challenges:

A 3-month delay in recruiting the project staff at the beginning of the project, in addition to a 2-month delay in receiving approval for a request for budget revision, all translated into substantial delays that adversely affected the project's performance, efficiency and effectiveness. The source of these delays were internal processes and policies at the ROAS. The delays affected implementation in a number of ways, and even affected the structure of the work team, as the initial delay meant that it was no longer possible to recruit a CTA for this project. Moreover, the delay caused a significant gap between the 1st and 2nd phases of the project, thereby disrupting the work flow with beneficiaries and partners.

success:

N/A

context:

The 2nd phase of the project began during the peak of the COVID crisis in Jordan, and during the end of year period in which personnel go on leaves and IT systems are inaccessible.

description:

ILO's internal processes and policies led to considerable delays during project implementation and led to a significant gap between the 1st and 2nd phase of the project, which ultimately adversely affected project performance, especially given the short duration of the project. Delays should be avoided as much as possible in future projects, especially those stemming from administrative issues.
