"esson learned and reflected in the project desi-n9

To var in ' de 'rees all pro ects init ia ted before the mid1 9s have suffered form (a) poor +ualit at entr * (b) weak

institutional capacities for pro ect mana'ement, contract

and consultant services administration* (c) ine perience in

Bank s procurement methods* (d) inade+uate inter a'enc

co ordination* (e) inordinate dela s in handin' over pro ect

sites* (f) weal contractor capabilit ies and inade+uate

consultant capacit * ( ') e cessive dela s due to weakdispute resolution and decision mechanisms and also due to

belated pa ments to contractors* and (h) lack of awareness

and low de' ree of acceptance towards inte' ra tion of

environment and social issues in technical desi'n#

This has led to substantia l chan 'es in the pro ect

preparation process, leadin' to much more eff ic ient

implementation e perience for recent pro ects such as the

-ndhra 6radesh $tate 4i'hwa 6ro ect# In the current

pro ect , ke aspects of the preparation process have

included.

$ubstantial attention to institutional assessment and

stren'thenin', and transfer of pro ect preparation and

implementation from the %inistr of $urface Transportand $tate 6ublic Works Departments to the 5ational

3al&e addition of Bank s&pport in this project9

The most important contribution of the Bank in this sector is

knowled'e of effective institutions, policies, financin' and

implementation mechanisms in other parts of the world, and

e perience with anal sis of economic, social, environmental

and povert impacts of alternative approaches# This has

helped focus attention on the stren'ths and weaknesses of

current practices in the sector, and to mobili;e technical

e per tise in e aminin' new approaches# %an of theprocedures which have been put in place durin' pro ect

preparation are now bein' adopted b 54-I for all of its

pro ect preparation activities, with substantial chan'es in
