| Summary: | This report summarizes the results of a
two-day fact finding mission and a two day workshop
conducted by the Economic Planning Unit of the Prime
Minister s Department in collaboration with the World
Bank's Public Sector Performance Global Expert Team
(PSP-GET) held at the beginning of March in 2010 in
Putrajaya, Malaysia. Prior to the workshop, the team held
meetings with officials from the EPU, the Ministry of
Finance, the Ministry of Transport, and the Ministry of
Health to better understand the coordination and
implementation challenges facing these entities with regard
to adopting an outcomes-based approach (for a summary of the
issues discussed please see Appendix). This report covers
the critical areas to consider when implementing an
outcomes-based approach. These include the organization and
allocation of responsibilities, the design of the
implementation process, the function of a Monitoring and
Evaluation (M and E) system, change management, and the
risks associated with such a transition. Each section is
then structured in the following way: Issues identified
during the discussions; relevant experience from the two
main case study countries (Korea and Australia); and overall
findings of the PSP-GET team. |
