can’t help but learn more as you take the world into
your hands. Take it up reverently, for is an old piece of

Monitoring
and Evaluation (M&E) Cell in PIFRA II
A
new cell of Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) has
been launched in PIFRA II. This is a new component purely
project based and method of evaluation will be made
keeping in view the culture of PIFRA II. This cell will
hold immense responsibility not only to watch performance
but also monitor time, issues/problems highlighted and
any other matter hindering the speedy progress of PIFRA
II. It will also help in learning from the past experiences
and avoid repeating the same mistakes. M&E cell
will always be open to suggestions, complaints or any
other issues relating to PIFRA II and keeping the source
undisclosed if necessary. The purpose of this cell would
be to track the change from baseline conditions to desired
outcomes, focusing on the outputs of project and evaluate
achievement of outcomes by comparing indicators before
and after the intervention, compare actual with planned
outcome achievements, inform higher authorities of problems
in performance and analysis of problems in performance
and analysis of performance.
In this cell, the monthly and quarterly reports will
be submitted to the Project Director on regular basis.
The basic purpose of this cell is to improve efficiency,
adjust work plan, accountability, improve effectiveness,
financial and physical impact and future programming.
Evaluation Performa's based on the indicators assigned
by the World Bank will be sent to all the concerned
offices under the scope of PIFRA II on monthly, quarterly
and yearly basis, which will be duly submitted within
the stipulated time frame to M&E cell. Other Performa's
will also be designed/approved by M&E cell based
upon the Critical Path Management (CPM). Systematic
analysis would be made to measure the performance with
identified variables and regression analysis would run
on quarterly basis keeping the first year of PIFRA II
as the base year to measure the speed and compare the
progress. The scope of this cell would be PIFRA Headquarter
(including all the Directors/Components), Component
Chiefs (Training, FABS, Audit and HR/CM), CGA, (DG MIS),
Regional Directors and District Headquarters. The strategy
for this cell is to purely focus on the financial as
well as the physical output following some of ‘value
for money’
