Project Development And Management/Logical Framework Flashcards
The third column of the Logical Framework describes the ________ where information will be available on the OVIs.
Means of Verification (MoV)
The first column of the Logical Framework is used to provide a _______ of the event.
Narrative description
A feasibility study comprising
• Demand Analysis
• Pricing
• Marketing Program
Market Analysis
________ are external factors that it is believed could influence (positively or negatively) the events described in the narrative column.
Assumptions
A feasibility study comprising • Alternatives • Manpower • Cost • Manufacturing process • Plant size • Machinery and equipment • Location • Plant layout • Building facilities • Raw materials and supplies • Utilities • Waste Disposal
Technical Study
The \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ takes the form of a four x four project table. The four rows are used to describe four different types of events that take place as a project is implemented: > Goal > Purpose > Outputs > Activities
Logical Framework
Steps for Planning, Appraisal and Design
- Project Identification
- Formulation
- Feasibility Study
- Appraisal
- Preliminary Design
In its simplest terms, the two criteria to judge feasibility are _____ required and _____ to be attained.
cost
value
The second column of the Logical Framework lists one or more ________ of these events taking place.
Objectively Verifiable Indicators (OVIs)
The medium term result(s) that the activity aims to achieve - in terms of benefits to target groups.
Purpose or Outcome
Any undertaking that has a definite, final objectives representing specified values to be used in the satisfaction of some need or desire.
Project
Challenges in Project Development and Management
- Stakeholders’ Involvement
- Accountability
- Vertical and Horizontal Communication
- Bureaucratization
- Adhocracy
- Technocracy
- Corruption
The list of __________ should include those factors that potentially impact on the success of the project, but which cannot be directly controlled by the project or program managers.
assumptions
These are the specifically deliverable results expected from the project to attain the purpose.
Outputs
__________________ aim to objectively and rationally uncover the strengths and weaknesses of an existing business or proposed venture, opportunities and threats present in the environment, the resources required to carry through, and ultimately the prospects for success.
Feasibility studies
The tangible products or services that the activity will deliver.
Outputs
It is also widely known as Goal Oriented Project Planning (GOPP) or Objectives Oriented Project Planning (OOPP).
Logical Framework
Wider problem the project will help to resolve
Goal
Steps in Logical Framework
- Situation Analysis
• Stakeholder Analysis
• Problem Analysis
• Objective Analysis - Strategy Analysis
3. Project Planning Matrix
• Matrix
• Assumptions
• Objective Indicators
• Verification
This level in the objectives or results hierarchy can be used to provide a clear link between outputs and outcomes (particularly for larger multi-component activities).
Component Objectives or Intermediate Results
Undertake participatory, objectives-oriented planning that spans the life of project or policy work to build stakeholder team commitment and capacity with a series of workshops
Purpose (Logical Framework)
A feasibility study comprising effect of the project on
• Air
• Land
• Water
Environmental Study
The art of directing and coordinating human and material resources throughout the life of a project by using modern management techniques to achieve predetermined objectives of scope, cost, time, quality and participant satisfaction.
Project Management
A management tool mainly used for designing, monitoring and evaluating international development projects.
Logical Framework
Kinds of Feasibility Study
- Market Analysis
- Technical Analysis
- Environmental Study
- Financial Analysis
- Economic Analysis
- Administrative/Operational Study
The fourth column of the Logical Framework lists the ________.
Assumptions
A feasibility study comprising • External Linkages • Internal Structure • Management • Manpower • Political • Social • Legal • Selection • Approval • Activation • Supervision • Control • Handover • Evaluation • Refinement
Administrative/Operational Study
A designing approach that can be used for planning, implementing and evaluating projects or programs.
Logical Framework
A feasibility study comprising
• Contribution to the total economy
• Contribution to the sector
Economic Analysis
These are the tasks to be done to produce the outputs.
Activities
The core of the Logical Framework is the “__________” that runs through the matrix. This takes the form of a series of connected propositions:
• If the Activities are implemented, and the Assumptions hold, then the Outputs will be delivered
• If the Outputs are delivered, and the Assumptions hold, then the Purpose will be achieved.
• If the Purpose is achieved, and the Assumptions hold, then the Goal will be achieved.
temporal logic model
A feasibility study comprising
• Cost of project
• Revenues
• Sources of funds
Financial and Financing Analysis
The immediate impact on the project area or target group i.e. the change or benefit to be achieved by the project.
Purpose
The long term development impact (policy goal) that the activity contributes at a national or sectoral level.
Goal or Impact
This is a summary of the project budget.
Inputs
Factors in Situation Analysis
- Stakeholder Analysis
- Problem Analysis
- Objective Analysis
Factors in Project Planning Matrix
- Matrix
- Assumptions
- Objective Indicators
- Verification
