B. PROJECT PURPOSE AND SCOPE  

1 The primary objective of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is to impart relevant knowledge, practical skills and attitudes for gainful employment in particular occupational areas. Skills acquisition is vital for an economy to compete and grow, especially in the current era of economic integration and rapid technological change. Skill needs in developing countries are not only in great demand by the modern wage sector but also by traditional and informal sectors. TVET is a medium to provide workers with skills more relevant to the evolving needs of employers and the economy.

2 The Government of Cambodia believes that strong, relevant Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs with solid links to the labor market will contribute to social stability and inclusion, poverty reduction, and sustainable economic development. The challenge in the TVET sector in Cambodia today is how to improve TVET quality and labor market relevance.

3 The overall objective of the Strengthening Technical and Vocational Education and Training (STVET) Project as stated in the Report and Recommendation of the President (RRP) is

“to support Government’s strategies to reduce poverty and achieve socioeconomic development for all Cambodians through

a. Promotion of vocational and skills training to ensure continuing improvement in national productivity;

b. creation of jobs in the formal and nonformal sectors;

c. an increase in agricultural productivity to create jobs in rural areas; and,

d. the establishment of technical vocational education and training (TVET) networks to assist both men and women, especially the poor, disabled and vulnerable, to respond to labor market needs”.

4 The STVET Project will support the Government’s socio-economic development program through provision of industry-endorsed TVET system aligned with the basic and middle-level skills requirements of the formal and informal economies in three industry sectors, namely: mechanics, construction and business services and ICT. The project is expected to increase the employment-ready and qualified middle-level workforce both in the rural and urban areas. It is expected that there will be at least a 30% increase in the number of employees holding formal TVET qualifications, and greater employer satisfaction with employees holding new formal TVET qualifications.

5 The project is expected to produce three outputs: (i) more industry-relevant formal training programs in mechanics, construction, and ICT and business; (ii) expanded and better quality non-formal training; and (iii) strengthened institutional capacity to plan and manage the TVET system”.

6 The potential TVET beneficiaries are those who have never entered the school system (NER is 96.4% in the primary level; only 35.1% and 19.6% in lower secondary and upper secondary levels, as per EMIS data for 2011/12), or have dropped out of the school system (a total of 318,660 dropped out of the school system based on EMIS data for 2010/11 and 2011/12 with 3.7% against 8.7% drop-out in 2009/10 – 2010/11 in primary, 20% against 21.6% drop-out in 2009/10 – 2010/11 in lower secondary and 10.1% against 14.2% drop-out in 2009/10 – 2009/11 in upper secondary). To provide the requisite skills to this group of population to make them more employable must be one of the top priorities. Compared to the potential catchment population, the enrollment in TVET institutions is rather on the low side.

D. IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS  

11 The Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training (MLVT) is the executing agency (EA) and is responsible for the oversight of overall project implementation. The Directorate General of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (DGTVET) is the implementing agency (IA), and has the responsibility to actively oversee project implementation. In this role, the DGTVET is the coordinating and policy-making entity, responsible for interacting with all the important project related organs, such as the National Training Board (NTB), the Steering Committee (SC) for this project; the National Employment Agency (NEA) to foster cooperation and establish necessary linkages; the Project Co-ordination Unit (PCU), which is responsible for day-to-day implementation of the project; and the consultants, who will be advising the project on all 3 important outputs of the project to ensure that the various outcomes are achieved during the project period.

12 MLVT was established as a new Ministry under Sub-decree no. 52/GNK.BK dated 1 April 2005. It was under this same sub-decree that DGTVET was also established. Previously, TVET affairs were the responsibility of Department of TVET, under the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS).

13 The National Training Board acts as the Steering Committee and provides overall guidance to the project on policy and strategic directions, and ensures coordination with concerned ministries and institutions. It was established under the previous ADB financed Basic Skills Project, was reconstituted under Sub-decree 790 dated 14 October 2005, which was further revised under Sub-decree 1066 dated 15 June 2009, with H. E. Sok An, Deputy Prime Minister, as the Chairperson. The reconstituted NTB has 35 members, including the Chairperson, five Vice-Chairpersons from MLVT, MoEYS, MoSAVY (all represented by Secretary of State), Chamber of Professional and Micro-enterprises of Cambodia and Cambodian Federation of Employers and Business Associations (represented by their Chairpersons), representatives from 17 other Ministries, and 12 representatives from employers (4), employees (2), public training providers (3) and international organizations (3). With the Government formed under the new mandate, the representatives of the Ministries and other entities would most likely change.

14 Three sub-committees have been established under NTB. A Labour Market Information sub-committee was established as per Prakas No. 134 dated 10 October 2008, a Skills Standards and Testing sub-committee was established as per Prakas No. 135 dated 10 October 2008, and the National Employment Agency was established as per Sub-decree No. 67 dated 27 April 2009.

15 DGTVET has a number of important duties/responsibilities under the program management arrangements described in PAM. The structure includes a new entity – which will be responsible for all standardized competency tests/examinations as well as monitoring and evaluation and quality assurance. The duties/responsibilities of DGTVET, with regard to the project, can be synopsized as follows: o Coordinate with NEA; o Develop and approve national (TVET) qualifications framework; o Provide and equip reasonable office space; o Inform and update NTB regularly on project goals and achievements; o Coordinate to reduce overlap and support convergence between the project and

other Ministry’s initiatives with other donors and other programs; and o Advise consultants on policy changes.

16 The Project Coordination Unit was established under Prakas no. 007/10 KB/B.K

dated 12 January 2010 in DGTVET, comprising of 26 members. H. E. Pich Sophoan, Secretary of State, MLVT, is Project Director, H. E. Laov Him, Director General of DGTVET is the Project Coordinator, and Mr. Tep Oeun, Deputy Director General of DGTVET, is the Executive Administration Officer. PCU has 4 units – (i) Finance (4 persons), (ii) Procurement (2 persons), (iii) administration (2 persons), and (iv) Technical (15 persons). The duties/responsibilities of PCU can be summarized as follows: o Support project implementation ensuring compliance with all ADB-MEF

procedures in procurement of goods, works and services and financial control; o Provide support in facilitating workshops and implementation processes

with DGTVET institutions; o Supervise the development of annual work plans by the consultants and

monitor the progress against work plans; o Ensure that baseline, midterm and final impact surveys are comprehensive

and carried out on time; o Supervise the completion of Quarterly Progress Reports and submit these to

ADB on time; and,

o Resolve and facilitate resolution of any issue arising from project implementation amongst stakeholders.

17 Consulting Services: The project is supported by 600 person-months of consultants, of which 160 person-months are international and 440 person-months are national. The 160 person-months are shared by 12 international consultants and the 440 person-months are shared by 11 national consultants. The PAM states that these services have been provisioned to assist the project to achieve sustainable outcomes by providing technical support for implementation, system and institutional monitoring and training, planning, management, delivery and staff upgrading. Ten (10) of the 12 international and 9 of the 11 national consultants are to assist in skills standards and curriculum development, management and instructor training, development of management information systems and a web site, and implementation of the VSTP. The remaining two international and two national consultants are to support the PCU in monitoring and evaluation, finance, procurement and civil works.

18 The Consultant Services contract was awarded to the first ranked firm SMEC International Pty. Ltd, which submitted the winning proposal in collaboration with ABU Consult and CSCS. The selection was based on the QCBS selection procedure. The contract was signed on 25th October 2010 at a total contract amount of USD 4,107,226. The deployment of consultants commenced from 1st of December 2010. Of the total 12 originally identified international consultants, the international social and gender consultant has had to be replaced due to the unavailability of the previously identified consultant and two other positions have had to be filled up by consultants, who were already part of the original team and were doing complementary assignments. Under this arrangement, the 12 international positions were combined into 10 positions. The remaining input of one of the three VSTP national consultants has been converted to two additional international positions as well as reallocation of 2 months to one existing international position. Consultants for the two new international positions – Nonformal Entrepreneurial Specialist and Skills Standards Specialist, ICT/Business - were approved and deployed on 2 September 2012 and 9 September respectively. Three international consultants have completed their assignments. One international TVETMIS consultant did not report back to work. One international social and gender consultant and one international skills standards consultant for ICT/Business are to be replaced. Two new international positions, namely TVET Qualifications and Programs Specialist and TVET Communications and Marketing Specialist, were proposed during the last ADB Review Mission and will be deployed soon, now that the proposed contract variation has been approved by ADB. Of the 10 national deployed national consultants, two VSTP consultants resigned with both positions already replaced, and the national social and gender specialist was replaced and deployed from November 2011. This national social and gender specialist has also resigned and is being replaced by another consultant. The national community development specialist and In-service TVET Teacher Training Specialist have also resigned. The remaining inputs of the national community development specialist have been utilized to extend the input of one of the national VSTP consultants. The in-service TVET Teacher Training Specialist is being replaced. One new national TVET Qualifications and Programs Specialist is to be recruited soon as the new contract variation has been approved.

E. OVERVIEW OF ACHIEVEMENTS 19 The project was successful in contracting out the consulting contract and deploying the

consultants in a time frame of less than 12 months from the date of advertising for the expressions of interest from interested consulting firms. The short listing, the invitation for request for proposals, the technical evaluation of the proposals received from the shortlisted firms, the opening of the financial proposals, the consolidated technical and financial marking, the contract negotiations, contract signing and deployment were done very efficiently compared to the time usually taken in the recruitment process.

spite of the above, the consultants were deployed late, which negatively impacted on the progress of the project as the disbursement in 2010 was negligible. However, with deployment of consultants from 1st of December 2010, the pace of progress on a number of outputs has increased significantly. The achievement over the last four reporting quarters has been very significant as reflected from the contracts award and disbursements, with disbursement in the 3rd quarter of 2012 USD 1.427 million, which increased to USD 2.755 million in the 4th quarter 2012, which further increased to USD 2.037 million during the first quarter of this year. The contracts award for the 1st quarter of this year was USD1.401 million. Both contracts award and disbursement in the 1st quarter exceeded the projections of USD 1 million and 2 million. However, both contracts award and disbursement slipped during the 2nd quarter with contracts award and disbursement only USD 0.319 million and UAD0.793 million. Both contracts award and disbursement of USD 1.831 million and USD 2.847 million exceeded the target of USD 1.5 million for both contracts award and disbursement during the reporting period. Hopefully, this upward trend will continue in the last quarter of this year.

20 The updated design monitoring framework is given in Annex 1.

21 The achievements of the project in terms of compliance with the Grant Covenants is given in Annex 2. Nine out of the 45 covenants are one-time covenants. Forty are being complied with, and 5 are to be complied throughout project implementation.

22 The updated good governance framework is given in Annex 3.

23 Based on the 6 months (June to November 2013) action plan agreed during the ADB Mid-Term Review Mission 29 April – 10 May 2013 and incorporated in the MoU, various activities were scheduled to be completed during the 3rd quarter 2013. The progress of the various activities against the timelines is given in Annex 4.

24 The updated gender action plan (GAP) is given in Annex 5.

25 The major achievements during the third quarter 2013 can be synopsized as follows, with elaboration in the appropriate sections, where the achievements in the various outputs are described in greater detail:

Output 1: Formal Programs that are more Relevant to Industry The construction of Svay Rieng and Takeo RTCs have been completed, however,

some small defects need to be rectified before official hand over; the other 3 RTCs in Battambang, Kampot and Siem Reap would have also been completed, if instruction had not been issued not to complete the roof tiling because of the addition of one floor for the dormitory;

The design and bill of quantities of the dormitories for the 4 RTCs in Battambang, Kampot, Siem Reap and Svay Rieng have been completed, after the designs were discussed with the RTC directors and the PCU senior management; the contract negotiations with contractors are to be conducted by mid-October so that these can be approved by ADB and the construction of the additional floors can start;

The Bid Evaluation Reports (BERs) of the ICB for the supply, delivery and installation of automotive and construction workshop equipment for the certificate level for the 5 RTCs, NTTI and relevant National Centers of Competency (NCCs) – ITI and PPI – are in the final draft stage, with the BERs scheduled for submission to ADB for approval by the 3rd week of October;

The bid for the supply, delivery and installation of computer laboratory equipment for certificate level for the 5 RTCs, NIB, NTTI, and CIEDC were opened on 23 April 2013; the ADB gave NOL on 16 July; the contract was signed on 22 July 2013 and the delivery date is 04 October 2013;

The bid for conducting soil testing for construction of class room block for CIEDC, workshop for ITI, new building in Kep and 5 dormitories were opened on 25 September 2013 and the bid evaluation report is ongoing;

Centers and obtaining the necessary approval by the senior management, the detailed architectural design was completed in consultation with various specialists, taking into account skills standards and gender aspects. These revised plans were also discussed with the directors of the Institutions. The detailed working drawings, specifications, bill of quantities and cost estimates were completed, necessary approval was sought from ADB to proceed with the bidding. The bids for the 5 packages of civil works for the 2nd phase construction were received on 22 December 2011. The bid evaluation reports were submitted to ADB and after receiving ADB’s approval the contracts were signed on 15 March 2012 for a total amount of US$ 1,594,959.42. The construction commenced in April 2012.

29 In Takeo RTC, minor changes had to be made in the foundations taking into consideration the soil conditions. However, in Kampot RTC, due to the inaccuracy of the soil test result against the actual soil conditions, the soil testing had to be redone as the cost of change in piling and foundation based on the actual soil conditions was found to be high. It was agreed that the best way forward was to redo the soil test and make the necessary changes in the foundation design. ADB gave the no objection to redo the soil testing. The soil testing was redone, the pile foundation was redesigned, the contract variation was submitted to ADB for approval and the contract variation of $ 58,341.60 was signed, after which the contractor re-started the stalled pile foundation works.

30 The project proposed construction for one additional floor for the RTCs in Battambang, Kampot and Siem Reap due to their very constrained site conditions, because of very limited but high value land, and taking into consideration the need for future expansion, which will severely disrupt academic activities. The ADB review mission on September 2012 agreed in principle to the addition of one floor in these three sites. The detail architectural design, working drawings and cost estimates based on the original contract were completed. The contract variation reports were submitted to ADB and after receiving ADB’s approval the contracts were signed on February 2013 for a total amount of US$ 226,975.84. The construction of the additional floor commenced at the end of February 2013.

31 The construction in the 2 RTCs in Svay Rieng and Takeo RTCs have been completed, with some small defects needing to be rectified, after which the buildings will be officially handed over. The other 3 RTCs in Battambang, Kampot and Siem Reap had a contract variation of one additional floor. These buildings would have been ready for handover, if instruction had not been issued to the contractors not to proceed with the roof tiling as one additional floor is to be built in all three sites to accommodate dormitories.

32 The designs of the dormitories to be accommodated on additional floors in the 4 RTCs in Battambang, Kampot, Siem Reap and Svay Rieng were discussed with the RTC directors and the PCU senior management and these have been finalized. The bills of quantities have been completed. Negotiations will be conducted with the contractors by middle of next month, after which ADB’s approval will be sought before commencing with the construction of the dormitories.

33 The five site engineers to provide full-time site supervision were recruited following the ADB prescribed procedures for recruitment of individual consultants. Contracts were signed in the middle of March and the site engineers were deployed from 1 April 2012 to provide full-time site supervision.

34 The project contracted site engineer, Mr. Sam Pheakdey, on 24th October 2011 and extended his contract on 24th October 2012 for full time site supervision of the construction of PTC in Mondulkiri for 16 months. With the resignation of the site engineer in Siem Reap, and the completion of the PTC in Mondulkiri, it was proposed that Mr. Sam Pheakdey’s contract be extended by a further 9 months from previously extended 31 January 2013 to supervise the completion of Siem Reap RTC and

The capacity building to achieve these outputs has been conducted for all TWG members of the three sectors, NTTI specialist teachers, and senior officers of DGTVET/counterparts.

41 Series of CBLP writing workshops were conducted in Battambang Province from 07 to 20 July, Siem Reap Province from 04 to 16 August and Svay Rieng from 01 to 14 September 2013. The CBLP writing workshop provided the TWG members additional exposure that has boosted their confidence and built capacity to write the CBLPs in a more organized manner. Additional CBLP writing workshops are being planned until all the required number of CBLP for the level 2 priority job positions in construction, mechanics and business and ICT sectors are completed, translated and are ready for use to firstly pilot and, subsequently, implement the new standard-based curriculum.

42 Summary of achievement in the writing of CBLP level 2 for the priority job positions shows the learning and encouraging accomplishments of the TWG members from ITI, PPI and NIB. More CBLPs have been written and subsequently checked and refined by the concerned international and national consultants who have provided TWG members with the needed coaching and mentoring. (summary of achievements is given in Annex 6).

43 The TVET teachers of the 5 RTCs and 7 PTCs have attended a 5-day workshop entitled “Development and Effective Implementation of Competency-Based Approach to Formal TVET in Cambodia: An Orientation Course” that aimed to orient them on the different processes used in the development the CS, CBC, and CBLP as well as on how to use these curriculum documents.

implemented for two years each.

• Urban VSTP, which is to be piloted under the project in Phnom Penh, has two components - Micro-enterprise VSTP (ME-VSTP) and Urban pilot VSTP (U-VSTP). Cambodia-India Entrepreneur Development Center (CIEDC) and Japanese Volunteer Center (JVC) in Phnom Penh will be responsible for implementation of these two components.

64 CIEDC is responsible for implementing ME-VSTP in order to build capacity of selected micro-enterprises in small business management. ME-VSTP will target 10 Sangkats and provide training to 400 trainees for two years.

65 Japanese Volunteer Center (JVC) is responsible for implementing U-VSTP in order to provide skills training to 400 out-of-school youth in mechanics and automotive during two years of program period.

66 Three different VSTP training modes - community-based, enterprise-based and center-based training - are applied in the implementation of Rural VSTP.

92 External monitoring and Coaching: A series of field monitoring and coaching for all TVET institutions, implementing VSTP 2nd and 3rd phases, were conducted during the reporting quarter by related PCU members and national consultants. The overall purpose was to provide technical support to directors and staff of the respective institutions to implement rural VSTP as well as to monitor the progress of VSTP implementation. In addition, they were instructed about monitoring and follow-up of EBT to enhance public awareness of training programs at each training site via displaying project plate name, work closely with training providers to avoid discrimination and labor exploitation, as well as to provide instruction to trainee about small business concept, and how best to follow-up the training outcome of each target trainee. • During mid-July 2013, the TVET institutions implementing VSTP 2nd phase, namely

Kampong Cham, Kandal, Koh Kong, Kratie, Prey Veng, Pursat, and Sihanoukville were monitored and coached by related PCU and VSTP consultants.

• During early August 2013, the TVET institutions implementing VSTP 3rd phase, namely Banteay Meanchey, Kampong Speu, Kampong Thom, Mondulkiri, Preah Vihear, Ratanakiri, Oddor Meanchey, Kep, and Pailin were monitored and coached by related PCU and VSTP consultants.

• During late August, the TVET institutions implementing Urban VSTP, namely CIEDC

Page 33: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

26  

and JVC, were monitored and coached by related PCU and project consultants.

93 There were some key finding from the field monitoring: • The TVET institutions, particularly 3rd phase TVET institutions, have a better

understanding about VSTP implementing procedures, particularly in terms of criteria to select trainees and trainers, implementing training program, and using forms and templates of the programs;

• They still need further instruction about reporting and collecting necessary progress data, monitoring and follow-up of EBT, enhancing public awareness of training programs at each training site via displaying project plate name, collaborating mechanism with training providers to avoid discrimination and labor exploitation, how to provide instruction to trainee about small business concept, and how to follow-up the training outcome of each target trainee. PTC members were mentored on these aspects shortly after the visits;

• It was considered expedient to conduct refresher training course on Rural VSTP implementation for the target TVET institutions before starting the VSTP program;

94 Both Rural and Urban VSTP Implementation Guidelines have been completely translated in English. These documents need to be reviewed and edited during the next quarter.

95 External Evaluation: A series of tracer studies, to be undertaken six months after completing VSTP courses, of VSTP 1st Phase year 2 and 2nd Phase year 1 have been conducted. In April 2013, a field study was carried out to follow up with the graduate trainees of VSTP 1st Phase year 2 in 7 target provinces, namely Battambang, Kampong Chhnang, Kampot, Siem Reap, Steun Treng, Svay Rieng, and Takeo. Similarly, another study was conducted in target provinces of 2nd Phase year 1, namely in Kampong Cham, Kandal, Koh Kong, Kratie, Prey Veng, Pursat, and SihanoukVille.

96 The primary data of VSTP 1st Phase Year 2 have been analyzed; and the report is 70% complete.

97 Sub-output 2.4 : Upgrade training on skills standards in the provincial training centers.

H. ACHIEVEMENTS RELATED TO OUTPUT 3

106 The main objective of this output is to strengthen the institutional capacity to plan and manage technical and vocational education and training.

107 The Policy, Management and Institutional Development Specialist/Team Leader, with 54 months input, was deployed from 1st December 2010, along with the national Policy, Management and Institutional Development Specialist, who was also deployed at the same time for a total input of 54 months. The savings of 7.82 person months accrued from the various leaves taken by the Team Leader over the past 2 years has been re-allocated to the extension of contracts of the three skills standards specialists. Another 12 months have been reduced from the team leader’s input for further extension of some of the other positions as well as to create a number of additional positions, most importantly the international and national TVET Programs and Qualifications Specialists and the International Social Marketing Specialist. The Team Leader’s current remaining allocation is 34.18 months. After the resignation of the lead national VSTP consultant/deputy team leader, the national Policy, Management and Institutional Development Specialist was approved and appointed as the Deputy Team Leader. The national ICT specialist, with input of 60 months was also deployed from 1st of December 2010. The international M&E specialist with 11 months input was deployed from 19 December 2010. Since this international consultant could not complete the first input and the resumption of his assignment was unclear, it was proposed and agreed that 3 months of input of this consultant be reduced and allocated to the Project Finance Specialist, who had considerable M&E experience. This was done and the replacement completed 3 months of the input. The remaining input of the international M&E consultant has been extended. The originally selected national M&E specialist with input of 28 months had to be replaced, and the replacement consultant was deployed from 15 February 2011. The input of this national consultant has been extended.

108 The International Database Specialist, with only 2 months inputs, was proposed by the project to be given the additional responsibility of VETMIS IT Systems Analyst with 4 months input. After obtaining ADB’s approval, the international VETMIS IT Systems Analyst was deployed from 18 July 2011. In the same manner, the international LMIS Website Specialist, with 4 months input, was proposed by the project to be given the additional responsibility of LMIS Specialist, Development and Training, with 10 months input. After obtaining ADB’s approval, the international LMIS Specialist, Development and Training was also deployed from 18 July 2011. The international Social and Gender Specialist was also deployed from 18 July 2011. With the resignation of the international Social and Gender Specialist, potential candidates are being screened to find a suitable replacement. The international Labour Market Information and Statistics Specialist, with 6 months input, was deployed from 1 August 2011 along with the deployment of the international Project Finance Specialist, with 3 months input. The deployment of the above international consultants completed the deployment of all the international consultants. The national Social and Gender Specialist, who replaced the original national consultant for the position, was approved by ADB and was deployed from 14 November 2011. This national consultant has also resigned. A suitable replacement is being sought. There was some re-allocation of consulting inputs so that the two international consultants working on LMIS have 10 months each and the

Page 38: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

31  

international VETMIS consultant has 2 additional months. However, the VETMIS consultant, who was supposed to be back for his remaining 1.5 months did not return to work and has been completely out of touch. The national ICT specialist has taken over all the remaining works of the international TVETMIS specialist. His contract has been suitably amended.

109 Sub-output 3.1: Assess technical and vocational education and training policies. The CQF with 8 levels was finalized by an inter-ministerial committee and approved by 8th meeting of NTB on 17 February 2012. The supporting documents are being prepared to enact the necessary sub-decree.

110 A number of reports on the TVET sector as well as the national qualifications framework along with various presentations for both national and international workshops/meetings have been completed.

111 PAM document has provision to conduct two policy studies on “Future Direction of TVET in Cambodia” as well as “TVET Financing”. With the approval of ADB, these two studies were combined into one study. The process of recruiting a firm for undertaking this policy study was duly completed, including the financial negotiations and the contract was duly signed. The policy study started in mid-January of 2013. The Inception Report was completed and the first big consultation meeting was conducted soon after. The two big national workshops on the Policy Study were conducted in the first half of April 2013, and in June 2013. Under this policy study, the important policy documents such as TVET Strategic Plan, TVET Development Plan and TVET Financing Plan for 2013-2020 were to be completed. Draft final reports on the various outputs were circulated in June 2013 for necessary feedback. The consolidated final reports were submitted in mid July 2013.

112 Sub-output 3.2: Strengthen planning capacity. Under this sub-output, the achievements during the reporting quarter are summarized as follows.

113 Baseline Study: The process of recruiting the consulting firm to undertake the Baseline Study using Consultant Qualification (CQS) modality commenced with the invitation to submit expressions of interest by interested firms. The contract with the first ranked firm was signed on 16 December 2011 and the baseline work commenced on 16 January 2012. The Inception workshop was organized on 13 March 2012. The first draft of the baseline study was submitted at the end of May 2012. Several meetings were conducted with the firm undertaking the baseline survey on how to make the report more comprehensive and more acceptable. The comments from DGTVET were consolidated and relayed to the firm in mid-June 2012 for further improvement of the report. The improved second draft was submitted on 18 July 2012 and a consultation workshop on key findings was held on 31 July 2012, with relevant key stakeholders. Based on the comments and suggestions offered by the participants and PCU management during this consultation workshop, the firm conducted a second round of data collection and submitted its final report in December 2012.

114 Regional Training: The selection of appropriate training institutions for undertaking the 5 packages of regional training and study tour using CQS modality commenced with the invitation for submission of expressions of interest. Due to budgetary constraints for some packages and budgetary surplus for the study tours, new expressions of interest were sought based on new ToRs and revised costing for all regional training packages. The new EoIs were evaluated and the first ranked firms were requested to submit the technical and financial proposals. The first ranked firms for packages 3 and 4 declined to submit the technical and financial proposals; therefore, the 2nd ranked firm for these two packages, which happened to be the first ranked firm for the first two packages, was requested to submit the technical and financial proposals. The proposals were received, evaluated and submitted to ADB for approval so as to proceed with the contract negotiations. The contract for the study tour was successfully negotiated on 6

The application form can be obtained from the Office of TVET Institution Management under the Department of TVET Management (DTVETM), at Directorate General of TVET (DGTVET) in Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training (MLVT), in Phnom Penh and/or from the Provincial Department of Labour and Vocational Training (PLVT) in the provinces. The application form can also be downloaded from http://www.ntb.gov.kh/registration.html.

118 The registration of TVET institutions will be different according to the duration of the training offered and is as follows: a) Those TVET institutions offering short course training of less than 3 months must

register with PLVT; b) Those TVET institutions offering training courses for more 3 months and less than a

year period must register with Directorate General of TVET; and c) Those TVET institutions offering long term training courses of more than a year

must register at MLVT

119 Restructuring of DGTVET and Its Departments: In view of the increasing responsibilities of the Department of TVET Management and the importance of activities such as policy and planning, which require a dedicated department, the senior management suggested that a comprehensive situation analysis of all the three departments of DGTVET be undertaken with the possibility for restructuring to create a more responsive as well as effective and efficient mechanism. Accordingly, a situation analysis of the three departments of DGTVET was undertaken and various possible restructuring options have been discussed and these options have been submitted to the very top management for necessary decision. A structure with 6 departments is under serious consideration. The Job Descriptions for senior management of DGTVET and PTC/RTCs have been drafted for necessary discussion and feedback.

120 Networking of RTCs with other TVET institutions in the regions: The role and function of newly designated RTCs to function as focal institutions for quality assurance, monitoring and evaluation and upgrading of teaching and learning is being assessed. The clustering/networking of Provincial Public TVET Institutions around each designated RTCs is being proposed as follows: o Battambang RTC, Battambang Institute of Technology, Prey Konkla PTC, Banteay

Meanchey PTC, Pailin PTC, Pursat PTC, and Rolang Vocational Training School in Pursat

o Siem Reap RTC, Chantiers-Ecoles de Formation Professionnelle in Siem Reap, Centre National de la Soie in Siem Reap, Kampong Thom PTC, Preah Vihear PTC, Yalay Training Center in Preah Vihear, and Oddar Meanchey PTC

o Svay Rieng RTC, Prey Veng PTC, Mondulkiri PTC, Ratanakiri PTC, Stung Treng

121 Quality Management Manual (Handbook) in Khmer and English version has been approved by the senior management. The Manual was published in both languages in late April 2013 for dissemination to all TVET institutions in Cambodia. Figure 6 gives the quality assurance road map for TVET quality improvement, in which all 6 criteria are to be reviewed by an entity external to TVET institutions (QA-M&E division) as well as all TVET institutions are to undertake an internal review, which can be termed self assessment by TVET institutions. Each of the 6 categories of quality assurance is made up of a number of elements (sub criteria) considered critical for success and quality improvement of TVET provisions in Cambodia. The structure of the assessment and quality assurance matrix is flexible and allows progressive change to meet higher demands over time. The primary instrument is a self-assessment matrix that will assist the senior management to identify specific systemic or institutional weaknesses which are within their capacity to control or address, thereby empowering the senior management to take control of their improvement programs.

Figure 6: Quality Assurance Roadmap for Quality Improvement

122 As a final result of the external audit, quantitative quality scores are given to the six quality assurance criteria and sub criteria used in the quality assurance audit. The scores indicate the presence or absence of particular performance aspects. They provide information to policy-makers to assist in policy formulation, and they also demonstrate accountability. Quality scores for the criteria and sub criteria are defined as the performance indicators that refer to a quality characteristic or objective and which would indirectly refer to the broad context of performance evaluation in which they operate. A quality indicator is a figure, which is helpful for the assessment of a quality characteristic or the achievement of quality objectives.

123 Quality scores also provide information about the state of particular systems. It must be remembered that quantitative scores are just that—they are indicative of a certain state, not descriptive of the entirety. Indicators are typically used as yardsticks in such comparisons as a series of values over time. Along with the score, the report also consists of strengths and areas for improvement (weaknesses) for the six criteria. It is recommended that TVET Institutions are required to demonstrate that they have set up

quality management systems, quality assurance systems and continuous improvement mechanisms by the end of 2013.

124 The reports of the Quality Audit of all public TVET institution were finalized and sent to those institutions for comments and feedback to be submitted by the second week of April 2013. Two institutions (such as NTTI, PPI) out of 34 institutions sent their comments and feedback about the Quality Audit Report and the rest of the TVET institutions have agreed on the scoring result of QA report from QA-M&E Division, DGTVET. Subsequently, the QA team started to review all criteria and supporting document from the two institutions in order to double check the result. After the review of all comments and feedback, the reports were revised and discussed with senior management, particularly with regard to the scores of all TVET institutions. It was agreed at the end of the discussion that the results of the quality audit of all public TVET institutions be declared during the national workshop to be held in December 2013.

125 Altogether 243 pre-service teachers (88 females) have been trained in Quality Assurance Process and Procedure by QA-M&E teams. The main objective of this training was to mainstream the quality assurance handbook and mechanism to the pre-service teachers to impress upon them the importance of quality assurance in order to strengthen and improve the quality of TVET institutions where they will be assigned to work after completing their one year pedagogy training at NTTI.

126 The follow up training on Quality Assurance (QA) – Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Process of TVET in Cambodia was conducted for all the QA officers of 12 public TVET institutions on 11th – 24th August, 2013 and other 26 TVET institutions on 09th – 13th September, 2013. The main aim of the follow up training was to sensitize and strengthen the QA system and quality audits and to train QA officers at the operational level so that they are able to oversee and improve the self-assessment, which will help improve the performance of their respected institutions in terms of the agreed quality indicators.

127 Physical Accomplishment Weighting of the project by the end of September 2013 is 64.85% against the projected 65.93% to be achieved at the end of 2013. This result identifies and quantitatively measures the physical achievements of elements of the project outputs. At the output level, the scores are 14.71% for formal programs (Output 1), 30.69% for expanded and better quality non-formal TVET program (Output 2) and 9.76% for the third output, namely strengthening capacity to plan and manage TVET, and 9.69% for project management components as per the following table.

Table 12 : Actual Physical Accomplishment against Projection for 2013

Output Target 2013 Actual by end of September 2013 Output 1 11.30% 14.71% Output 2 33.30% 30.69% Output 3 11.64% 9.76% Project Management 9.69% 9.69%

Total 65.93% 64.85%

128 The achievement for output 1 is 14.71%, which is above the annual target of 11.30% because the skills workshop equipment lists have been approved by ADB and the contract has been signed with the successful bidder. Since VSTP phase 1 - year 1 and 2, and phase 2 - year 1 operation have been completed, and VSTP phase 2 - year 2 has been implemented, there is an overall achievement of 75%. Therefore, the achievement of Output 2 is 30.69% against the annual target of 33.30%. The achievement score for Output 3 is 9.76% against the annual target of 11.64%. The difference is mainly due to the delay in implementing the regional training and study tour programs. The achievement score for Project Management is 9.69% against the annual target of 9.69%. The achievement has reached the target score because the study of TVET policy direction and TVET financing 2014-2018 has been completed. For

J. CONSULTING SERVICES  

143 The project is supported by 600 person-months of consulting services, of which 160 person-months is international and 440 person-months is national. The 160 person-months is shared by 12 international consultants and the 440 person-months is shared by 11 national consultants.

144 Compared to many projects, the selection of consultants started early, following all the mandatory steps in compliance with ADB procedures, using the QCBS 80:20 selection system. The whole selection process from the time of advertisement to contract signing took a bit less than 10 months and the consultants were mobilized in just over 11 months from the first date of advertisement. The process of selection of consultants started when the consulting services was advertised in ADB website from 22 December 2009 – 22 January 2010, even before the project had become effective on 26 February 2010.

145 The consulting contract was signed on 25 October 2010 and the first group of consultants was deployed from 1 December 2010. The last two groups of 6 international consultants were deployed on 18 July 2011 and 1 August 2011. During the first 8 months of implementation, there were several changes in the national consultant positions resulting from resignations or consultants not being available even after the changes were approved by ADB necessitating replacement of the replacement. Some of the international positions also had to be replaced. Four positions in VETMIS and LMIS related positions were combined into two positions.

146 Consulting Contract Variation : With the approval of ADB, a contract variation was signed between the Project and SMEC on 25 October 2011. This contract variation envisaged deduction of 3 person months from the allocated input of International M&E Consultant and assigning 4.29 person months to International Finance Specialist, who was to function as the Interim M&E Specialist; deduction of 4 months from international LMIS Specialist, Development and Training and increasing by the same 4 person months to the existing 6 months of the International Labour Market Information and Statistics Specialist, resulting in 10 months inputs to the project by these two international consultants; and converting 31.3 months of the remaining national VSTP position to add 2 months to international Database Specialist, and creating two new international positions (i) International Non-Formal Entrepreneurial Specialist, who was allocated 8 months, and (ii) International ICT/Business Skills Standards Specialist, who allocated 3 months. For the two new positions that were created, the consultants were recruited and they commenced work from early September 2012. During the September 2012 ADB Mission, the project discussed about reallocating the savings up till now from the Team Leader’s inputs to be distributed to the three skills standards specialists so that they can continue oversight of the development of the various skills standards works and, more importantly, supervise the implementation of the new curricula. A contract variation (second contract variation) to this effect was approved and the contracts of the three international skills standards specialists were extended.

147 At the end of the last year and in the previous quarters, a number of international consultants took breaks from their consulting inputs. The two skills standards specialists finished their inputs of 11 months at the end of November 2011 and were back for the remaining 7 months on 20th May 2012. They have finished their 18 months

Page 50: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

of allocated inputs. Similarly the VETMIS consultant, who finished 4 months of assignment came back for the remaining 4 months of his assignment on 25th June 2012. After completing 3 months, the consultant took a break but did not return to the project. The TVET Teacher Training Specialist completed 11 months of his assignment in the middle of June 2012 and returned to complete his remaining 7 months of his assignment in November 2012. The social gender specialist also took a break from her assignment after completing 6.17 months. She was requested to submit a complete work-plan before reporting back to work. She did not submit her work-plan but returned to participate in the ADB Midterm Review. The national CDS specialist submitted his resignation to be effective from 1st of October 2012. The remaining input has been added to the limited remaining input of the national VSTP consultant. The national In-service Teacher Training Specialist also resigned as of 1 April 2013.

148 During the 29 April – 10 May 2013 ADB Midterm Review Mission (MTR), the performance and deployment of consultants was discussed. The frequent changes in both the international and national consultants was a source of serious concern. The remaining works in the different sub-outputs were reviewed and possible extension of a number of international and national consultants, reduction of inputs of some consultants, and the use of the contingency amount in the consulting contract to supplement savings, primarily from the reduction of the input of the International Team Leader, were discussed. During the ADB MTR, the following changes were agreed, without any change in the total consulting contract :

o Additional person months for the 3 skills standards and curriculum specialists, 1 teacher training specialist and 2 monitoring and evaluation specialists

o Replacement and extension of the national teacher training specialist o Replacement of gender specialists (international and national consultants) o Redistribution of input of the VSTP specialists o Revised terms of reference and increase in remuneration for the ICT specialist who

took on the work of the TVETMIS IT systems analyst (did not complete his assignment)

o Recruitment of experts on qualifications and programs (12 intermittent person-months international and 18 months national); and

o Recruitment of communications/marketing specialist for dissemination and promotion of TVET as a whole, and in particular, information drives to attract female students in non-traditional formal and non-formal courses (4 person-months international)

149 Based on the above agreement, the 3rd variation in the SMEC contract was effected and the 3rd contract variation was signed on 9th September 2013. The main changes contained in the contract variation are as follows: o Reduction of Inputs : Dr. S. B. Mathe, International Policy, Management and

Institutional Development Specialist/Team Leader, by 12 months; Mr. Heng Dara, National ICT Specialist by 23.43 months and Mr. Ouchpath Akhmatak, National VSTP Specialist by 5 months.

o Increase of Inputs : Dr. P. B. Shrestha, Mr. Antonio Alegria, Mr. Emeterio Cedillo, Mr. Rajesh Khambayat all by 4 months each; Mr. Bruce Hinch and Mr. Sok Chanrithy by 6 months each; replacement for Mr. Hem Sayon and Mr. Lay Socheat by 9 months each.

o Additional Positions : International and national TVET Programs and Qualifications Specialists of 12 months each; National ICT & MIS Specialist by 21 months and International TVET Communication/Marketing Specialist of 4 months.

150 The schedule of deployment of the consultants is given in Annex 11. The status of consulting inputs till the end of the reporting period is given in the following table.

M. PROJECT ISSUES

156 Project Rating has slipped, contracts award and disbursements have to be improved through semi-monthly procurement meetings: There was encouraging improvement in both contracts award and disbursement, starting from mid-2012. The disbursement picked up considerably during the 3rd quarter of 2012 and the 1st quarter of 2013, with the project rated satisfactory at 0.9000 at the end of the 1st quarter 2013, with contracts award at 90.194% ($12.182 million/$13.50 million) and disbursement at

Page 56: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

49  

88.534% ($10.093 million/$11.4 million). However, during the second quarter, the rating has slipped because the projected contracts award and disbursement for the second quarter have not been met. Time and again, procurement has slipped with the deadlines given in the procurement plan not being met. The provision of a dedicated international procurement/finance specialist would have provided the PCU with the necessary expert consulting support to ensure timely execution and completion of all stages of procurement of the various works, goods and services in a timely manner. Provision for such critical input should be considered in the design of STVET II. In this project, the deadlines for various procurement activities need to be strictly complied with the assistance of dedicated full-time procurement staff. It is hereby recommended that PCU organize a bi-monthly meeting of the procurement unit and related consultants to strictly monitor the progress and compliance with the various deadlines in the various stages of procurement of various packages so that the rating is improved in the next quarter.

157 The results of the QA audits to be declared in a national workshop at the end of the year or early next year, ensuring confidentiality of the qualitative scores : The quality audits of all 36 public TVET institutions (excluding the two new PTCs in Preah Vihear and Mondulkiri) have been finalized, based on self-assessment, initial audit reports and feedbacks/comments received on the initial reports. Due to possible negative impacts on public disclosure of the results, it has been agreed that the results will be declared in a national workshop to be held at the end of this year or early next year, without specifying the names of the institutions. However, the institutes will be informed of their scores and corrective measures, which have to be taken to improve their performance. Over time, the quantum of funding should be based on the performance as well as on other equally important factors, such as enrollment, especially in the certificate courses.

158 Competency Skills Standards, Competency-based curriculum, and learning packages and assessment instruments need to be completed by the fourth quarter 2013 so that piloting of the new curricula can start from early 2014: The Competency-Based Learning Packages (CBLP) for mechanics, construction, and ICT and business sectors have not been completed as planned in spite of organizing a series of writing workshops. The main reason for the delay in completion of the CBLP is the volume of work of completing over 6,000 pages of documentation for 329 learning outcomes (142 learning outcomes for 4 job positions in construction, 81 learning outcomes for 3 job positions in auto-mechanics and 106 learning outcomes for 4 job positions in ICT/Business). Another huge task is to refine what has been done and to translate all of this in Khmer. The fact that the international skills standards specialists’ inputs are very limited in spite of two extensions has made the task of completing the remaining tasks related to 10 more job positions at CQF level 2 and all 21 job positions for CQF levels 3 and 4 in the remaining 21 months of the project period very challenging. The skills standards development work needs to be expedited to pilot the new curriculum from February 2014 so as to roll out the new curricula from October 2014. In order to ensure adequate technical oversight, the inputs of the skills standards specialists are to be staggered without overlapping of their inputs, so that at least one of the specialists is available at any given time, barring the months when there are many holidays. Thee is a need for making their remaining inputs most effective and totally output-based.

159 One contributing factor for the delay in completing the skills standards development can be primarily attributed to the fact that most of the TWG members, who are responsible for the CBLP writing, are fully loaded with teaching, so that they do not have enough time for this very important job. It has been agreed that the Directors of the Institutions will take appropriate measures so that the TWG members can focus on this very important task. Another reason of the delay is the unavailability of the learning materials that conforms to the topics that are needed for the inputs/information required in every elements/learning outcomes specified in the competency standards and competency-

50  

based curriculum. It has also been agreed that all the Directors will provide the required additional human resources to complete the remaining tasks.

160 Certificate Level 1 (CQF Level 2) courses need to be piloted from early 2014 and commence from the October 2014: It was proposed by the International consultants that the implementation of the new curriculum be piloted first at the 3 NCCs located at Phnom Penh instead of implementing the program simultaneously to all RTCS/PTCs (except for Business and ICT programs which may be piloted in any RTC who is offering the same program that has been developed).

This will allow the NCCs to concentrate in the pilot implementation allowing firsthand experience cum training while providing the RTC/PTC teachers to be part of the pilot testing by serving as assistant or co-teachers during the process. Implementation of the new curriculum at RTCs/PTCs will then commence after the pilot implementation of which experiences observed during the pilot implementation needing adjustment will be considered. However, for piloting, there should be certificate level students in academic session 2013-2014. In the absence of relevant certificate courses and/or students, the piloting could be undertaken in the RTCs/PTCs offering the courses in one of the three priority sectors. Other reasons piloting the implementation in NCCs are as follows:

• Refurbishment and setting up of workshops in preparation for the implementation shall be made first at RTCs/PTCs, already offering the certificate courses or will be offering the certificate courses by next academic year, prior to implementation. The delivery of tools and equipment for the RTCs has been delayed with delivery now expected to be around June of 2014.

• Capacity building of RTC/PTC technical teachers to effectively implement the new CS-based curricula will be done during the pilot testing at the NCCs ahead of the implementation at the RTCs/PTCs so as to prepare the technical teachers before the implementation.

• Skills upgrading of RTC/PTC technical teachers shall commence as soon as the setting up of the workshops and laboratories are completed and NCC lead teachers who undergo the regional training have arrived. Regional training of NCC lead teachers is now expected to commence by the end of November 2013.

• TWG of NCCs shall complete the writing of the English version of CBLP level 2 by end of September 2013 and translation shall commence thereafter and completion by December 2013.

161 Adequate Pre-service and In-service teacher training need to be conducted : Adequate pre-service and in-service teacher training needs to conducted as per an agreed work-schedule so that the new teachers, taking up their new positions, as well as those who are already in the teaching profession, receive appropriate training necessary to fulfill their teaching responsibilities when the new certificate courses start. All the efforts of the project from now on should focus on the implementation of the new courses, with the start-up of certificate level 1 (CQF Level 2) in the coming academic year 2014, certificate level 2 (CQF Level 3) to be piloted from January 2015 and implemented from October 2015 and certificate level 3 (CQF Level 4) to be piloted from January 2016 and implemented from October 2016, even though STVET project will end in June 2015. The international TVET Teacher Training specialist has completed his 18 months of input. His contract is to be extended so that he can provide the very critical and important pre-service and in-service training that will be needed to pilot and implement the new curricula.

162 Preparing Additional Teachers for effective implementation of the new curricula : There is an urgent need to organize and conduct a few short-term capacity building training programs on CBET. Such programs will help to create additional support group of teachers, who could be trained so that they can help to expedite the writing of the

Page 58: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

51  

remaining curriculum documents [together with Khmer translation] and subsequent preparation for writing CBLP at all levels of the identified priority sectors. Steps also should be taken to match the teachers’ qualifications with the teaching jobs available so that there is a closer match between supply and demand of teachers in all the public TVET institutions. If there is a mismatch, this should be corrected by redeploying the teachers from institutions, where their services are not required, to institutions, where their services are required.

163 Developing group of Champion TVET Teachers : There is an urgent need to create a group of Champion TVET Teacher/Trainers in each RTC/PTC and TVET institutions so as to assist the local teachers in better project understanding, execution and its impact on the local youth for developing demand driven TVET skills and employability. This group can be created from those who will avail of the regional training.

164 Development of Appropriate Learning Materials is critical to implementation of the new curriculum: The success of implementing competency-based approach to training is heavily dependent on the availability of support learning materials like learning packages. Competency-based learning packages (CBLP) development is a serious undertaking that requires technical knowhow of the tasks identified in the national competency standards and the process of developing them. TVET teachers of NTTI and identified RTCs in collaboration with the NCCs’ technical working groups should participate in the development of competency-based learning packages primarily to acquire the knowledge and skills in developing these learning materials and share their practical experience and develop ownership of the learning materials in the process. Writing workshops are being organized in the provinces to provide the TWG members to work in a very focused manner, without being distracted by personal, social and other official business so that the remaining works in completing the CBLP can be completed in a timely manner. These writing workshops are proving to be very effective and should be continued not only for producing CBLP for CQF level 2 but also for levels 3 and 4.

165 LMIS website needs to be regularly updated : The LMIS website is operational, but there are still some presentation problems and other glitches that need to be sorted out so that the LMIS is fully operational. It is most important to ensure that this website is maintained and regularly updated.

166 TVETMIS needs to be fully operationalized soonest and regularly updated : The TVETMIS website is operational. The remaining works including revising the hard forms should be completed soonest so that TVETMIS is fully deployed by November 2014 and the required technical training of the dedicated personnel is also completed. This system needs to be maintained and regularly updated.

167 TVET institutions need to be linked up with DGTVET to operationalize and maintain TVETMIS : The whole purpose of TVETMIS is to provide the necessary information for planners and decision-makers to arrive at informed decisions. Getting accurate statistics has been a problem. Operationalization of TVETMIS is to address the current problem of getting accurate statistics. Once this system has been operationalized, this system has to be maintained. All the public TVET institutions should be linked up with DGTVET. To ensure this, all TVET institutions should have reliable and high speed internet interconnectivity, funds should be allocated from the savings from certain categories to ensure internet interconnectivity of all public TVET institutions all over the country with DGTVET.

168 Mismatch between Sub-outputs and Project Categories with Consultants’ Terms of Reference : The major lesson learnt so far during implementation of this project is that the various sub-outputs (there are 15 sub-outputs) and the project categories (there are 7 project categories, excluding recurrent and unallocated) are not adequately covered by the ToRs of the consultants to the extent that 30% of the budget allocation,

Page 59: Quarterly Report 2013.pdf · iii CONTENTS CONTENTS...........................................................................................................................................iii

52  

which is spent on civil works and equipment, do not have any international consulting input. The identification of equipment, their specifications and costing require specialized expertise, which is lacking. These two categories along with procurement of various consulting services require some intensive inputs from an experienced international procurement specialist, which has not been provisioned in the project. The provision of full-time national consultant for civil works and procurement is not adequate, due to limited capacity and experience of the national consultant in dealing with various types of procurements related to procurement of services, works and services. The procurement issue has been a problem from the beginning, due to non-provision of the services of an international consultant especially as procurement is all round the year and is a major determinant of the project success or failure. In the absence of any international input for procurement, the burden of this time-consuming job has fallen on the Team Leader, who has had to spend considerable input on various procurements issues and documents, diverting him from his main responsibilities under his ToRs. This aspect should be taken into account in the design of STVET II, especially as the procurement of various services, works and goods are expected to be even more complicated than in ongoing STVET project. Implementation and co-ordination of all the inputs of the consultants is a full-time job. As there is no dedicated implementation specialist dealing with all types of implementation issues and for coordinating the inputs from all the various consultants, the project has suffered resulting in delays in certain activities. Therefore, the sub-outputs of the STVET II project and project categories need to be mapped properly, so that the required consulting inputs are covered adequately by international and national consulting inputs, which then need to be correctly reflected in the consultants’ terms of reference. Adequate time need to be spent on drafting a proper and adequate ToRs for all consultants so that important project activities are fully covered by the ToRs.

169 Consultants’ replacement, resignations have become too frequent, which has caused numerous problems in this project, which needs to be analyzed so that this situation is minimized in future projects : In this project, there have been too many consultants’ replacement and resignations, which needs to be analyzed, as this has negatively impacted the project and has resulted in unnecessary burden and stress on the Team Leader. This project has suffered from comparatively low fees paid to international consultants, which has negatively impacted on their overall performance, which has also negatively impacted on the project outputs as a whole. There is generally a very positive correlation between fees and the quality of outputs. It is recommend that necessary corrective measures be taken by ADB COSO to avoid similar situation in future ADB projects.
