description:

 Implementing partners should have a dedicated M&E and finance officers to facilitate reporting. Several of the project’s implementing partners in Ghana and the Philippines experienced problems meeting ILO quality and deadline requirements for technical and financial reporting. One explanation is that the partners did not have qualified and dedicated M&E and finance officers to ensure accurate and timely reporting. Having qualified and dedicated M&E and finance officers should help implementing partners meet quality and deadline requirements while freeing up project managers and field coordinators to focus on implementation rather than on reporting. Based on this experience, future ILO and USDOL projects that rely on local implementing organizations to implement activities might consider requiring that a dedicated M&E officer be key personnel who are essential to support timely and quality technical reporting. In addition, the M&E officer should receive periodic training on project monitoring, reporting, and monitoring tools.
