M&E Mission for MII
• MII is widely recognized for being results oriented, performance driven and a learning program
• We achieve this by improving our ability to:
• Planning and tracking results
• Learning and improving the performance
• Communicating and Promoting results

Linkage of HQ M&E and the Field• HQ M&E team provides support to M&E field team (Train,
backstop, assist in M&E activities)
• HQ and Field M&E teams Participate in the preparation and implementation of the Monitoring and Evaluation plan (PMP)
• Supports major M&E activities in the field i.e. Baseline and follow-up surveys, impact assessment surveys, result-based project monitoring
• MII M&E team builds capacity of MII service providers, MII staff, MII partners to track rightful information

The Performance Management Process -MII
Planning Monitoring
Evaluation

The Performance Management Process Planning
What to do, when, who, how. . . then what to achieve Prepare monitoring systems Prepare evaluations
Monitoring (monthly/Quarterly) Track Outputs and/or Inputs of activities (Activity-Level) When: During the intervention (implementation of activities) How: On-going verification by the program
Evaluation (Semi-annual) Assess expected change in the condition of the beneficiary (Result-
Level) When: Before and after the intervention How: Baseline, Mid-term and Final reviews
Communication Show results and effects of the program Share with beneficiaries, government departments, partners, sub-
contractors etc.

M&E: Planning and tools• Prepare/review the Strategy of the program:
Results Framework (RF), causal model, Logical Framework
• Select and Document Performance Indicators: Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP)
![Page 10: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Causal Relationship: Great Tool
![Page 11: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
M&E: Monitoring Mandate1. Document Program Work Plan (inputs and
outputs)
• Prepare Performance Management Task Schedule
2. Plan quarterly targets: Quarterly Performance Data Table
3. Ensure Data Quality:
• Prepare Data Quality Assessments
4. Assess and improve M&E capacity
• Prepare Performance Management Assessment Sheet
![Page 12: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
M&E: Evaluation• Baseline Studies (2013)
1. Carry out a baseline study to know the “Before” scenario (Analysis on-going)
• Identify constraints and opportunities and adjust the design and implementation of the program
• Plan/review annual targets: Annual Performance Data Table (Review after baseline survey)
• Mid Term Reviews (2015)
• Assess progress toward meeting program objectives
• Improve the design and implementation of the program
• Final evaluations (2017)
• Assess progress toward meeting program objectives
• Results achieved and lessons learned
![Page 13: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Communication of Results• Prepare progress reports i.e.: (1) Quarterly and (2) Annual
• Prepare special reports i.e.: (1) Baseline and follow-up reports, (2) Assessments
• Success Stories: Documentation of results (Important)
• It educates our donors, our company, our partners, and the public on the difference that our work makes in the lives of our clients.
• It describes a positive change and shows how that benefits individuals, organizations, local governments and communities.
• Lessons Learned
• This is a generalized principle/lesson that can be applied in other situations. Use quantitative measures and documentation of results
• Communicate to beneficiaries and stakeholders

UNIQUENESS AND ROBUSTNESS OF MII M&E
• Show results/Impacts
• Verify information
• Communicate the results
• Defend outputs
• Strong M&E Support (PMU)

MII M&E Slogan
As soon as the boss decides he wants his workers to do something, he has two problems: making them do it and monitoring what they do?.”
MONITORING

MII Strategy for Effective M&E
o Ensures M&E system is robust, integrated and linked to enhance impact monitoring, quality control and evaluation to meet information needs of all stakeholders
o Embraces RBM/MSC M&E oriented approaches- Manifest importance of demonstrating results

Key Elements of MII Platform Service Delivery Model

MII M&E Data tracking Model
![Page 20: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Challenges with M&E • Some indicator definitions pose tracking challenges: jobs
attributed to FtF implementation (one month continuous jobs difficult to find in agricultural programs).
• Definitions of USAID M&E terms confusing based on different settings/ countries/projects: Difficult to apply universally (definition of youths, vulnerable households, household type vs engendered HH type)
• Reliable and efficient tracking of larger program requires more staff and significant M&E budget
• Collecting up to date data from the private sector partners difficult (banks, agro processors).
• Threat of double counting in a big project
![Page 21: MARKETS II M&E FRAMEWORK AND CHALLENGES Joseph Obado](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062721/568138a8550346895da06655/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Challenges with MII M&E
• Impact evaluation: not easy to show counterfactual which is USAID requirement
• Efficient ICT in data management: Difficult to collect gross margin data.
• Difficult to uphold both quality and quantity of massive project deliverable requirements (M&E-quality; technical-numbers)
• M&E support from M&E subcontractor: proactive, timely and objective. Criticisms good but not 100% of the time
• DQAs in most cases look for negatives about the project to report: objective should be to improve systems
