Quality Control and Monitoring Strategy Manual Presentation of assumptions to Quality Control and Monitoring Strategy Manual „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union Kick-off meeting Feb 2014 Ruse, Bulgaria As Lao Tse stated: „A long journey starts with one step”

PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN  to ensure a good monitoring of the project work plan and an effective on-time delivery of the outcomes and outputs.  to create the information base required for steering and decision taking during implementation  for learning process where experience gathered is analyzed and fed back into planning and update implementation approaches. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

KEY SUCCESS FACTORS  Motivated people on the project  Good project management  Satisfying project organization - management structures  Efficient project communication  Understanding cultural differences „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

IDENTIFYING OUR ROLE IN CONSORTIUM  Let’s consider the project as a travel and partners as travel companions.  The project outputs we desire are like a agreement on the destination with travelling companions.  We have to plan our journey well.  Good project management is an enabler of successful projects (necessary skills, knowledge and experience for the job) „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Quality Control and Monitoring Strategy Should be concentrated on:  Aims, Objectives and Outcomes - necessary to deliver the project.  A clear timeline for all participants to achieve. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Basic steps of Quality Control and Monitoring (I) 1.Collecting data :  Indicators for objectives at all levels of the logical framework  Quality and appropriateness of activities and use of resources (performance)  Project impact  Cooperation with target groups and partners. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Basic steps of Quality Control and Monitoring (II) 2.Analyzing and drawing conclusions :  Comparison of planned and actual achievements (planned and unforeseen), identification of deviations (review) and conclusions (reports)  Changes in project environment and consequences for project, drawing conclusions  Comparison of planned and actual mechanisms and procedures of project organization and cooperation with target groups, identification of deviations and conclusions „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Basic steps of Quality Control and Monitoring (III) 3.Making recomendations and taking corrective action:  Adjustment of timing of activities and resources  Adjustments of objectives  Adjustments of procedures and cooperation mechanisms. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

QUALITY CONTROL and MONITORING SYSTEM – 2 Stages I.stage:  the monitoring of the project work plan and an effective on-time delivery of the outcomes and outputs. (UJK)  coordinate all MATcHES partners in the process of internal monitoring (UJK). „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Comparing actual project performance against the project management plan. Identifying, analyzing, tracking, and monitoring existing (and new) project risks. Maintaining an accurate, timely information base concerning the project’s outputs. Monitoring implementation of approved changes as they will occur. Providing appropriate reporting on project progress and status to Project Coordinator and Steering Committee. The Monitoring and Control Project Work process The Monitoring and Control Project Work process

Quality Control and Monitoring – external evaluation II.stage:  external evaluation (subcontracted) - more integrated and meaningful picture of overall project achievements  descriptive analysis and quantitative information to support subsequent planning and operations. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Quality Control and Monitoring – external eavaluation Why there is success or failure and what has been learned to improve future action. The external evaluator will be asked to produce:  an interim report – mid-term evaluation focused on questions of efficiency (covering the first 16 months, March 2015)  final quality report – ex post evaluation focused on impact and sustainability (November 2016) „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Monitoring the Elements of the Project  Activities  Indicators  Ddeliverables. Comparing the time planned for and finally required to carry out an individual activity – the major tool is the individual work plan. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Communication and reporting (II)  Not only formal reports but also communication efforts that: - seek feedback about interim findings - discuss what actions are needed. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Information gathering and organising  Collecting information in the form of tables and time sequences, copies of documents: statue.  Who will be involved in collecting, compiling and analysing in Your Work Plans?  WP’s Leaders – Partners involved in WP. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Communication of monitoring results  HOW OFTEN? 1. 3-months reports from WP Leaders to UJK 2. UJK to Coordinator and Steering Commitee 3-months brief Per-Partner reports in which each partner briefly communicates the ongoing activities within the project and points out any relevant issue. These reports will be used for assessing the project activities. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Communication of Monitoring Results  Efficient & different media channels to communicate:  Reports and other documents - s;  Other information (interwies, feed back): e- mails, skype, project website. „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union

Monitoring of assumptions and risks (1) „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union Identified Risk Risk of occurrence Likely impact Action Loss of key project personnel MEDIUMHIGH Reduce staff turnover Loss of dataLOWHIGH All data should be backed up according to local policy or Consortium agreement (?), whatever more frequent Delay in identifying correct tools, techniques and methods LOWHIGH All principal staff involved are national/ internationally respected in their fields that ensure proper holding of this risk occurrence Delay in meeting project deliverables and milestones LOWMEDIUMExperienced project managers will ensure timely delivery of deliverables and milestones. Few of the collaborating partners have long-time experience and good background within their respective tasks. The project is therefore considered medium-risk.

Monitoring of assumptions and risks (2) „MaTCHES - Towards the ModernisATion of Higher Education InstitutionS in Uzbekistan”, project is co-financed by European Union Identified Risk Risk of occurrence Likely impact Action Communication problems: language and overload informations MEDIUMHIGH Less informations sent by s (to avoid full mailboxes) – source of information: project website with intranet option, less problems with written informations better translation with freeware software. The currency exchange ratesMEDIUM The foreign exchange looses are ineliglible and impossible to predict but careful and good financial management is a critical.
