Chapter 1:

Introduction

Overview of the Sugar Sub Sector

The development of the sugar industry in Kenya started with private investments at Miwani in 1922, followed by Ramisi Sugar Company in 1927. After independence, six additional companies were established namely: Muhoroni (1966), Chemelil (1968), Mumias (1973), Nzoia (1978), South Nyanza (1979), West Kenya (1981) and Soin (2006). The establishment of the parastatals was driven by a national desire to (i) accelerate social-economic development; (ii) address regional economic imbalances; (iii) increase Kenyan citizen’s participation in the economy; (iv) promote indigenous entrepreneurship; and (v) promote foreign investments through joint ventures. This desire was expressed in the Sessional Paper No. 10 of 1965 on African Socialism and its Application to Planning in Kenya.

Despite these investments, self-sufficiency in sugar has remained elusive over the years as consumption continues to outstrip supply. Total sugar production grew from 368,970 tonnes in 1981 to an all time high of 520,404 tonnes in 2007. Domestic sugar consumption increased even faster, rising from 324,054 tonnes in 1981 to 741,190 tonnes in 2007. Consequently, Kenya has remained a net importer of sugar with imports rising from 4,000 tonnes in 1984 to 230,011 in 2007. The country’s annual National sugar deficit on average is 200,000 tonnes of sugar. There however exists potential for Kenya to become and retain self-sufficiency in sugar production and also produce surplus for export.

Table 1.1 and Figure 1.1 below shows sugar production and consumption trends in the period 2001-2008.

Sugarcane is one of the most important crops in Kenya alongside tea, coffee, maize and horticultural crops. It directly supports 200,000 small-scale farmers who supply over 85% of the cane milled by the sugar companies. An estimated 6 million Kenyans derive their livelihood directly or indirectly from the sugar industry. The industry is rural-based benefiting the rural poor and significantly contributing to the achievement of one of the Millennium Development Goals on poverty reduction. The number of persons directly employed in the sugar factories has however been declining due to an emphasis on productivity and efficiency as shown in Table 1.2 and Figure 1.2.

The Board has also registered four new white sugar factories; Butali, Kwale International & Allied Ltd, Keiyan and Trans Mara Sugar Companies with a combined potential capacity of 3,000 TCD. During the period of the Strategic Plan, it is expected that an additional mill will be established in the Tana River Districts, along the coastal lowlands.In addition, there are four licensed and operational jaggery millers; Lubao, Shajanand, Farm Industries and Homa Lime Jaggeries, who produce a combined capacity of about 300 TCD.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

13

Apart from these, there are many informal and mostly mobile jaggeries, in excess of three hundred, that each consume between 3 and 35 tonnes of cane per day. The importance of the jaggery mills to the economy is recognized as they provide employment to over 5,000 people and alternative market for sugarcane. However their regulation is a major challenge for the industry.

Domestic production of sugar saves the country in excess of US$ 250 million in foreign exchange annually. In the last five years, sugar contributed about 1.8% per annum to the National GDP, which in 2006/07 totalled Ksh. 26.7 billion.

Apart from the economic contribution of the sugar industry to the National Economy, there are many social benefits accruing to the communities in the sugar belt. Sugar companies and some outgrower institutions have embraced the principles of corporate social responsibility and have invested in social amenities, including schools, roads & bridges, health facilities, sporting facilities especially football clubs and environmental protection through reafforestation programmes and effluent treatment.

The performance of the industry however continues to face several challenges which include; liberalization under the COMESA and WTO protocols, high costs of production, poor state of some factories, poor supply chain management, poor state of roads, inadequate research, development and extension services. Others are; insufficient funding, unharmonized industry regulatory framework, cheaper import and punitive tax regime.

To improve efficiency in domestic production, pricing and marketing of sugar was liberalized in 1992. Further trade liberalization has been implemented under the World Trade Organization (WTO) and regional and bilateral trading arrangements under East African Community (EAC), Common Markets for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) Free Trade Area, and the Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) with the EU. These have the potential to precipitate stiff competition to the domestic sugar industry.In Kenya, sugar is still the core commodity produced from sugarcane. Value addition to the co-products of sugarcane processing i.e. molasses, bagasse and filter mud is still low keyed and largely unexploited. Major sugar-producing economies notably Brazil, Mauritius and Egypt, are diversifying to other enterprises e.g. ethanol and power co-generation.

1.2 Justification for the Strategic Plan

For the Board to remain relevant in the industry, it will need to develop, promote and facilitate the implementation of strategic objectives that will increase sugar production and productivity, reduce cost of production, expand the product base and benchmark with efficient sugar producers to attain world class standards. The Board will play a leading role in the intended privatization of government owned sugar companies.The strategic plan provides a roadmap for the Board to address industry challenges in order to make it competitive, profitable and vibrant.

1.3 The Process

The process of preparing this strategic plan was participatory and involved stakeholders. The following approach and methodology was adopted:

The KSB Board of Directors and management critiqued the Strategic Plan i) 2004-2007 and made recommendations for amendments.The KSB Board of Directors and management developed the draft Strategic ii) Plan 2007-2012.A Management Task Force was constituted to polish and fine tune the draft iii) Strategic Plan 2007-2012.Draft document circulated to Board, management and other stakeholders for iv) comments.Presentation of the fine tuned document to KSB Management and staff, Board v) of Directors and sugar industry stakeholders for their final comments.Stakeholders’ validation workshop.vi) Specific alignment with the National Vision 2030 as directed by the Office of vii) the Prime Minister and Ministry of State for Planning, National Development and Vision 2030.

1.3 Organization of the Strategic Plan

The strategic plan is presented in eleven chapters. The first four chapters give an overview of the National Development Agenda, introduction to the sugar industry and the role of the KSB in the context of this Strategic Plan. Chapters five up to eleven capture the Strategic issues, objectives, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the corresponding strategies. The implementation matrix is given as an appendix.

Chapter 2:

Kenya’s Development Challenges: Global, Regional and National

Being a member of the international community, any changes in the global and regional arena have a direct bearing on the national development agenda.

The on-going meltdown of the global economy and the credit crisis currently facing Europe and the Americas spells the beginning of bad times economically for Kenya and Africa at large. The expected effect will be in terms of access to credit, grants, donor support and cash remittance by Kenyans in diaspora.

Kenya faces the challenge of ensuring macroeconomic stability by continued implementation of prudent fiscal, monetary and exchange rate policy by:

Ensuring that overall Government deficit is sustainable and does not lead to •crowding out of private sector investment;Raising the revenues collected from 20.7% to 22% of GDP by 2015 despite •a reduction in the scope of raising taxes due to on-going EAC and COMESA liberalization;Continuing growth of expenditure while creating fiscal space through expenditure •rationalization to shift resources to priority areas eg. Flagship projects critical to the 2030 Vision.Reduction in the wage bill to 6% of GDP through engagement of a leaner more •efficient work force;

The gradual movement from a low income to lower middle and then upper middle income country will progressively reduce resources from concessional funding. There is therefore need for increased reliance on access to international financial markets for its financial needs as well as on non-debt creating foreign direct investment.

Targeted growth rate of 10% and above has been achieved by few countries, other than those with substantial endowment of natural resources. Extra effort and sacrifice will therefore be required by Kenya to rise to such targets.

With regard to the monetary policy, Kenya faces the challenge of:Maintaining a low and stable inflation, critical for long term economic development. •The target is below 5%. Ensuring a flexible exchange rate system that facilitates the economy’s •competitiveness in line with an export-led private sector driven strategy.Increasing Public and Private sector investment•Increasing gross national savings from 15.6% to 26% of GDP by 2012/13•

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

The growth in world population has led to an increased demand for goods. The challenge for Kenya within the global context is to increase production levels and quality of goods and services in the face of increased competition.

Integration into the EAC, COMESA and the WTO trading regimes will inevitably expose weak industries or sectors to competition from more developed and stronger ones as we grapple with the challenges of the end of the era of protectionism.

Kenya has to progress the structural reforms in governance and anti-corruption especially in the broad areas of prevention investigation, recovery of corruptly acquired assets and strengthening of prosecutorial capacity.

In order to attract investment in various sectors of the economy, infrastructure development is necessary in terms of reduction in cost of energy, power outages, telecommunications as well as water access and urban transport system. In the energy sub-sector there is need to improve on weak transmission and distribution infrastructure.

The use of technology and innovation will be a critical factor in rapid economic growth. This has been the experience in other countries which has achieved sterling growth eg. Korea, Malaysia, Finland and China. Kenya’s use of technology and innovation is still largely untapped.

Added to technology is the challenge of human resource development in terms of quality technical, industrial and entrepreneurial skills.

A key challenge that the country has to deal with is security. Poor security keeps investors out and away. In the financial tear 2007/08, companies spent 7% of total sales on security personnel and infrastructure which is constraining to growth. Major sources of insecurity are politically based and the availability of small light arms.

The Public Service holds the key to major economic and social transformation of the nation. Kenya must seek to transform the public service into a citizen focused, result oriented and dynamic body.

Chapter 3: Kenya’s Development Agenda

Kenya’s development agenda is anchored to three key pillars: Economic, Social and Political.

Economic pillarThe Agricultural Sector has been the engine of development with its percentage contribution to GDP dropping slightly in every subsequent year. The sector however remains largely unexploited with much potential still lying latent. Reforms in the Agricultural Sector must address the following key areas:Land reformsIncreasing productivity by transforming land use structuresLand use to ensure under utilized land is used to potentialImproving inefficiencies in the supply chain eg. Storage capacity lack of post harvest services and poor access to input markets.Value addition – increase competitiveness by processing and quality packaging

Retail and wholesale trade has grown marginally over time. With an expanded market to the wider East African Region and beyond, increased purchasing power of the population, growth in retail and wholesale trading could serve to progress Kenya’s development agenda. This could be addressed through enhancing forward and backward linkages to reduce wastages in the supply chain; promotion of producer based groups or associations to address the issue of fragmentation and informality; improving the business environment through removing barriers to trade such as entry barriers.

The tourism sector must be revamped in order to face to the competition by emerging destinations, notably Tanzania, South Africa and Egypt. Kenya must expand her global and African Market share by offering new products, expanding tourism expenditure per capita and improving her international marketing strategies through: increased hotel/bed capacity; product quality and diversity; improved security; strategic leadership and coordination; etc.

The manufacturing sector is growing but is grappling with the challenges of high input costs (raw materials, labour and energy); low productivity levels (low capital productivity); inefficient flow of goods and services (transport); unfavourable business environment (heavy regulation, weak trade agreements, lack of rigorous legal enforcement, insecurity, limited access to capital).

The Business process outsourcing and off-shoring sector in Kenya is a small and new part of the economy accounting for less then 0.01% of GDP. However, the global offshore market is expected to grow beyond US$ 100 billion in 2009 and Kenya will make efforts to gain a large share of this growing global BPO market. This shall be achieved by tackling the following challenges:

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

18

Basic infrastructure – high cost and unreliable telecommunications and energy •supply and lack of dedicated BPO facilities weaken the attractiveness of Kenya as a primary BPO destination;Talent pool – most workers need retraining•Lack of local supply base for international ICT and telecommunication firms•Lack of an incentive framework from the Government.•

Financial sector reforms shall be undertaken to increase mobilization of resources and allow for deeper penetration of banking services. The reforms will see improvement in efficiency, transparency and accountability in public financial expenditure, under a coordinated strategy.

Social pillarThe Education Sector is tasked with the role of providing the skills. The challenge is to develop human resource requirements for a rapidly changing and more diverse economy through provision of:

Provision of high standards of education in terms of education offered with •contents that are relevant to the economy and society;Rapidly raise the standards of education in regions that have previously lagged •behind to be at par with other areas;Improve the overall transition rates particularly from secondary to tertiary levels;•Create a cohesive society in built with a culture of hard work and efficiency and one •that values transparency, accountability, respect the rule of law and concerned about the environment.

Health care: Majority of Kenyans still do not have access to affordable health care. The challenge is to restructure the health delivery system and also shift the emphasis to preventive care in order to lower the nation’s disease burden.

Water and Sanitation: Kenya is a water scarce country with renewable fresh water per capita at 647m3 against a UN recommended rate of 1,000 m3. The challenge is to check and reverse the decline of fresh water per capita as it is estimated to drop to 235m3 by 2025, unless checked.

Environment Management: The planned development activities in Vision 2030 will inevitable generate large quantities of solid waste and increase the pollution levels. Additionally, an increase in urban population will impact adversely on the environment and therefore requires effective management to ensure sustainability. Strong policies will be required on the environment to sustain economic growth while minimizing the impact of rapid industrialization.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

19

Gender, Youth and Vulnerable Groups: Vision 2030 mainstreams gender equity in all aspects of society and will be addressed in making changes to opportunity; empowerment; capabilities and vulnerabilities. Women are disadvantaged in accessing labour markets and productive resources. The challenge is to correct the glaring gender gaps in access to and control of resources, economic opportunities and in power and political voice. The youth (15-35 years) account for 38% of the population. Government interventions will cover the following areas: building capacity and empowerment to equip the youth to engage in productive activities; creating employment opportunities; providing the youth with the necessary support (financial and market linkages); supporting initiatives that mould character; strengthening programmes to advance youth health and well-being; and giving the youth a voice to articulate their issues as well as participate in decision making.

Housing: Providing Kenya’s population with adequate and decent housing in a suitable environment and come up with a guide or planned programme in urbanization and housing that is also consistent with the path of economic and social investments anticipated by Vision 2030.

Social equity and Poverty Reduction: Challenges include raising average annual incomes per person to US$ 3,000 from US$ 650 and avoiding the gross disparities while rewarding talent and investment risk in a manner that is deemed socially just.

Political pillarUnder this pillar, Kenya’s development agenda is to fight corruption, promote efficiency in public expenditure and improve revenue collection. The plan is to put in place a political system that is issue-based, people-centred, result-oriented and accountable to the public.

Chapter 4:Role of the Kenya Sugar Board

4.1 Background

Kenya Sugar Authority (KSA), the predecessor of the Kenya Sugar Board, was established under an Order of the Agriculture Act, CAP 318 through Legal Notice No. 32 of March 1973. It was predominantly a government–controlled organization, with farmers and millers represented on the Board. The Sugar Act of 2001 that established the Kenya Sugar Board (KSB) as a successor to KSA, came into operation in April 2002. This enhanced the role of stakeholders in policy making and regulation of the industry through Government and elected representatives to the Board.

4.2 Mandate The mandate of Kenya Sugar Board as stipulated in Section 4(1) and 4(2) of the Sugar Act 2001 is as follows;

Regulate, develop and promote the sugar industry.(a) Co-ordinate the activities of individuals and organizations within the industry.(b) Facilitate equitable access to the benefits and resources of the industry by all (c) interested parties.

5.2 Performance/Achievements of the Board

i) Corporate Governance Reform

Change in institutional management has led to better efficiency and profitability of the industry. Management of sugar industry institutions are now recruited on merit rather than political patronage as was the case previously. This has led to performance based management with improved operational profits by sugar companies.

ii) Debt Restructuring and Funding

The Board suspended interest and penalties on previous loans owed by farmers and millers to the Sugar Development Fund (SDF), amounting to about Ksh. 4.7 Billion, to enable them build their financial bases.

As at December 2007 the Board had disbursed over Kshs. 1.15 billion to farmers, being payment for the outstanding arrears owed by respective factories for the periods 1999 to 2006.

The SDF lending interest rate has been reduced from 10% to 5% per annum, as an incentive to cane farmers and millers.

iii) Research & Development

Research funding was stepped up in 2003 by 100% of the proportion allocated from SDL collected in order to enhance research, development and dissemination of appropriate technologies to the industry.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

29

iv) Sugar Import/Export Regulation

In December 2003, the Government secured a four-year COMESA safeguard period from the COMESA Council of Ministers, within which to restructure the sugar industry and make it regionally and globally competitive. In 2008, an additional 4 years was granted to enable the Government successfully conclude its restructuring programs.

The Government gazetted the Sugar (Imports, Exports and By-products) Regulations 2008 to provide for the better management and monitoring of sugar trade. These were an amendment to the regulations gazetted in 2003.

v) Sugar Arbitration Tribunal

The Sugar Arbitration Tribunal has been formed to arbitrate over contentious issues that may arise in the industry. This is intended to engender harmony, mutual understanding and provide an amicable way to expeditiously handle disputes.

5.3 Lessons Learned

The KSB Strategic Plan 2004-2007 was fundamentally flawed and it proved difficult to implement, monitor and measure performance. It had a critical shortcoming in that it did not have an implementation matrix. Also missing were the annual action plans, time lines and parties responsible.

In the absence of SMART objectives, it was difficult to measure performance against targets. These shortcomings have been addressed in the 2008-2012 Strategic Plan, which has annual action plans that will form the basis for the annual Performance Contracts between KSB and the Government. The Board also intends to apply the Balanced Scorecard to measure performance against targets, and make it easier to keep performance on track.

Conspicuously absent from the 2004-2007 Strategic Plan was the linkage between KSB’s strategic objectives and the National Development Agenda. The new SP is cascaded from the Vision 2030 Medium Term Plan 2008-2012 and is therefore in tandem with the National Objectives.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

Chapter 6:

Strategic Issues, Objectives and Strategies

6.1 Strategic Issues

i) SDL Funding Sugar Development Levy is a tax charged on sugar as determined by the Minister of Finance. The Levy is currently at 4% on both local and imported sugar (excluding imported refined white sugar) and so far the most competitive source of credit to the sugar industry and only source of funding for KESREF and KSB operations. This fund is however not adequate to meet all the funding requirements of the industry. It also poses the risk of over-reliance on one dominant source of funding.

Value Chain Inefficienciesii) In the current set up, the total industry supply chain has glaring inefficiencies that require both short and long term attention. The plan, in recognition of these shortcomings, has developed for implementation specific strategies that will address the total supply chain management in order to enhance competitiveness and sustainability.

iii) Privatization of Government-Owned MillsAll sugar companies in Kenya, with the exception of Mumias, Kibos and West Kenya Sugar Companies have majority government shareholding. The situation was precipitated by the drive by Government at the time of establishment of the mills for social-economic development of the rural areas.

Industry focus is now shifting towards commercialising enterprises with a drive for profit, hence the policy by Government to divest in order to pave way for private sector involvement in the development of the sugar industry. The sustainable development of the sugar industry is pegged on diversification and value addition to the products of the sugar industry, all of which are capital intensive.

Immediately after the privatization of Mumias Sugar Company in 2001, positive results on productivity were registered. West Kenya Sugar Company started off as a private investment and unlike the parastatal mills, has consistently posted profits.

The parastatal mills are debt ridden to the tune of Kshs. 58 billion as at 31st December 2007 and a prerequisite for privatization is the cleaning up of the debt portfolio. Specific proposals for individual parastatals mills have already been forwarded to Government for approval.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

31

iv) Improvement of Roads Infrastructure

It is estimated that the cost of cane haulage from the farm to mill contributes about 35% of the total cost of cane which is considered too high. In order to drastically reduce this cost, the plan has identified key strategies for implementation which address the overall state of industry infrastructure and the requisite funding. The plan is, therefore, expected to spearhead change in the total management of infrastructure in the industry in order to improve efficiencies and reduce the cost of sugar cane production.

v) Diversification and Value Addition

In order to reduce over reliance on sugar as the only product of value from sugar cane processing there is need to diversify the industry product base. Apart from sugar the other main products of sugar cane processing are molasses, bagasse and filter press mud. Diversification and value addition to these by-products would increase the revenue streams accruing to the sugar industry.

vi) High Cost of Sugar Production

Production of cane in Kenya is expensive owing to high altitude and rain-fed agriculture, poor crop husbandry, high cost of transportation and farm operations, low technology adoption, inadequate research and expensive farm inputs. Because of poor recoveries arising from aged and poorly maintained equipment, poor management, high cost of finance and punitive tax regime sugar production is expensive. In order to address the high cost of production and achieve competitiveness, the total value chain will be analysed with a view to eliminating inefficiencies in the system.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

32

vii) Corporate Governance

Poor corporate governance has been a problem in the industry. For efficiency and profitability of the industry, the reform process should be geared towards developing and implementing policies that will ensure that the principles of good corporate governance are instilled and maintained. This will ensure competitiveness and sustainability of the industry business enterprises and attract investment.

viii) Legal and Regulatory Framework

The industry is governed by various legal and regulatory statutes that sometimes conflict. These ought to be streamlined and harmonized to ensure that they serve the best interests of the industry.

The Sugar Act 2001 and its subsidiary legislation should also be reviewed to remove inherent impediments and create an enabling environment for the growth of the Industry.

Chapter 8:

Resource Flows

Funding1.1 8.1.1 Sources

The operations of the Board are financed by a component of the Sugar Development Fund (SDF). The SDF was created in 1992 as a revolving fund for the promotion of the sugar sector. The fund is financed through the Sugar Development Levy currently at 4% on both locally manufactured and imported sugar (SDL on refined white sugar for manufacturing is 0%). The levy is utilized to fund the following programmes, in the proportions indicated below:

%a) Factory Development Rehabilitation 0.71b) Research and Extension 0.94c) Cane Development and Maintenance 0.66 d) Industry Infrastructure 0.29 e) Kenya Sugar Board (KSB) Administration 1.40f) Sugar Arbitration Tribunal and Sugar Strategic Reserve (This is subject to the passage of the Sugar Amendment Bill by Parliament) TOTAL 4.00The SDF has had significant impact on the development of the sugar industry. It has assisted farmers to increase the area under cane to the current 158,568 hectares in 2007. In addition, millers have accessed the funds for rehabilitation of the factories. Mumias, Nzoia, West Sugar Company and Sony have obtained grants for roads and infrastructure development from the SDF.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

Resource Gap and Strategies 1.4 The strategic plan requires that the Board raises Kshs. 451.0 million from other sources to successfully implement all the activities. The Board over the five years will only generate a surplus of Kshs 18 million which could be applied to fill this gap leaving a shortfall of Kshs. 433 million. This gap will be met through a combination of different strategies;

Contribution from the outgrowers institutions and millers to fund some of the i) activitiesContribution from the SDFii) Saving from other expendituresiii) Development partners’ supportiv)

Ksh. 360 million required for cane testing units is expected to be sourced from the SDF. This drastically reduces the balance of funding to be sourced to finance the activities within the Strategic Plan.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

Chapter 9:

Implementation & Coordination Framework

9.1 Implementation Approach

The strategic plan activities will be mainstreamed into the day-to-day activities of KSB. Departments will be responsible for implementation of the activities outlined in the strategic plan. The activities will be implemented over the 5 year plan period. The activities are sequenced to follow in a logical order. It is intended that activities which can be accomplished quickly at little investment outlays are implemented early so that quick wins are achieved; this is important so that all those involved are motivated to keep the momentum.

9.2 Implementation Structure An Oversight Committee chaired by the Head of Corporate Planning will be established to oversee implementation of the strategic plan. Heads of technical and service departments will provide regular reports on performance to the Oversight Committee that will in turn report to the Chief Executive Officer.

9.3 Annual Operational Plans The Heads of Departments will be expected to prepare annual operational plans for each of the interventions breaking down the activities into tasks. They will assign implementation responsibilities to individual officers, specifying the time frame and resource requirements. This will be the basis for drawing annual performance contracts.

9.4 Quarterly Review MeetingsThe Implementation Committee comprising representation from

Corporate Planning Department – to provide overall guidance, •

Sugar Technology Department – To facilitate implementation of all technical aspects •of the SP

Public Relations – To ensure that all the activities are geared towards enhancing •customer satisfaction and have the input of internal and external customers of the Board; and

Finance Department – To ensure that the activities in the SP are properly catered for •in the budget.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

41

The Implementation Committee will hold quarterly meetings to review implementation progress. Any external factors negatively impacting on the implementation of the SP shall be reported to the Management, which through the CEO shall seek guidance from the Board of Directors.

9.5 Supervision Heads of Departments will be responsible for effective implementation and supervision of the strategic plan activities. They will ensure prompt submission of quarterly progress reports to the Implementation Committee.

9.6 Service delivery surveys The Implementation Committee will organize internal and external surveys on the level of service delivery.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

Chapter 10:

Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting

10.1 Monitoring and Evaluation The strategic plan identifies several key output areas that should be pursued. For each output area, strategic interventions together with support activities have been identified. A lot of resources in terms of personnel and funds will be used and expected performance targets for each output areas are outlined.

During implementation of the strategic plan, KSB will need to monitor and evaluate the inputs, activities, outputs and outcomes to ensure that the strategic plan objectives are delivered as expected. There is need therefore to design an effective M&E mechanism.

10.1.1 Monitoring MethodologyThree methods will be applied to monitor the strategic plan implementation and performance; routine collection and analysis of data, supervision, and surveys.

i) Routine Data Collection and AnalysisMonitoring will involve routine data collection and analysis on the success or failure of the implementation of this strategic plan. The results from the analysis should then be used to inform decision making. This way, the objectives of the strategic plan will be reinforced through corrective measures when and if necessary.

Endorsement of the Indicators •For each of the output areas success indicators are identified. These indicators should be available to all those involved in the implementation of the strategic plan and be used for planning and M&E cycle.

Data Collection and Analysis•Data to be collected and analyzed at every level will be identified. The frequency of the data collection will be determined and responsibility for collection allocated.

Data Collection Tools •There will be need to adopt a uniform set of checklists, registers, reporting forms and other monitoring tools at all levels.

10.1.2 Evaluation MechanismThe strategic plan will be evaluated before, during and after implementation to ensure that it is feasible and produces the intended results. The evaluation will be carried out using the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability and impact criteria.

KENYA SUGAR BOARD STRATEGIC PLAN 2009

43

The relevance criterion ensures that the strategic plan is addressing the policy priorities of the sector/government at all times. The efficiency criterion assesses the extent to which resources are used optimally while the effectiveness criterion assesses the extent to which the desired outputs are being achieved. Sustainability ensures that there is capacity to continue with the strategic plan while impact assessment is concerned with outcomes realization and positive contribution.

10.1.3 Monitoring and Evaluation FrameworkA logical framework showing the overall goal, purpose, outputs activities and inputs will guide the evaluation of the strategic plan implementation. The Logframe shows the objectively verifiable indicators the means of verification and the assumptions. The overall framework is shown in Table 10.1.
