comments:

Management partially accepts this recommendation: The Programme acknowledges the merits of the ONEILO integrated model and is actively working towards sustaining its core elements in Phase II. Recognizing funding limitations, strategic modifications will be introduced while ensuring continuity in key operational and management practices such as centralized M&E, team coordination, and inter-component synergy.

action_plan:

- Develop proposals for ONEILO-Siraye Phase II and secure funding from donors. - Commence ONEILO-Siraye Phase II - Continuing integration and centralization including M&E, budgeting and staff for cost-efficiency - Continue holding bi-weekly team meetings with all project staff.

title:

Recommendation 1: Ensure that the ONEILO approach continues to be implemented during the second phase of implementation. The Programme’s one ILO approach was able to provide a variety of benefits towards supporting the implementation. By relying on multiple components, it was able to tackle issues that would have been too complex for a single project to handle, especially given the multifaceted needs of factories. Moreover, by combining expertise from multiple components, the Programme was able to support reaching achievements at the sectoral and national levels, as holistic momentum developed at one level meant that it could potentially carry over. This is an area of great interest for other countries as well. Moreover, having a ONEILO approach meant that a lot of Programmatic aspects, including M&E, budgeting and staff, were centralised. This helped the Programme have better cost-efficiency and, through better management and communication, improved its ability to implement activities and remain responsive. Therefore, it is recommended that the ONEILO approach continues to be implemented, and any additions to the Programme would be integrated under the ONEILO flag. A key element of the ONEILO approach that should also continue is the weekly meetings and the comprehensive internal feedback structure, which ensures full transparency on the achievements and challenges in the factories and that evidence on what works is regularly collected and presented to the constituents.
