Guide
for Conducting a Rapid Assessment of Country Capacity for Results Management
This rapid assessment guide offers a method for evaluating a country's
results management capacity. It is based on five building blocks of
results management. By posing questions on each building block, the
guide creates an overall picture of the country's capacity to manage
for development results. The outcome of this rapid assessment can serve
as a basis for the design and implementation of capacity building initiatives
for the country.

Philippines
Circumstances coalesce to provide an opportunity to revitalize the ADB-Philippines
development partnership. The Government has shown strong ownership and
commitment to formulate and implement a conducive macroeconomic management
framework for achieving its development agenda. A beginning has been made
to reduce the consolidated fiscal deficit. The new strategy capitalizes
on this framework, the Government’s Medium-Term Philippine Development
Plan for 2004-2010, and derives from lessons-learned that flow from recent
evaluations of the effectiveness of ADB’s past operations.
