement programs as well as the actual plan (schedule) itself.
Strong performance management systems enhances learning, promotes accountability and ensures effective use of resources in implementation. Yet most of these systems are weak and not aligned with the organizations objectives and program results.
