15. Program and Project Management Workshop15 Task 1: 45 Minutes Big Picture Select a group Facilitator and a Presenter Review the Big Picture material presented for questions and answers Identify up to 5 questions the group can’t answer (if any) List those questions on a flip chart for presentation in plenary

16. 16 Integrated Managing for Results The Portfolio Review  A systematic analysis of the progress of an SO  Focuses on strategic and operational issues to determine whether USAID-supported activities are leading to the results outlined in the approved results framework  Led by the Operating Unit  Brings together various perspectives and points of view  Leads to management decisions  Should consider a set of issues that are prescribed in the ADS (See ADS 203.3.7.1 Pg. 30) Mandatory: Operating Units must conduct at least one portfolio review each year that covers all activities included in their strategic, special and program support objectives

17. Program and Project Management Workshop17 Portfolio reviews examine… Past year’s progress and expectations for future progress Evidence that activities contribute to results Adequacy of inputs for producing planned outputs Adequacy of the performance indicators selected in the PMP

18. Program and Project Management Workshop18 Portfolio reviews examine… Status and timeliness of input mobilization Progress on the Annual Procurement Plan Status of critical assumptions and causal relationships

19. Program and Project Management Workshop19 Portfolio reviews examine… Status of cross-cutting themes and/or synergies between Strategic Objectives Status of related partner efforts Status of the Operating Unit's Management Agreement and the need for any changes to the approved Strategic Plan

20. Program and Project Management Workshop20 Portfolio reviews examine… Pipeline levels and future resource requirements SO Team effectiveness and adequacy of staffing Vulnerability issues, related corrective efforts, and their costs

21. Program and Project Management Workshop21 Annual Report Performance Assessment Step 1: Designate Performance Indicators and Targets (ADS pg. 36) Step 2: Conduct Assessment of Target Achievement (ADS pg.37) Expectation not met, met, exceeded

22. Program and Project Management Workshop22 Task 2: 1 hour Performance Assessment Review targets (dotted trend line) and actual data (solid trend line) for each indicator by result. (pgs. 9 – 10) for the year 2000 Decide whether the each result rated as “not met” “met” or “exceeded” expectations for that year. Use the following symbols in the box of each result in the Results Framework (pg. 5) to record your decision: Not met = minus sign (--) Met = plus sign (+) Exceeded = double plus sign (++)

23. Program and Project Management Workshop23 Task 2: 1 hour Performance Assessment… Review the causal relationships: do the plusses and minuses indicate that the Intermediate Results cause the SO to be achieved? Consider these questions: Do you trust the data? Does the Development Hypothesis work? Record on a flip chart what decisions you might make, including decisions to evaluate your questions that arise.
