Financial Management Information Systems (FMIS): Project Guide: Strategic, Functional, Technological, and Governance Issues in the Design and Implementation of New Platforms for Public Financial Management Systems
Financial management information systems (FMIS) are essential for economic stability and for improving fiscal efficiency and transparency. It is increasingly important that FMIS provide comprehensive functional coverage, as well as architecture and technologies that are flexible and modular without any loss of efficiency or effectiveness. This FMIS Project Guide describes the strategic, organizational, functional, technological, and operational issues that must be addressed for successful implementation of an FMIS. The Guide is divided into 14 self-contained chapters that may be reviewed separately. They cover all significant aspects of designing, implementing, and operating an FMIS, including detailed coverage of the issues considered critical and alternative approaches for addressing these. Topics addressed include the design and organization of project governance; management and indicators; the legal framework; institutional arrangements; institutional capacity building; conceptual models; public expenditure processes; data models and system requirements; the analysis of alternatives for deciding whether to implement a new system or upgrade an existing one; information security; procurement of hardware, software, and services; system deployment; management models for operating the system; and the use of new emerging technologies such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, blockchain, mobile money, and data visualization technologies.

Extended Country Program Evaluation: Dominican Republic: 2013-2020
The Office of Evaluation and Oversight (OVE) has prepared its IDB Group Country Program Evaluation (CPE) for the Dominican Republic for the period 2013-2020, covering two strategic planning periods. It is OVE's fifth independent evaluation of the IDB Group's program in the Dominican Republic. Previous evaluations covered the periods 1991-2003 (document RE-306); 2004-2008 (document RE-371); 2010-2013 (document RE-453); and 2013-2016 (document RE-505). This evaluation, like others of this type, aims to analyze the IDB Group's relationship with the Dominican Republic from an independent and comprehensive standpoint, with the twofold purpose of strengthening accountability and sharing lessons learned to inform the Bank's future support and, in particular, the next country strategy. This CPE carefully examines the design, implementation, and outcomes of operations approved or active between 2013 and 2020, taking the national context and applicable strategic documents into account.

New Employment Technologies: The Benefits of Implementing Services within an Enterprise Architecture Framework
Public employment services (PESs) are offered through different channels to employers looking for workers and job seekers looking for work or requiring unemployment benefits. The multiplicity of services and channels, paired with processes that are sometimes not adequately mapped, creates challenges during the implementation of digital systems. This document analyzes how the use of enterprise architecture can provide a framework that helps to define and represent a high-level view of the organizations processes and information technology (IT) systems, as well as their relationship with various parts of the organization and external entities. Having a strategic vision and a high-level design facilitates the implementation of systems in phases and modules, as well as the organization of the services the PES provides in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. This document also presents examples of how new processes and systems yield greater benefits when implemented strategically within an enterprise architecture framework rather than when implemented in an isolated manner. This publication is aimed at helping decision-makers, as well as managers and officials in charge of employment policies, to fully appreciate the benefits of implementing a wide-ranging digital transformation in labor intermediation institutions within the framework of a strategic tool such as enterprise architecture.

IDB Group Project Performance: The 2023 Validation Cycle
This report summarizes the 2023 results of the Office of Evaluation and Oversight's (OVE's) annual review of project performance at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) Group. Every year, IDB Group Management prepares self-evaluations on the final results of its operations. These are called Project Completion Reports (PCRs) at the IDB and Expanded Supervision Reports (XSRs) at IDB Invest. PCRs and XSRs are then validated by OVE to ensure that they are substantiated by evidence and are prepared in accordance with their respective guidelines. Self-evaluations are intended to serve as accountability and learning tools. The IDB Group's project evaluation methodology is objectives-based. Project performance is rated based on four core criteria: (i) relevance of the project's goals and design, (ii) effectiveness or the degree to which the project achieved the specific objectives for which it was approved, (iii) efficiency with which the objectives were achieved, and (iv) sustainability of the results achieved. Each project then receives an overall outcome rating, calculated as a weighted average of the core criteria ratings, where effectiveness has the highest weight. In addition, two noncore criteria are rated for IDB operations (Bank performance and borrower performance), while three are rated for IDB Invest operations (additionality, investment profitability, and work quality). OVE also rates the quality of the self-evaluation reports by Management. The overall outcome is rated on a six-point scale, while core criteria, noncore criteria, and PCR and XSR quality are rated on a four-point scale. For simplicity, this report groups ratings into “positive” and “negative,” where positive corresponds to the top half ratings in the scale, and negative to the bottom half.

Evaluación extendida del programa de país Costa Rica 2015-2022
Este documento presenta la evaluación de la Oficina de Evaluación y Supervisión (OVE) sobre el Programa de País (PP) del Grupo BID (GBID) con Costa Rica en el período 2015-2022, lo que corresponde a dos periodos de planificación estratégica. Esta es la sexta evaluación independiente que realiza OVE del programa del GBID en Costa Rica. Las anteriores cubrieron los periodos 1990-2001; 2002-2006; 2006-2010, 2011-2014 y 2015-2018. La presente evaluación examina la relación del Banco con Costa Rica para un período extendido. Según consta en el Protocolo para Productos de País de OVE, las Evaluaciones Extendidas de Programa de País (XCPE), como ésta, son evaluaciones independientes de las dos últimas Estrategias del Banco con el País (EBP) y el PP correspondiente, y su principal función es evaluar la relevancia, efectividad y sostenibilidad de la EBP y el PP. Las XCPE se enfocan tanto en la rendición de cuentas como en el aprendizaje, y su propósito es proveer tanto al Directorio como a la Administración del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) y BID Invest una evaluación del desempeño del GBID en el país y de su PP, y compartir lecciones aprendidas de cara al apoyo futuro del Banco y, en especial, a la próxima EBP. Las XCPE emiten recomendaciones que se espera mejoren la siguiente EBP y PP. La evaluación del Programa de País examina el diseño, la implementación y los resultados de las operaciones que forman parte del PP con Costa Rica entre 2015 y 2022, teniendo en cuenta el contexto nacional y los documentos estratégicos aplicables. Para ello, OVE analizó datos del país, estudió documentos de proyecto y realizó entrevistas (de forma virtual y presencial) con las autoridades del país, las unidades ejecutoras de proyectos, el sector privado, representantes de otras agencias de desarrollo, y personal del GBID en la Representación del Banco y en la Sede. Además, OVE realizó una misión al país en junio de 2023. OVE agradece la participación y colaboración de estas contrapartes que posibilitaron un intercambio enriquecedor de información y un acceso razonable a la verificación de resultados del programa.
