Strengthening Procurement Capacities in Developing CountriesOECD/DAC – World Bank RoundtableParis, 22-23 January 2003 Developing Indicators and Monitoring and Evaluation Systems for Public Procurement Session 4: Measuring Progress – Indicators and Monitoring and Evaluation Systems Presented by Jean-Jacques Raoul (Consultant) World Bank
Structure of Presentation • Why Measure Performance? • How to Measure? • Measurement Outcomes • Issues to Consider
Why is Measuring Performance Important? • What you measure counts • Need to monitor outcomes of reforms • Ensure that corrective action is taken on time
How to Measure? - 1 • Use Relevant Performance Indicators for Public Procurement • Examples: • Prices • Use of competition, publicity • Time taken to procure • Use/abuse of contract amendments • Cost overruns • Accessibility to New Bidders • Complaints
How to Measure? - 2 • Collect and Analyze Procurement Data • Simple and affordable system • Use of Information Technology • Collection by procurement entities on permanent basis • Analysis by Procurement Oversight or independent entity
How to Use Measurement? • Review Performance and Take Corrective Actions • Stimulate procuring agencies to develop their own remedies • Identify and implement policy improvements • Publicize results • Use for increased accountability
Issues to Consider • Existing M&E systems which can be used to draw lessons from experience? • How broad in scope should the system be? Should pilots start with a small number of indicators and/or procurement entities? • Which performance indicators? • Are there other ways to monitor and evaluate public procurement systems, and how can they be taken into account?
