3. Appraisal
• Appraisal mission
During the preparation and appraisal stages, it is
essential to discuss and consult on the details of
projects with cooperating units in partner countries.
Appraisal missions should cover discussions on the
details of operations, the schedule, and the contents
of legal documents. The subsequent appraisal report
should include documents signed by both parties (e.g.,
memoranda, meeting minutes, etc.).
4. Approval
• Project submitted for approval at board meetings
• Negotiations with cooperating organizations
• Loan/TA negotiation mission
• Signing of relevant legal documents
The project approval stage should include the
negotiation of contracts. If there are any legal
documents that require negotiation and adjustments
after board approval, correspondence and
confirmation can be conducted through various
means of communication.
5. Implementation
• Procurement
• Progress tracking
• Supervision mission
The goals of supervision missions are as follows:
(1) Ensure that projects are implemented smoothly
and in line with the project description, criteria
and schedule. Also, identify any potential
problems and difficulties at each stage of
implementation, thereby allowing project teams
to configure solutions in advance and ensure
successful implementation.
(2) Develop solutions for problems that occur during
operations. If a major problem arises that affects
the progress of a project and the project team
confirms that no solution can be implemented
and that the project will not meet its stated goals,
the project team should make a recommendation
to suspend and cease operations.
(3) Gather host countries’ opinions on the on-site
supervision done by Taiwan Technical Missions,
and record experiences gained during projects,
which can provide valuable information for future
project design and operations.
6. Completion
• Project closure
• Completion mission
The project executing unit should perform all duties
needed to handle the completion of the project.
7. Post-evaluation
• Post-evaluation mission
The post-evaluation mission should be conducted by a
TaiwanICDF department that is independent from the
project executing unit.
