Impact

• Multi level monitoring – Close Co-ordination with City Administration, PMU, WB

Consultants, State Govt. etc

• Capacity building – In-depth study, thread-bear discussions and knowledge

transfer

• Sound Management Review Techniques – Weekly Meetings, Monthly

Steering Committee Meetings, Field visits, Adhoc meetings, consultations with PMC etc. So

• Training Plan for Crew and other Stakeholders

Project Learning - continued

• Acquaintance with World Bank Procurement Procedures

• Identification and Construction of bus shelters in time

• Ensuring power supply at bus shelters

• Placement of PMC and M&E services in time

• Setting right expectations

• Exposure to the crew about the system in advance

• Location and designing of CCS

• Budgeting of project components should have practical

approach

• MIS report prepared with close coordination with the client by understanding

their needs and requirements

Conclusion

• Capacity Development

– The adequacy of the resources need to be understood, identified and

assigned accordingly. The skill set of resources is another major issue.

• Ground Realities

– Knowing when you are hitting a brick wall and changing direction is

important.

– Importance of Planning vs. Jugaad

• Culture Change

– The culture of “yes sir’’ needs to change.

• “Devil is in the detail”
