  1. DPM Programme Office Databases to Support Information Sharing, Coordination, Crosscutting Project Development and Progress Monitoring James Douris DPM Programme Office

  2. Issues discussed • Information Sharing Mechanisms Could Facilitate Effective Crosscutting Coordination • DPM Programme Databases as Component of Information Sharing Mechanisms • Status of Databases • Next Steps • Your input

  3. Information Sharing Mechanisms Could Facilitate Effective Crosscutting Coordination Facilitate crosscutting activities involving components of WMO Network, Members and partners to: • Identify, prioritize and monitor DRM projects based on gaps, needs and requirements (e.g., information from surveys) • Develop work plans building on the technical capacity provided through Technical Commissions, Programmes, Members • Identify relevant partners for planning and implementation • Identify relevant donors for resource mobilization • Facilitate implementation phase through information sharing • Benchmark and monitor progress based on deliverables and realized benefits

  4. DPM Programme Databases as Component of Information Sharing Mechanisms 1) DPM-related surveys • Country-level • Regional-level survey 2) Contact database 3) Compendium of WMO DPM-related Projects 4) Profiles of partners (e.g. donor agencies, etc.) • Interested in supporting DRM related projects • Who are they? What are criteria for projects? Funding mechanisms? Regions and countries of interest, range of project size and budget 5) Compendium of WMO DPM-Related publications (technical guidelines, brochures, etc.)

  5. Status of Databases 1) DPM-related surveys • Country-level survey database has been created and survey information has been imported • Reports can be generated (using basic statistics) for any grouping of countries or survey questions • Database is flexible to import data from other programmes’ surveys • Multiple language capacities 2) Contact database • Has been created and is going through final stages of data verification • Entity information: agencies, organizations, groupings of contacts such as Working Groups, etc. • Powerful search mechanism 3) Compendium of WMO DPM-related publications (technical guidelines, brochures, etc.) • A number of brochures compiled on a CD ROM and available on-line • Identified all key technical Guidelines and reports available through Technical Commissions

  6. Next Steps (1) 1) DPM-related surveys • Will be used to develop Country Profiles in DRM (Benchmark and monitoring progress) • To be integrated later as part of the WMO Country Profile database (discussed by DCR – Petteri Taalas) 2) Contact database • Input contacts provided by RA WG DPM on regional agencies, etc. • Maintain and update with new information on an on-going basis • Improve through utilization • Longer-term : Need to integrate with other programmes databases for crosscutting information (climate, hydrology, etc.) (Depends of WMO ITD support of this activity and Programmes available databases)

  7. Next Steps (2) 3) Compendium of WMO DPM-related publications (technical guidelines, brochures, etc.) • Categorization and addition of the Technical guidelines of TCs to Compendium • Maintenance and on-going updates 4) Develop two other databases Compendium of WMO DPM-related Projects • Use of Compendium for project management: Need to define parameters critical for the database (e.g., Strategic thrusts, scope, status, deliverables, timelines, collaborations and partners, resource) • Use of Compendium for progress monitoring: Need for linking the project to some Key Performance indicators (that need to be defined and linked to result based budgeting of WMO) for effective monitoring (e.g. color coded system for easily identifying project status) Profiles of partners (e.g. donor agencies, etc.) • DPM Programme Office is in the process of initiating information collection • Contributions of RA WG on DPM through the Regional reports will be critical (To be discussed in the afternoon)

  8. Next Steps (3) 5) WMO DPM Information portal (in collaboration with WMO ITD ) (Concept phase) • Internet access to WMO DRM information for all components of the WMO Network, WMO Members and partners • In accordance with WMO data security and information exchange policies

  9. Your input is critical • Contact database • Input contacts provided by RA WG DPM on regional agencies, etc. • Compendium of WMO DPM-related Projects • Use of Compendium for project management: Need to define parameters critical for the database (e.g., Strategic thrusts, scope, status, deliverables, timelines, collaborations and partners, resource) • Use of Compendium for progress monitoring: Need for linking the project to some Key Performance indicators (that need to be defined-linked to result based budgeting of WMO) • Profiles of partners (e.g. donor agencies, etc.) • Contributions of RA WG on DPM through the Regional reports will be critical (To be discussed in the afternoon)
