The perceived scenario • When programmes came in for renewal from all corners of the country it was noted that very little head-way was made in most of the programmes. • It was noted that in most cases the continuation programme was a “copy paste” of the previous phase with a little window dressing. • Given this scenario we felt that very few programmes would reach the desired goal. • In many cases we were not too sure if the partner had any idea of which road to take next. The situation before phase wise indicators
Providing benchmarks • In order to help partners move along in various crucial areas, the Secretariat felt it would be good to provide partners with benchmarks to be achieved at the end of each phase. The proposed solution

Phase wise indicators • Initially eight areas were demarcated for focused action and indicators were formulated under each of these areas across five phases. Later these areas were regrouped into six areas. • The initial list of indicators was drawn up by Mr. Nicholas. It was reviewed and edited by two separate groups that met in Bangalore and Calcutta. Based on these discussions, the final draft was put together by Mr. Mahesh and Mr. Gautam Chaudhary. The proposed solution
