DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

The Agricultural Production and Credit Project (APCP) will assist the GOE to make needed policy changes to deregulate the agricultural sector It will also extend concepts tested under predecessor activities throughout the PBDACs system These concepts include full banking services such as charging interest rates at near market levels and providing rapid and efficient loan approvals At the end of the project the PBDAC will have (1) a sound capital structure and capital management system (2) effective management controls (eg budgeting auditing and financial analysis of bank performance) (3) a dynamic personnel management and training program and (4) a modern management informationaccounting system An increase in private sector participation of agricultural input supply and services will be an important component of this project

The two major thrusts of the APCP agricultural policy reform and institutional strengthening of the PBDAC are implemented in coordinated parallel tracks The policy component is implemented by senior GOE officials in the MALR the PBDAC and elsewhere The institutional strengthening component is implemented by the PBDAC in coordination with the MALR

The institutional strengthening component of the APCP began in late 1987 The contractor who assisted the PBDAC under the predecessor project SFPP was retained by the Bank to assist during the initial bridging year In late 1988 the PBDAC signed a contract with Chemonics International Consulting Division to undertake the remainder of the APCP

The first work plan cycle covered the period from January 1 1989 to June 30 1989 During this period the Bank with the assistance of the contractor began to address a number of new banking areas ie audit and monitoring and finance and capital management At the same time the Bank and contractor continued to implement and expand the core credit extension and related activities begun earlier

During the first work plan a baseline study was conducted As a result of this and other work during that period a number of significant findings and recommendations were advanced The senior management of the PBDAC developed a set of guidelines in June to orient the development of the second APCP work plan The Banks guidance was to propose an ambitious plan which would respond to its needs to meet the APCP objectives in an integrated and simultaneous fashion In addition lending under the APCP system will be expanded from 12 to 14 governorates this year Standardized policies and procedures will be designed to cover all 17 governorate BDACs The AWP-II responds directly to these guidelines the geographic and functional expansion and the goal purpose and objectives of the APCP

Financial Services Farm-related Business Auditing and MIS Courses were also held in Managerial Development and English Language

o Human Resources Development Scopes of Work for specialists in the task were completed

o Program Support Documents completed included the bilingual AWP-II in first and second draft forms the First Annual ReportSecond Quarterly Report and the micro- and minicomputers RFQs Work progressed on the finalization of the Baseline Study the four volumes of which are set to be printed in late October The long-term EditorDocumentation Specialist was approved hired and fielded during this quarter Seventy project vehicles arrived in Alexandria were transported to Cairo and by quarters end were undergoing testing customs clearance exemption and registration Job descriptions for all Program Support staff and an-organizational chart were completed

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

The Participant Training data annex of the needs assessmentwhich was completed September 30 1989 includes a comprehensiveConversational and Special Purpose English training needsschedule based on the short-term technical training needs

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

2 Main Activities and Progress

(a) Activities in Daahliya Governorate Land Improvement and Farm Mechanization

Two key FRB activities are being carried out inDaqahliya governorate Land Improvement and Farm MechanizationThe economic feasibility of the Land Improvement pilot project isalready known and has been reported to the PBDAC during theprevious quarter In the case of Farm Mechanization theviability of mechanized planting of wheat was studied withresults showing that through the use of proper technologyproduction of wheat can be increased by about four Ardabs

The TAs had several preparatory meetings with BDAC MALRand Land Improvement Authority officials in Septembertime At thatthe following ten villages were selected for implementationof the land improvement project Meet El Sarm Bioden BarkEl-Ezz Shobrabedden El Malha Meet Mahmoud El-NasemiaKaertanakh Tanah and El-Nasirah All are located in El-Mansouradistrict (markaz) All in all 5000 feddans are scheduled forimprovement in the governorate

Preparatory work involved several steps The LandImprovement Authority prepared technical recommendations based ona previous soil analysis of the area A training program was setup and implemented for village bank managers financial analysts

12

extension agents and agricultural cooperative managers in the participating villages With the coordination of the APCP Training Team the Training Department of the PBDAC and the Daqahliya BDACs Training Section a two-day program was carried out for two groups each comprising 22 trainees The plan calls for an integrated implementation program including both land improvement and mechanization of wheat planting Eighty-eight person-days of training were completed for the two groups (cf 321 and 322)

An additional forty APCP project villages (be~ide the 10 villages mentioned above) in eight markazes were selected for participation in the wheat mechanization project The total projected area for wheat mechanization is 5000 feddans or 100 feddans for each of the 50 villages

A special one-day training program was designed for village bank managers financial analysts extension agents and the manager of the village agricultural cooperative It too was implemented during September The APCP PBDAC and BDAC Training Departments coordinated the preparation and implementation of this program One hundred and sixty-five trainees were trained in three days (cf 331 and 332 begun in September and to be completed in October)

The Land Improvement plan was set up to cover the following steps

1 Orientation meetings for farmers in each village will be carried out during October with the assistance of TAs ST specialists BDAC and MALR

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 12 person-days in Sharqiya governorate

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

The Agricultural Production and Credit Project (APCP) will assist the GOE to make needed policy changes to deregulate the agricultural sector It will also extend concepts tested under predecessor activities throughout the PBDACs system These concepts include full banking services such as charging interest rates at near market levels and providing rapid and efficient loan approvals At the end of the project the PBDAC will have (1) a sound capital structure and capital management system (2) effective management controls (eg budgeting auditing and financial analysis of bank performance) (3) a dynamic personnel management and training program and (4) a modern management informationaccounting system An increase in private sector participation of agricultural input supply and services will be an important component of this project

The two major thrusts of the APCP agricultural policy reform and institutional strengthening of the PBDAC are implemented in coordinated parallel tracks The policy component is implemented by senior GOE officials in the MALR the PBDAC and elsewhere The institutional strengthening component is implemented by the PBDAC in coordination with the MALR

The institutional strengthening component of the APCP began in late 1987 The contractor who assisted the PBDAC under the predecessor project SFPP was retained by the Bank to assist during the initial bridging year In late 1988 the PBDAC signed a contract with Chemonics International Consulting Division to undertake the remainder of the APCP

The first work plan cycle covered the period from January 1 1989 to June 30 1989 During this period the Bank with the assistance of the contractor began to address a number of new banking areas ie audit and monitoring and finance and capital management At the same time the Bank and contractor continued to implement and expand the core credit extension and related activities begun earlier

During the first work plan a baseline study was conducted As a result of this and other work during that period a number of significant findings and recommendations were advanced The senior management of the PBDAC developed a set of guidelines in June to orient the development of the second APCP work plan The Banks guidance was to propose an ambitious plan which would respond to its needs to meet the APCP objectives in an integrated and simultaneous fashion In addition lending under the APCP system will be expanded from 12 to 14 governorates this year Standardized policies and procedures will be designed to cover all 17 governorate BDACs The AWP-II responds directly to these guidelines the geographic and functional expansion and the goal purpose and objectives of the APCP

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

The Participant Training data annex of the needs assessmentwhich was completed September 30 1989 includes a comprehensiveConversational and Special Purpose English training needsschedule based on the short-term technical training needs

determined The Special Purpose English Training Plan and Implementation (cf 91223 in the Task and Deliverables Table annex A) target dates will be determined upon completion of the needs assessment A dialogue will be required between USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to decide on the magnitude and scope of the English language program given the predominantly short-term nature of most overseas training needs

All preparations for a preliminary visit to the Turkish Agricultural Bank (TC Ziraat Bankasi) in Ankara were completed (cf 9124) The visit will be made by the APCP Executive Manager the Chief of Party and the Training Specialist from October 1 to 5 1989 The major purpose of the trip is to determine whether or not the TC Ziraat Bankasi is a suitable agriculturai financial institution for future APCP observational tours and to assess receptiveness to such trips

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

The Agricultural Production and Credit Project (APCP) will assist the GOE to make needed policy changes to deregulate the agricultural sector It will also extend concepts tested under predecessor activities throughout the PBDACs system These concepts include full banking services such as charging interest rates at near market levels and providing rapid and efficient loan approvals At the end of the project the PBDAC will have (1) a sound capital structure and capital management system (2) effective management controls (eg budgeting auditing and financial analysis of bank performance) (3) a dynamic personnel management and training program and (4) a modern management informationaccounting system An increase in private sector participation of agricultural input supply and services will be an important component of this project

The two major thrusts of the APCP agricultural policy reform and institutional strengthening of the PBDAC are implemented in coordinated parallel tracks The policy component is implemented by senior GOE officials in the MALR the PBDAC and elsewhere The institutional strengthening component is implemented by the PBDAC in coordination with the MALR

The institutional strengthening component of the APCP began in late 1987 The contractor who assisted the PBDAC under the predecessor project SFPP was retained by the Bank to assist during the initial bridging year In late 1988 the PBDAC signed a contract with Chemonics International Consulting Division to undertake the remainder of the APCP

The first work plan cycle covered the period from January 1 1989 to June 30 1989 During this period the Bank with the assistance of the contractor began to address a number of new banking areas ie audit and monitoring and finance and capital management At the same time the Bank and contractor continued to implement and expand the core credit extension and related activities begun earlier

During the first work plan a baseline study was conducted As a result of this and other work during that period a number of significant findings and recommendations were advanced The senior management of the PBDAC developed a set of guidelines in June to orient the development of the second APCP work plan The Banks guidance was to propose an ambitious plan which would respond to its needs to meet the APCP objectives in an integrated and simultaneous fashion In addition lending under the APCP system will be expanded from 12 to 14 governorates this year Standardized policies and procedures will be designed to cover all 17 governorate BDACs The AWP-II responds directly to these guidelines the geographic and functional expansion and the goal purpose and objectives of the APCP

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

H Planning Budgeting and Reporting (Task Eight)

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

o Program Support Documents completed included the bilingual AWP-II in first and second draft forms the First Annual ReportSecond Quarterly Report and the micro- and minicomputers RFQs Work progressed on the finalization of the Baseline Study the four volumes of which are set to be printed in late October The long-term EditorDocumentation Specialist was approved hired and fielded during this quarter Seventy project vehicles arrived in Alexandria were transported to Cairo and by quarters end were undergoing testing customs clearance exemption and registration Job descriptions for all Program Support staff and an-organizational chart were completed

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

The Participant Training data annex of the needs assessmentwhich was completed September 30 1989 includes a comprehensiveConversational and Special Purpose English training needsschedule based on the short-term technical training needs

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

12

extension agents and agricultural cooperative managers in the participating villages With the coordination of the APCP Training Team the Training Department of the PBDAC and the Daqahliya BDACs Training Section a two-day program was carried out for two groups each comprising 22 trainees The plan calls for an integrated implementation program including both land improvement and mechanization of wheat planting Eighty-eight person-days of training were completed for the two groups (cf 321 and 322)

An additional forty APCP project villages (be~ide the 10 villages mentioned above) in eight markazes were selected for participation in the wheat mechanization project The total projected area for wheat mechanization is 5000 feddans or 100 feddans for each of the 50 villages

A special one-day training program was designed for village bank managers financial analysts extension agents and the manager of the village agricultural cooperative It too was implemented during September The APCP PBDAC and BDAC Training Departments coordinated the preparation and implementation of this program One hundred and sixty-five trainees were trained in three days (cf 331 and 332 begun in September and to be completed in October)

The Land Improvement plan was set up to cover the following steps

1 Orientation meetings for farmers in each village will be carried out during October with the assistance of TAs ST specialists BDAC and MALR

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

G MIS and Data Processing (Task Seven)

1 General Description

The purposes of this task are (1) to provide assistancefrom design through implementation of automated informationsystems that meet PBDAC and BDAC reporting processing andmanagement requirements (2) to coordinate the priority computerdevelopment that meets the specific APCP goal of automating thebanks accounting systems and (3) to establish the capabilitieswithin the organization to support data processing andinformation management

The focus for the AWP-II year will be on the pilotdevelopment of integrated banking software that meets thespecific project objective of automating the Banks accountingsystems Concentration will be on participative training ofstaff with the APCP team and formal technical instruction inrequired skills in order to establish the required infrastructureto support data processing requirements

The specialists assigned to this task include the MISSpecialist (full-time) nine MISDP experts working in variousspecial areas of computerization (each full-time) and theirrespective counterparts in the PBDAC

2 Main Activities and Progress

The September 12 workshop on the AWP-II brought out anumber of issues regarding MIS on which Bank management wasunclear A follow-up meeting was held with the Chairman andsenior management in which a formal presentation anddemonstration of the General Ledger system was conducted inaddition to a detailed review of the MIS development plan andimplementation strategy The MIS work plan wasapproved then formallyManagement stressed at the meeting the need to pilotthe GL and CreditLoan systems in the Toukh district bank notjust the Benha governorate office This requires earlierprocurement of a supermicro than was originally planned Thiswas reviewed with USAIDEgypt and it was agreed that the teamcould proceed under the recently-approved computer procurementplan (cf 73)

Earlier in the quarter the APCP MISDP team (prime- andsub-contractors) were made voting members of the Banks MISTechnical Committee as a result of the PBDAC Chairmans emphasison coordination of DP requirements with the African DevelopmentFund Project (cf 71)

Due to lack of progress with regard to premises formalMISPremises weekly meetings are also being coordinatedArchitectural plans for the eighth floor data processing area

21

were revised and estimates are being gathered by the Engineering Sector in order to receive USAIDEgypts approval and prepare for tender (cf 715) Benha BDAC premise requirements have been agreed to by the MIS Sector and USAIDEgypt and are pending actual floorplans and estimates

MIS staff training on MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan continued at the local contractors headquarters in Alexandria with three more sessions and thirty DP staff trained Eight additional staff attended UNIX operating system training provided free by NCR (cf 719)

Procurement was a topic of utmost importance throughout the quarter A formal APCP Computer Procurement Plan was finalized and approved by the Bank and USAIDEgypt Under Phase I of the plan four microcomputers were delivered and installed at the PBDAC An RFQ (Request for Quotations) was drafted by Chemonics Procurement Department in Washington and updated in Cairo A final draft was submitted to the Bank and fo-rwarded to USAIDEgypt for review Pending any last-minute revisions the request should be advertised in the United States and locallyduring the first week of October and the document should be distributed to vendors A draft waiver for the additional thirteen mini computers was also developed but later determined unnecessary by the USAIDEgypt legal counsel The overall timeframe remains tight and will require close coordination amongall parties involved (cf 7110)

The MISDP Training Specialist joined the team September 1 to help coordinate numerous course needs between the MIS Sector and the Banks Training Department A second entry level UNIX course was completed at NCR for four of the Banks data processing staff A draft of the overall APCP MIS training plan was completed with the project Training Specialist and approvedby both the MIS Sector and the Training Department The weekly meetings of the MISTraining Committee were formalized againunder the coordination of the new MISDP Training Specialist with a structure that should speed up the scheduling and approval of technical training of MIS staff (cf 717)

Specific PC support and applications development tasks continue toward standardizing hardware and software (cf 72)

o MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan software was purchased in order to standardize ten PCs in the data processing training room Installation was delayed when it was learned that a non-IBM graphics card had been installed in the six PCs purchased during the prior projectReconfiguration should be completed before in-house training courses begin in October

o Financial analysis microcomputers were installed in the Finance area the Savings Department on the main floor the Accounting Department in the PBDAC and in the Data Processing Department of the MIS Sector

22

o Commercial banks and training management PC applicationswere developed and are being tested by Bank staff withproject review They are scheduled to be implementedduring October in user areas

o Farm-related Business mechanization database took twoweeks to input DBase-IV output reports and documentation are now being completed and produced

o Ongoing credit reporting and project USAIDEgypt reportingwas supported for specific PILs

Priorities are clear regarding the development of the largerbanking applications and a pilot The level of effort has beehlincreased to incorporate five additional programming staffMISDP team A pilot will in thefocus on a district bank data entrypoint with consolidated reporting flowing up through the BDAC andonto the PBDAC Critical path items that remain to be done priorto implementation include procurement (operating systemidentified) training and premises The software development isuser-driven and this has been emphasized at the seniormanagement level this month Updates on various applications

follow

o General Ledger development completed on PC prototype andapproved by the Accounting Department and bank managementfor pilot implementation User group established in thepilot governorate Enlarging plan to incorporate a PBDACpilot at the same time (cf 73)

0 CreditLoans reporting staff have developed a number ofsample input forms for standardized consolidatedreporting These incorporate the reporting requirements asidentified by the user Implementation strategy is forboth manual and PC input and is being reviewed at this time (cf 74)

0 CreditLoans processing design has been updated fordistrict bank data entry point Presentation to Chairmanis planned for the next quarter User group has been setup at the PBDAC level and is to be expanded to include thepilot governorate (cf 75)

o Savings PassbookLottery inputting of data was completedfor PBDAC accounts and transactions since July 1 Afterreconciliation is done against the general ledger Bankstaff will begin daily processing in October User manualwas completed in Arabic only Management presentation isscheduled for October to be conducted by user department(cf 78)

o Payroll room was completed except for some additionalpieces of furniture required PBDAC payroll parallelimplementation is in process for September and Octoberthe Banks payroll will totally convert to the new systemfor November MIS staff training on UNIX and COBOL

23

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

H Planning Budgeting and Reporting (Task Eight)

1 General Description

A purpose of this task is to assist the PBDAC in developing a mission statement and strategic objectives in order to provide long-term direction to the state-wide organization This would also include assisting each of the affiliated banks in developing its own business plan consistent with local priorities and issues as well as consistent with the PBDACs global goals

An additional purpose is to assist the PBDAC to further develop the operational planning and budgeting function by increased use of automation and by ensuring that its focus is on enabling decisions to be made on the effective allocation and efficient use of resources

A final purpose is to assist the Bank in improving the accuracy usefulness and timeliness of financial reporting to management and to assist in developing a Financial Reporting Unit at the PBDAC thereby coordinating the financial reporting from the governorate banks and promoting standardization in reporting formats

The long-term specialists working in this area are the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (full-time) who doubles up as the PBR Specialist the Accounting Specialist (part-time) the MIS Specialist (part-time) and to some degree the Finance Specialist (part-time)

24

The initial strategy will be to assist the Bank in taking aposition on its long-term direction consistent with the GOEsand MALRs policy agenda This will also contribute indischarging the Banks statutory responsibility of agriculturalcredit policy at the national level as required by legislation

2 Main Activities and Progress

During the quarter the second Annual Work Plan (cf844) was agreed to in principle by Bank leadership Whileindividual short-term technical assistance has not beenspecifically approved the plan of work has Also the Bankchose the professional who will fill the Bank Economist slot (cf831) By quarters end the appropriate documentation such asthe job description and relevant literature for the use of theBank Economist had been prepared and circulated

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

Financial Services Farm-related Business Auditing and MIS Courses were also held in Managerial Development and English Language

o Human Resources Development Scopes of Work for specialists in the task were completed

o Program Support Documents completed included the bilingual AWP-II in first and second draft forms the First Annual ReportSecond Quarterly Report and the micro- and minicomputers RFQs Work progressed on the finalization of the Baseline Study the four volumes of which are set to be printed in late October The long-term EditorDocumentation Specialist was approved hired and fielded during this quarter Seventy project vehicles arrived in Alexandria were transported to Cairo and by quarters end were undergoing testing customs clearance exemption and registration Job descriptions for all Program Support staff and an-organizational chart were completed

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

The Participant Training data annex of the needs assessmentwhich was completed September 30 1989 includes a comprehensiveConversational and Special Purpose English training needsschedule based on the short-term technical training needs

4

determined The Special Purpose English Training Plan and Implementation (cf 91223 in the Task and Deliverables Table annex A) target dates will be determined upon completion of the needs assessment A dialogue will be required between USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to decide on the magnitude and scope of the English language program given the predominantly short-term nature of most overseas training needs

All preparations for a preliminary visit to the Turkish Agricultural Bank (TC Ziraat Bankasi) in Ankara were completed (cf 9124) The visit will be made by the APCP Executive Manager the Chief of Party and the Training Specialist from October 1 to 5 1989 The major purpose of the trip is to determine whether or not the TC Ziraat Bankasi is a suitable agriculturai financial institution for future APCP observational tours and to assess receptiveness to such trips

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

11

12

extension agents and agricultural cooperative managers in the participating villages With the coordination of the APCP Training Team the Training Department of the PBDAC and the Daqahliya BDACs Training Section a two-day program was carried out for two groups each comprising 22 trainees The plan calls for an integrated implementation program including both land improvement and mechanization of wheat planting Eighty-eight person-days of training were completed for the two groups (cf 321 and 322)

An additional forty APCP project villages (be~ide the 10 villages mentioned above) in eight markazes were selected for participation in the wheat mechanization project The total projected area for wheat mechanization is 5000 feddans or 100 feddans for each of the 50 villages

A special one-day training program was designed for village bank managers financial analysts extension agents and the manager of the village agricultural cooperative It too was implemented during September The APCP PBDAC and BDAC Training Departments coordinated the preparation and implementation of this program One hundred and sixty-five trainees were trained in three days (cf 331 and 332 begun in September and to be completed in October)

The Land Improvement plan was set up to cover the following steps

1 Orientation meetings for farmers in each village will be carried out during October with the assistance of TAs ST specialists BDAC and MALR

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 12 person-days in Sharqiya governorate

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

The long-term specialists working in this area are theAccounting Specialist (full-time) the MISDP AccountingSpecialist (part-time) the Training Specialists (part-time) andtheir respective counterparts in the PBDAC

2 Main Activities and Progress

Much progress was made towards the completion of thePBDAC and BDAC Chart of Accounts during the quarter The draftmanual was translated and given to counterparts in the Bank forreview and discussion Meetings are scheduled for early Octoberto obtain and incorporate counterpart feedback (cf 511)

An implementation plan for conversion of the Toukh branchsgeneral ledger (GL) system was completed Implementation isscheduled for early November following training in October TheUser Group formed in the BDAC will assist in the implementationand follow-up of the pilot The team anticipates weekly trips toBenha and Toukh during October and daily trips in early Novemberas implementation begins (cf 521)

Senior management also requested that the PBDACs GL beautomated as soon as possible Several procedural changes mustoccur prior to PBDAC implementation The accounts must be codedwith a numbering system and a procedure for receiving the generaljournal entries from the branches of the PBDAC on a routine basismust be developed and implemented The Accounts Department PBDACof the received a personal computer to be used for theimplementation of GL It is being set up in the DepartmentManagers office for the time being (cf 522)

A meeting with EQI representatives in late July paved theway for receiving EQI software documentation in August The taskteam now expects to use portions of that documentation includingaccounting data entry forms and report formats

18

Scopes of work for the Financial Reporting Specialist andLocal Accounting Specialist were completed and are beingdiscussed with counterparts (cf 531)

The Training Needs Assessment for Accounting was completedfollowing discussions with PBDAC Accounting and TrainingDepartment managers (cf 54)

An assetliability (AL) management report format forreporting liquidity position was developed in August incollaboration with the FinanceCapital Management Specialistsubsequently was the subject of discussion with the staff of It

village bank so aas to evaluate the capability of the village bankaccounting system to provide the necessary data As a componentof the report an asset and liability maturity calendar must bedeveloped for classifying those assets and liabilities which havematurity dates at various times throughout the year (cf 552)This will be coordinated with the FinanceCapital Specialist

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Implementation of the PBDAC automated general ledger isnot in the current work plan yet it apparently is stronglydesired by the Chairman implementation is possible

The MIS team believes that simultaneous Above-noted procedural changes mustbe made for successful implementation to occur This may requiresome additional MIS support to ensure adequate training andfollow-up during implementation period

The purposes of this task are (1) to provide assistancefrom design through implementation of automated informationsystems that meet PBDAC and BDAC reporting processing andmanagement requirements (2) to coordinate the priority computerdevelopment that meets the specific APCP goal of automating thebanks accounting systems and (3) to establish the capabilitieswithin the organization to support data processing andinformation management

The focus for the AWP-II year will be on the pilotdevelopment of integrated banking software that meets thespecific project objective of automating the Banks accountingsystems Concentration will be on participative training ofstaff with the APCP team and formal technical instruction inrequired skills in order to establish the required infrastructureto support data processing requirements

The specialists assigned to this task include the MISSpecialist (full-time) nine MISDP experts working in variousspecial areas of computerization (each full-time) and theirrespective counterparts in the PBDAC

2 Main Activities and Progress

The September 12 workshop on the AWP-II brought out anumber of issues regarding MIS on which Bank management wasunclear A follow-up meeting was held with the Chairman andsenior management in which a formal presentation anddemonstration of the General Ledger system was conducted inaddition to a detailed review of the MIS development plan andimplementation strategy The MIS work plan wasapproved then formallyManagement stressed at the meeting the need to pilotthe GL and CreditLoan systems in the Toukh district bank notjust the Benha governorate office This requires earlierprocurement of a supermicro than was originally planned Thiswas reviewed with USAIDEgypt and it was agreed that the teamcould proceed under the recently-approved computer procurementplan (cf 73)

Earlier in the quarter the APCP MISDP team (prime- andsub-contractors) were made voting members of the Banks MISTechnical Committee as a result of the PBDAC Chairmans emphasison coordination of DP requirements with the African DevelopmentFund Project (cf 71)

Due to lack of progress with regard to premises formalMISPremises weekly meetings are also being coordinatedArchitectural plans for the eighth floor data processing area

21

were revised and estimates are being gathered by the Engineering Sector in order to receive USAIDEgypts approval and prepare for tender (cf 715) Benha BDAC premise requirements have been agreed to by the MIS Sector and USAIDEgypt and are pending actual floorplans and estimates

MIS staff training on MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan continued at the local contractors headquarters in Alexandria with three more sessions and thirty DP staff trained Eight additional staff attended UNIX operating system training provided free by NCR (cf 719)

Procurement was a topic of utmost importance throughout the quarter A formal APCP Computer Procurement Plan was finalized and approved by the Bank and USAIDEgypt Under Phase I of the plan four microcomputers were delivered and installed at the PBDAC An RFQ (Request for Quotations) was drafted by Chemonics Procurement Department in Washington and updated in Cairo A final draft was submitted to the Bank and fo-rwarded to USAIDEgypt for review Pending any last-minute revisions the request should be advertised in the United States and locallyduring the first week of October and the document should be distributed to vendors A draft waiver for the additional thirteen mini computers was also developed but later determined unnecessary by the USAIDEgypt legal counsel The overall timeframe remains tight and will require close coordination amongall parties involved (cf 7110)

The MISDP Training Specialist joined the team September 1 to help coordinate numerous course needs between the MIS Sector and the Banks Training Department A second entry level UNIX course was completed at NCR for four of the Banks data processing staff A draft of the overall APCP MIS training plan was completed with the project Training Specialist and approvedby both the MIS Sector and the Training Department The weekly meetings of the MISTraining Committee were formalized againunder the coordination of the new MISDP Training Specialist with a structure that should speed up the scheduling and approval of technical training of MIS staff (cf 717)

Specific PC support and applications development tasks continue toward standardizing hardware and software (cf 72)

o MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan software was purchased in order to standardize ten PCs in the data processing training room Installation was delayed when it was learned that a non-IBM graphics card had been installed in the six PCs purchased during the prior projectReconfiguration should be completed before in-house training courses begin in October

o Financial analysis microcomputers were installed in the Finance area the Savings Department on the main floor the Accounting Department in the PBDAC and in the Data Processing Department of the MIS Sector

22

o Commercial banks and training management PC applicationswere developed and are being tested by Bank staff withproject review They are scheduled to be implementedduring October in user areas

o Farm-related Business mechanization database took twoweeks to input DBase-IV output reports and documentation are now being completed and produced

o Ongoing credit reporting and project USAIDEgypt reportingwas supported for specific PILs

Priorities are clear regarding the development of the largerbanking applications and a pilot The level of effort has beehlincreased to incorporate five additional programming staffMISDP team A pilot will in thefocus on a district bank data entrypoint with consolidated reporting flowing up through the BDAC andonto the PBDAC Critical path items that remain to be done priorto implementation include procurement (operating systemidentified) training and premises The software development isuser-driven and this has been emphasized at the seniormanagement level this month Updates on various applications

23

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

H Planning Budgeting and Reporting (Task Eight)

1 General Description

A purpose of this task is to assist the PBDAC in developing a mission statement and strategic objectives in order to provide long-term direction to the state-wide organization This would also include assisting each of the affiliated banks in developing its own business plan consistent with local priorities and issues as well as consistent with the PBDACs global goals

An additional purpose is to assist the PBDAC to further develop the operational planning and budgeting function by increased use of automation and by ensuring that its focus is on enabling decisions to be made on the effective allocation and efficient use of resources

A final purpose is to assist the Bank in improving the accuracy usefulness and timeliness of financial reporting to management and to assist in developing a Financial Reporting Unit at the PBDAC thereby coordinating the financial reporting from the governorate banks and promoting standardization in reporting formats

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

The Participant Training data annex of the needs assessmentwhich was completed September 30 1989 includes a comprehensiveConversational and Special Purpose English training needsschedule based on the short-term technical training needs

4

determined The Special Purpose English Training Plan and Implementation (cf 91223 in the Task and Deliverables Table annex A) target dates will be determined upon completion of the needs assessment A dialogue will be required between USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to decide on the magnitude and scope of the English language program given the predominantly short-term nature of most overseas training needs

All preparations for a preliminary visit to the Turkish Agricultural Bank (TC Ziraat Bankasi) in Ankara were completed (cf 9124) The visit will be made by the APCP Executive Manager the Chief of Party and the Training Specialist from October 1 to 5 1989 The major purpose of the trip is to determine whether or not the TC Ziraat Bankasi is a suitable agriculturai financial institution for future APCP observational tours and to assess receptiveness to such trips

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 12 person-days in Sharqiya governorate

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

Financial Services Farm-related Business Auditing and MIS Courses were also held in Managerial Development and English Language

o Human Resources Development Scopes of Work for specialists in the task were completed

o Program Support Documents completed included the bilingual AWP-II in first and second draft forms the First Annual ReportSecond Quarterly Report and the micro- and minicomputers RFQs Work progressed on the finalization of the Baseline Study the four volumes of which are set to be printed in late October The long-term EditorDocumentation Specialist was approved hired and fielded during this quarter Seventy project vehicles arrived in Alexandria were transported to Cairo and by quarters end were undergoing testing customs clearance exemption and registration Job descriptions for all Program Support staff and an-organizational chart were completed

A number of new and outstanding problems were identified during the quarter that ended in September They are summarized in the Issues and Problems Chart (annex B to this report) Furthermore problem areas within each task are covered in secticn C of specific technical reports

B Procurement Assistance

Procurement assistance during the third Project Quarter was aimed at obtaining the following items four microcomputers two minicomputers and seventy vehicles These and other smaller efforts are described below

During July a Request for Quotations was prepared for the procurement of four microcomputers The document was circulated to both PBDAC and USAIDEgypt officials It was approved by both organizations and accordingly distributed to local vendors Upon receipt of quotations a Technical Committee was formed that evaluated all offers received (four) and presented a recommended vendor to senior PBDAC management Concurrence was given and an award after negotiation was made to the chosen vendor

With respect to the procurement process for the two minicomputers this was a longer and more complicated process Because of the complexity of USAIDEgypts procurement regulations there was a debate as to how the initial procurement would be handled and what would be the most effective procurement strategy It was decided that a Request for Proposals vs Quotations would be prepared considering the appreciable level of vendor technical assistance and after-sales support required Furthermore it was decided that the initial procurement of two pilot systems had to be clearly linked to the potential subsequent purchase of 13 additional minicomputers Accordingly USAIDEgypt was requested to prepare a proprietary waiver that would allow the initial and follow-on procurement to be

3

standardized on a selected manufacturers equipment Finally itwas agreed that the Chemonics home-office Procurement Departmentwould take the lead in preparing the draft RFQ and relateddocuments

Thus procurement activities during the late part of thequarter focused on the completion of the minicomputers RFQ Thisinvolved several dialogues between MIS and Program Support staffplus the assistance of the HO Procurement Department including ashort visit by the Procurement Agent assigned to the APCPadvertisement will be run in the Commerce Business Daily An

Alsothe request must be approved by USAIDEgypt It is expected thatthese steps will occur during October

The 70 project vehicles were released from customs in theport of Alexandria and arrived in Cairo early in September Atquarters end they await the completion of pre-deliveryinspections and registration in the Banks name

Regarding the potential procurement of a shuttle bus for thePBDAC it was decided to put this on hold until thecomputer-related procurements were substantially completed andthe AWP-II was approved

An appreciable amount of additional offshore procurement isbeing planned for the near future some of it already in thepreliminary processing stage Before Program Support caninitiate discussions with both the PBDAC and USAIDEgyptregarding procurement planning standard operational proceduresmust be fine-tuned with the HO Procurement Department Once theAWP-II is finalized and all existing and newly-proposedtaskssubtasks agreed to then attention can be focused onpreparing a master Project Procurement Plan

C Participant Training Assistance

Work under the Participant TrainingEnglish Languagecomponent of the APCP proceeded on target with the assistance ofthe home-office Participant Training Coordinator Variousmeetings were held with the concerned Chemonics specialists andat USAIDEgypt to clarify administrative and accountingprocedures review Handbook 10 regulations assess the Englishlanguage requirements and review the life of project ParticipantTraining needs as detailed in the needs assessment data annexesThe PT Coordinator prepared and delivered a PT orientationsession to all interested technical specialists on September 24The Coordinator and the Training Specialist attended a September20 briefing at the American University in Cairo regarding thatinstitutions Intensive English language program Severalimportant program changes were reviewed and will be communicatedto the PBDAC Training Department

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 12 person-days in Sharqiya governorate

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

Earlier in the quarter the APCP MISDP team (prime- andsub-contractors) were made voting members of the Banks MISTechnical Committee as a result of the PBDAC Chairmans emphasison coordination of DP requirements with the African DevelopmentFund Project (cf 71)

Due to lack of progress with regard to premises formalMISPremises weekly meetings are also being coordinatedArchitectural plans for the eighth floor data processing area

21

were revised and estimates are being gathered by the Engineering Sector in order to receive USAIDEgypts approval and prepare for tender (cf 715) Benha BDAC premise requirements have been agreed to by the MIS Sector and USAIDEgypt and are pending actual floorplans and estimates

MIS staff training on MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan continued at the local contractors headquarters in Alexandria with three more sessions and thirty DP staff trained Eight additional staff attended UNIX operating system training provided free by NCR (cf 719)

Procurement was a topic of utmost importance throughout the quarter A formal APCP Computer Procurement Plan was finalized and approved by the Bank and USAIDEgypt Under Phase I of the plan four microcomputers were delivered and installed at the PBDAC An RFQ (Request for Quotations) was drafted by Chemonics Procurement Department in Washington and updated in Cairo A final draft was submitted to the Bank and fo-rwarded to USAIDEgypt for review Pending any last-minute revisions the request should be advertised in the United States and locallyduring the first week of October and the document should be distributed to vendors A draft waiver for the additional thirteen mini computers was also developed but later determined unnecessary by the USAIDEgypt legal counsel The overall timeframe remains tight and will require close coordination amongall parties involved (cf 7110)

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

SECTION TWO

DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORTS

Technical assistance reports follow the eleven tasks listed in the AWP-II For a summary of work since the -tart of the AWP-II please refer to the table of tasks and deliverables (annex A of this report) It must be noted that this table reflects the status of the AWP-II as of the last day covered in this report September 30 1989 and does not incorporate changes to the LOE that are set to occur in early October

A Credit (Task One)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of credit operations As described in the AWP-II during the second year of the project the work will focus on (1) improving credit operations by bettering the village banks environment and reviewing credit manuals and revolving lines of credit (2) improving loan classification procedures and credit follow-up policies and procedures (3) improving credit reporting (4) providing credit training support and (5) addressing remedial loan servicing

The long-term specialists contributing to this area during the AWP-II include the Agricultural Loan Specialist (full-time) the Audit and Monitoring Specialist (part-time) and the Training Specialists (part-time) all working in conjunction with their counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

Review of the second Annual Work Plan preparation for the two AWP-II workshops for BDAC Chairmen and the presentation of the credit tasks work plan for July 1989 through June 1990 were important activities in the quarter Significant comments from the workshops participants regarding the work plan related to the importance of frequent visits to the governorates the need for a standard credit procedures manual that can be easily updated and although lending activities at the PBDAC are organized into separate credit and investment and development sectors the need to apply uniform lending criteria to both sectors

Discussions were held with Qalubiya BDAC staff on village bank equipment and furniture needs and a proposal was presented to the BDAC for study and comments Additional governorates will be visited in October to establish a representative needs assessment (cf 111 in the Tasks and Deliverables Table annex A)

6

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The inadequacy of the current accounting system now hasthe organizations full attention however a revised accountingsystem is not foreseen for this AWP Meanwhile a review ofoperations and systems development has revealed the need for aparallel manual maturity calendar at village banks and branchesVarious reports could be derived from this system Developmentand implementation of a maturity calendar could have asignificant impact on this tasks level of effort Lack of adequate transportation is seriously hampering thetasks activities

Delays encountered with the hiring of a Local BankingSpecialist might jeopardize deliverycompletion dates

17

The long-term specialists working in this area are theAccounting Specialist (full-time) the MISDP AccountingSpecialist (part-time) the Training Specialists (part-time) andtheir respective counterparts in the PBDAC

2 Main Activities and Progress

Much progress was made towards the completion of thePBDAC and BDAC Chart of Accounts during the quarter The draftmanual was translated and given to counterparts in the Bank forreview and discussion Meetings are scheduled for early Octoberto obtain and incorporate counterpart feedback (cf 511)

An implementation plan for conversion of the Toukh branchsgeneral ledger (GL) system was completed Implementation isscheduled for early November following training in October TheUser Group formed in the BDAC will assist in the implementationand follow-up of the pilot The team anticipates weekly trips toBenha and Toukh during October and daily trips in early Novemberas implementation begins (cf 521)

Senior management also requested that the PBDACs GL beautomated as soon as possible Several procedural changes mustoccur prior to PBDAC implementation The accounts must be codedwith a numbering system and a procedure for receiving the generaljournal entries from the branches of the PBDAC on a routine basismust be developed and implemented The Accounts Department PBDACof the received a personal computer to be used for theimplementation of GL It is being set up in the DepartmentManagers office for the time being (cf 522)

A meeting with EQI representatives in late July paved theway for receiving EQI software documentation in August The taskteam now expects to use portions of that documentation includingaccounting data entry forms and report formats

18

Scopes of work for the Financial Reporting Specialist andLocal Accounting Specialist were completed and are beingdiscussed with counterparts (cf 531)

The focus for the AWP-II year will be on the pilotdevelopment of integrated banking software that meets thespecific project objective of automating the Banks accountingsystems Concentration will be on participative training ofstaff with the APCP team and formal technical instruction inrequired skills in order to establish the required infrastructureto support data processing requirements

The specialists assigned to this task include the MISSpecialist (full-time) nine MISDP experts working in variousspecial areas of computerization (each full-time) and theirrespective counterparts in the PBDAC

2 Main Activities and Progress

The September 12 workshop on the AWP-II brought out anumber of issues regarding MIS on which Bank management wasunclear A follow-up meeting was held with the Chairman andsenior management in which a formal presentation anddemonstration of the General Ledger system was conducted inaddition to a detailed review of the MIS development plan andimplementation strategy The MIS work plan wasapproved then formallyManagement stressed at the meeting the need to pilotthe GL and CreditLoan systems in the Toukh district bank notjust the Benha governorate office This requires earlierprocurement of a supermicro than was originally planned Thiswas reviewed with USAIDEgypt and it was agreed that the teamcould proceed under the recently-approved computer procurementplan (cf 73)

Earlier in the quarter the APCP MISDP team (prime- andsub-contractors) were made voting members of the Banks MISTechnical Committee as a result of the PBDAC Chairmans emphasison coordination of DP requirements with the African DevelopmentFund Project (cf 71)

Due to lack of progress with regard to premises formalMISPremises weekly meetings are also being coordinatedArchitectural plans for the eighth floor data processing area

21

were revised and estimates are being gathered by the Engineering Sector in order to receive USAIDEgypts approval and prepare for tender (cf 715) Benha BDAC premise requirements have been agreed to by the MIS Sector and USAIDEgypt and are pending actual floorplans and estimates

MIS staff training on MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan continued at the local contractors headquarters in Alexandria with three more sessions and thirty DP staff trained Eight additional staff attended UNIX operating system training provided free by NCR (cf 719)

Procurement was a topic of utmost importance throughout the quarter A formal APCP Computer Procurement Plan was finalized and approved by the Bank and USAIDEgypt Under Phase I of the plan four microcomputers were delivered and installed at the PBDAC An RFQ (Request for Quotations) was drafted by Chemonics Procurement Department in Washington and updated in Cairo A final draft was submitted to the Bank and fo-rwarded to USAIDEgypt for review Pending any last-minute revisions the request should be advertised in the United States and locallyduring the first week of October and the document should be distributed to vendors A draft waiver for the additional thirteen mini computers was also developed but later determined unnecessary by the USAIDEgypt legal counsel The overall timeframe remains tight and will require close coordination amongall parties involved (cf 7110)

The MISDP Training Specialist joined the team September 1 to help coordinate numerous course needs between the MIS Sector and the Banks Training Department A second entry level UNIX course was completed at NCR for four of the Banks data processing staff A draft of the overall APCP MIS training plan was completed with the project Training Specialist and approvedby both the MIS Sector and the Training Department The weekly meetings of the MISTraining Committee were formalized againunder the coordination of the new MISDP Training Specialist with a structure that should speed up the scheduling and approval of technical training of MIS staff (cf 717)

Specific PC support and applications development tasks continue toward standardizing hardware and software (cf 72)

o MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan software was purchased in order to standardize ten PCs in the data processing training room Installation was delayed when it was learned that a non-IBM graphics card had been installed in the six PCs purchased during the prior projectReconfiguration should be completed before in-house training courses begin in October

o Financial analysis microcomputers were installed in the Finance area the Savings Department on the main floor the Accounting Department in the PBDAC and in the Data Processing Department of the MIS Sector

22

o Commercial banks and training management PC applicationswere developed and are being tested by Bank staff withproject review They are scheduled to be implementedduring October in user areas

o Farm-related Business mechanization database took twoweeks to input DBase-IV output reports and documentation are now being completed and produced

o Ongoing credit reporting and project USAIDEgypt reportingwas supported for specific PILs

Priorities are clear regarding the development of the largerbanking applications and a pilot The level of effort has beehlincreased to incorporate five additional programming staffMISDP team A pilot will in thefocus on a district bank data entrypoint with consolidated reporting flowing up through the BDAC andonto the PBDAC Critical path items that remain to be done priorto implementation include procurement (operating systemidentified) training and premises The software development isuser-driven and this has been emphasized at the seniormanagement level this month Updates on various applications

23

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

H Planning Budgeting and Reporting (Task Eight)

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

Review of the Banks new Credit Policy and Procedures Manualwas begun A number of paragraphs were identified which need tobe taken up with the translators to determine their precisemeaning On the other hand the manual which has now beentranslated is not an approved copy and a number ofchanges may bemade in the Arabic version before its official presentation tothe governorates (cf 112)

In Qalubiya governorate inquiries were made about revolvinglines of credit which were reported to have been establishedduring the SFPP or APCP bridging period However such lines ofcredit had not been started in this governorate Visits toAssyout and Sharqiya governorates are being planned to lookfurther into this matter (cf 114)

In collaboration with the Audit and Monitoring Specialist adiscussion paper on loan classification was circulated to seniorBank management and counterparts for comments and feedback Dueto changes in the Audit and Monitoring Specialists work plan ithas been agreed that a short-term Loan Classification Specialistwill be hired to assist in establishing a loan classification system in the Bank under the Agricultural Loan Specialistssupervision A draft scope of work for this specialist wasdistributed for comments (cf 121)

In September it was agreed that a task force will beappointed to prepare a concept paper for a suitableclassification system to be sent to the BDACs for comments Inaddition target dates were set for approval of the concept paper(November 1 1989) the distribution of guidelines and procedures(December 1 1989) the beginning of training (January 1 1990)and the beginning of the systems implementation (April 1 1990)Various meetings were held with investment sector staff to selecta suitable classification system for the Bank These meetingscontributed a great deal towards a better understanding of the purpose of loan classification (cf 121)

Field trips were made to Qalubiya (two days) and Giza (oneday) governorates to review credit reporting as preparation forestablishing pilot credit reporting units in these twogovernorates In both governorates some staff have been trainedin the use of PCs for credit reporting purposes Ideallyhowever the staff who are now manually preparing theconsolidated governorate reports should be the same employees whouse the PCs and thus should be trained in their use (cf132)

Two PC support staff have been hired as part of thecontracts MISDP team to be working in the PC credit reportingarea in close coordination with the Agricultural Loan Specialist

Monthly APCP lending reports were reviewed and suggestionsfor an improved format were introduced (cf 134) According tothe data extracted front the reports a total of LE 48191877 was

7

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

H Planning Budgeting and Reporting (Task Eight)

1 General Description

A purpose of this task is to assist the PBDAC in developing a mission statement and strategic objectives in order to provide long-term direction to the state-wide organization This would also include assisting each of the affiliated banks in developing its own business plan consistent with local priorities and issues as well as consistent with the PBDACs global goals

An additional purpose is to assist the PBDAC to further develop the operational planning and budgeting function by increased use of automation and by ensuring that its focus is on enabling decisions to be made on the effective allocation and efficient use of resources

A final purpose is to assist the Bank in improving the accuracy usefulness and timeliness of financial reporting to management and to assist in developing a Financial Reporting Unit at the PBDAC thereby coordinating the financial reporting from the governorate banks and promoting standardization in reporting formats

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

granted in the period January 1 to June 30 1989 using APCPcriteria This benefited 177926 farmers The average loan granted in this period was for LE 271

By quarters end the following facts regarding credit reporting were uncovered by the projects credit team (cf135)

o APCP lending data are strictly separated fr9m the regularbank lending reports however in some cases APCP lendingand regular bank lending should be consolidated to ensure a fair picture of the Banks lending activities In factthe seasonal report on unsubsidized and subsidized lendingdoes not include APCP lending and therefore does not present a correct picture of all unsubsidized lending

o Monthly reports on APCP lending provide accumulated datasince the start of the APCP in the following categoriestotal number of clients total number of loans total disbursements total amounts due total repayments andthe repayment percentage per lending purpose To offer more meaningful information on APCP lending these reportsshould instead provide data on movements during a particular month and also give the amount of loansoutstanding at the end of the month Furthermoreregarding crop production loans distinction should bemade between the summer winter and Nile seasons Itshould further be noted that during field visits data on amounts due were found to be reported only when clients turned up to repay the installment in part or fullytherefore the data provided on amounts due and repaymentrate may not be accurate

o BDACs and village banks visited indicated that they have no written instructions to help fill out the reporting formats

o In general aging reports on delinquent loans are not provided

o Reporting on lending per type of collateral has not been established

o Although it is required to report in detail all loans in cases where the combined value per client exceeds LE20000 only individual loans of LE 20000 or more perclient are being reported

o Report formats may vary considerably per governorate forexample reports on disbursements in some governoratesalso includedata on repayments whereas in other governorates repayment data are reported separately onforms issued by the collection department This diversityincreases the work load for village bank staff and decreases the quality of the data provided

8

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

2 A six-day technical training program on wheat mechanization for the extension agents of the 50 villages including seedbed preparation laser leveling and sowing with seed drills was set up

3 An additional two-week technical training program was set up for eight extension department mechanization specialists one from each markaz These programs are to e implemented in the El-Maamoura Farm Mechanization Training Center of Alexandria With the cooperation of the AMRI (the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute) and a short-term specialist the TAs have managed to obtain financing through the NARP project

4 Village bank staff are required to collect farmers loan requests to finance the cost of the recommended field operations at commercial rates

5 A standard form designed by the TAs is to be used by both extension agents and village bank officials

6 A plan was set up to strengthen cooperation among farmers in the use of farm machinery already in villages and to encourage them to own new machines Until the farmers are

13

ready to buy such machines the AMRI Mechanization Company and the Spectra Physics Company will supply the necessary technical operation services at commercial rates Machines to be used and available in the village are the disc harrow rotary tillers laser leveling equipment and seed drills

7 During implementation extension agents are requested to prepare large plots (from several neighboring small holdings) to ensure the economical use of farm machinery

In the area of small-scale agroindustry the FRB team and the Investment Manager of the Daqahliya BDAC visited the facilities of a grain mill located in El-Salamony village of Mansoura markaz The mill is 75 years old and the owner wanted to modernize and rehabilitate his plant The team will consider his request as a potential project of this subtask (cf 35)

The TAs and short termers spent a total of 22 person-days in Daqahliya governorate

(b) Activities in Sharoiva Governorate Farm Mechanization

In Sharqiya the mechanization activity is expanding Fifty villages were selected in six markazes for mechanized wheat planting

Several orientation preparatory and planning meetings were held with concerned staff of the BDAC and the MALR A one-day orientation program was designed to instruct village bank staff extension agents agricultural cooperative managers and officials from the Bank and the MALR at the district level The design and contents of the orientation program were similar to those of the Daqahliya mechanization courses described above

(c) Activities in Gharbiva Governotate Seed Distribution

During September the TAs visited three corn seed producing companies in Cairo where they explained the philosophy of the APCP regarding a suggested corn seed handling system (The companies are Pioneer Production the National Company for Seed Production and the Egyptian Company for Seed Production) The first two companies have shown their willingness to cooperate whereas the last one needs further

14

orientation A visit was subsequently made to Gharbiya governorate the pilot governorate for this activity where the TAs met with the BDAC Chairman and other concerned staff to discuss methods and suggestions to set up a plan for implementation The Chairman showed his willingneAs to implement the project to relinguish the Banks role in distributing corn seed and to finance the distribution agent(s) as well as the farmers (cf 342)

(d) Farm Equipment Survey

During September the short-term Farm Equipment Specialist in cooperation with the MIS team designed a computerized database program The objective of this survey was to establish a record of farm equipment that will be available to the PBDAC and BDACs The information will help the Bank to provide its clients with information relative to farm machinery and equipment including location prices spare parts maintenance shops etc Such information will help the Banks clients make right decisions on the selection of appropriate farm machinery The PBDAC provided the FRB team with four of its Mechanization Department staff to assist the short-term specialist in the survey

By quarters end the first draft of the final report was prepared it is expected that the report will be reviewed by TAs and delivered to the PBDAC during October Findings show that there are 92 dealers 188 distributors and 47 local private sector manufacturers of farm equipment

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

o Although preparation and consolidation of the numerous reports requires a lot of work and receives considerable attention from middle management it appears that upon completion most reports are not read and analyzed

o Data quality remains a concern Comparison of the June 1989 monthly APCP lending reports with May 1989 data showed considerable decreases in June figures in a number of governorates which is impossible in a reporting system based on accumulated data

In the Credit Reporting area it is noted that quality and timeliness of information appear to be less important than collecting high quantities of data serious effortA should be undertaken to determine the type and detail of information needed by management

The credit tasks Training Needs Assessment was completed and discussed with the head of the Training-Department (cf 141) Four additional credit training courses which had been presented for translation were reviewed and areas requiring explanations or additional translation were identified (cf 142)

In the area of remedial loan servicing a draft scope of work for the long-term local-hire specialist was developed and circulated for comments during August (cf 151)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

Regarding the loan classification system important issues raised so far center on (1) whether the cut-off date for the classification of a portfolio should coincide with the end of the Banks fiscal year or with any months end and (2) whether the classification of a portfolio should be done by the village banks credit and lending staff or by audit staff (cf 12)

Regarding the review of credit reporting it was found that present reports are too statistical and aged to be a meaningful credit decision tool Statistical reports should be simplified and new global credit reports of the outstanding delinquencies of repayments should be developed This will require a major PBDAC decision and change (cf 135)

B Specialized Financial Services (Task Two)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to develop or improve the efficiency of specialized financial services and to increase the managerial skills of Bank staff so as to improve financial services to rural clients As described in the AWP-II the activities in this task include improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of extension services provided by the MALR to Bank clients by (a) improving coordination between the MALR and the Bank (b) improving the contents of current technical packages

9

(C) adding new technical packages in areas where the Bank is exposed or where there are new lending opportunities and (d) ensuring validity of technical packages by instituting verification surveys All of the above activitiesare in support of the implementation efforts of the project which preceded APCP As such they are well established actvities

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

(e) Determination of Needs and Operational Costs of Farm Equipment at the Village Bank Level

The short-term Farm Mechanization Specialist finalized his report during August which includes information on the following

(1) the BDACs methodology and procedures for predicting a villages need for different farm machinery taking into consideration

o the current fleet of machinery in place o the crop rotation o the level of mechanization expected for various crops

in the rotation

(2) the procedure for estimating the operational cost of farm machinery taking into consideration field and variable costs a few examples were given

(3) the principles to take into consideration when deciding the feasibility of owning a particular farm machine

15

With this information a village bank will be able to assess the credit risks related to machinery financing

(f) Feasibility Study for Wheat Mechanization

A study was completed which shows thetechnical recommendations for proper seedbed preparation forwheat planting and the expected increase in production and netreturn for farmers It will be delivered to the PBDAC inOctober

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The team encountered lack of cooperation on the part ofsome branch managers and village bank staff in both Daqahliya andSharqiya This issue was brought to the attention of thechairmen of both BDACs

During the second Annual Work Plan conference the teamrequested the PBDAC to assign two of the staff in each BDAC towork full-time for FRB and to be trained in FRB concepts Nobodyhas been assigned yet despite the PBDACs approval

As of quarters end the main problem facing the FRB team islack of proper transportation Four vehicles should be availableto the FRB team for field trips during the pilot projectimplementation and intensive fieldon-the-job training period

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals

In addition to the above the following two activities which are new to this task are included in the draft AWP-II (1) improving the efficiency and effectiveness of commodity trading and commercial services provided by the Bank and identifying means to increase private sector participation and (2) expanding the client base of the Bank by developing a rural-based small-scale industry lending program

The specialists contributing to this area during Quarter Three of the APCP were the Farm Management Specialist (full-time) the local Training Specialist (part-time) the Bank Economic Specialist (initial three-month assignment later to be converted to long-term Bank Economist) and the short-term Agricultural Economic Survey Specialist (full-time) Soon to be hired are the short-term Livestock Administrator and Livestock (Dairy) Specialist Also a long-term Commodities Trading Specialist will be hired in October All will be working in conjunction with their respective counterparts

2 Main Activities and Progress

The draft for the Specialized Financial Services section of the AWP-II was prepared and presented to the leaders of the Bank including the Executive Directors during the July 10 and September 12 workshops however the final approval of the level of effort of technical assistance has not been given as of quarters end This leaves the activities of sections 26 (Horticultural Package) 27 (Livestock Package) and 29 (Rural-based Small-scale Industries) of the SFS in doubt [Editors Note The Bank subsequently decided to eliminate subtasks 26 and 29 from the AWP-II although they may be included in fature work plans]

The Training of Trainers for Farm Management was conducted during July under the supervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator (the local Training Specialist) The graduates of TOT are now involved in the Winter Season Training of the 5111 extension staff (cf 211)

The Extension Technical Services (ETS) has to be defined by the Farm Management Executive Director of APCP and the Under Secretary of Extension in the MALR Several proposals and general meetings have been held however final design and responsibility of ETS must be determined through future discussions The ETS team is considering implementation of training of extension staff in computer use for extension reporting and for the preparation of technical reports needed by the PBDAC for lending (cf 221 and 222)

10

By quarters end the Farm Management Survey Specialistcompleted a sampling framework survey methodology andprocedures for subcontracting These were combined into anaction memorandum for approval by the PBDAC and APCP Incoordination with the newly-hired Bank Economic Specialist workbegan in the preparation of a survey questionnaire (cf 232)

Winter Crop Package training began in September 1989 Thiswill encompass

o 5111 extension staff o 20444 persondays of trainingo 12 governorates (soon to be expanded to 14) o 101 branches o 344 village banks o 2712 villages o 2348231 cultivated feddans o 3883 of the cultivated area of Egypt

The Winter Crop Package training will include revised croppackages budgets and reprinting of pamphlets The trainingprojections and financial plans were reexamined under thesupervision of the Farm Management Training Facilitator and arevised financial training plan was issued with 687947 persondays of training projected in the next five years (cf 241)

The vegetable packages are being printed Courses are beingdesigned for 9546 persondays of training as part of the AWP-IIAs of the end of September training in vegetables was conductedfor 2356 person-days (cf 252)

A Commodities Import Specialist was identified in Augustand is expected to arrive in October Several important contactshave already been made in the United States by the expert andinformation has been obtained about the Malvacaea seed problem in corn imports to Egypt (cf 281)

In summary the AWP-II has been reviewed by the PBDAC andall the scopes of work for the required experts have beenwritten Pending the PBDAC Chairmans final review therecruitment and arrival of the experts should begin in October

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

First lack of the level of effort approval hasresulted in a one-month delay in subtasks 26 27 and 29[Editors Note Only 27--the Livestock Package--was approved inOctober] Secondly field follow-up of extension activities wascurtailed due to the fact that CEFUT is now conducting trainingcourses for the Winter Season Thirdly the project vehicleshave out-of-date registrations which hampers field travel

MIS staff training on MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan continued at the local contractors headquarters in Alexandria with three more sessions and thirty DP staff trained Eight additional staff attended UNIX operating system training provided free by NCR (cf 719)

Procurement was a topic of utmost importance throughout the quarter A formal APCP Computer Procurement Plan was finalized and approved by the Bank and USAIDEgypt Under Phase I of the plan four microcomputers were delivered and installed at the PBDAC An RFQ (Request for Quotations) was drafted by Chemonics Procurement Department in Washington and updated in Cairo A final draft was submitted to the Bank and fo-rwarded to USAIDEgypt for review Pending any last-minute revisions the request should be advertised in the United States and locallyduring the first week of October and the document should be distributed to vendors A draft waiver for the additional thirteen mini computers was also developed but later determined unnecessary by the USAIDEgypt legal counsel The overall timeframe remains tight and will require close coordination amongall parties involved (cf 7110)

The MISDP Training Specialist joined the team September 1 to help coordinate numerous course needs between the MIS Sector and the Banks Training Department A second entry level UNIX course was completed at NCR for four of the Banks data processing staff A draft of the overall APCP MIS training plan was completed with the project Training Specialist and approvedby both the MIS Sector and the Training Department The weekly meetings of the MISTraining Committee were formalized againunder the coordination of the new MISDP Training Specialist with a structure that should speed up the scheduling and approval of technical training of MIS staff (cf 717)

Specific PC support and applications development tasks continue toward standardizing hardware and software (cf 72)

o MS-DOS Arabic and MultiPlan software was purchased in order to standardize ten PCs in the data processing training room Installation was delayed when it was learned that a non-IBM graphics card had been installed in the six PCs purchased during the prior projectReconfiguration should be completed before in-house training courses begin in October

o Financial analysis microcomputers were installed in the Finance area the Savings Department on the main floor the Accounting Department in the PBDAC and in the Data Processing Department of the MIS Sector

required in order to turn over software maintenance role the subcontractor on the team will maintain these systems through December (cf 712)

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

The MISDP team continues to be affected by the level of support required for procurement premises and training The critical path impact relative to offshore procurement needs to be addressed as a top priority in the Washington Procurement Department Communication of issues and changes in an RFQ requires a lot of time and there should be more sensitivity for the local level of effort required by MIS and Program Support TAs to finalize an RFQ

Premises requirements will need constant monitoring MIS training will begin to move more rapidly with a dedicated staff assigned to the task but lack of facilities couldhamper the daily work of PBDACs MIS staff

An additional local-hire MIS Specialist is needed in order to facilitate the gap between systems documentation and operating procedures The scope of work approval and recruitment for this position should occur in October

2 Main Activities and Progress

Major progress was achieved on the APCP needs assessment and local (In-country) and overseas (ParticipantTraining) plans (cf 91)

o Training Needs Assessment (cf 911) The needs assessment is comprised of five data annexes and descriptive narrative outlining the assessment methodology In-country and Participant Training strategyand technical area overviews As of September 30 1989all data annexes were completed This involved comprehensive revisions of several technical areas in September including MIS SFS Accounting Management andTOT The narrative is targeted for completion October 301989 As the Baseline Report highlights many of the keytraining needs by technical area the training needs assessment narrative will serve to supplement this report

o Local APCP Training Plan (cf 9L2U Completion of a first draft In-country Training Plan by September 281989 constituted a major activity for the PBDAC TrainingDepartment and Training Specialists during September The deliverable type is amended from recommendations to reflect the plan itself due to the level of effort required

The following events require comment The TrainingDepartment completed the Arabic version of the In-countryplan for the period July 1989 through June 1990 The Training Specialists provided their recommendations duringthree meetings held on September 14 17 and 18 The planwas then submitted to USAIDEgypt with a letter in Arabic signed by the APCP Executive Manager requesting therequired increase in PIL 7 to fund the planned activityUpon receipt by USAIDEgypt the Chemonics TrainingSpecialists were requested by both USAIDEgypt and PBDAC to assist the Training Department to create spreadsheetsof the plan in English providing additional data such as life of project and plan persondays planned number ofsessions by quarter and MIS training activities which hadbeen excluded being earmarked for fundinj uhder the African Development Fund USAIDEgypt also requestedassistance to clarify and justify certain trainingactivities At this point it was agreed that theoriginal funding request letter would remain as is pendingUSAIDEgypts review of the In-country plan in EnglishSubsequently the Training Specialist spent the majorityof the week of September 24 working with the TrainingDepartment to meet USAIDEgypts requirements

As of the end of September USAIDEgypt received the firstdraft plan and was reviewing its adequacy for the requested PIL increase The plan included an annex detailing planned MIS training activities The plan istargeted for completion incorporating USAIDEgypt feedback

26

on October 15 1989 It is noteworthy that thisIn-country plan is the first submitted to USAIDEgypt fromPBDAC since PIL 7s establishment over two years ago Itis critically important to USAIDEgypt as both ajustification for the committment of over LE one millionin funds and as an indicator to track APCP training progress

In addition to the In-country plan the TrainingSpecialists assisted the Training Department to create aQuarterly Progress Report format on Lotus deliveredSeptember 28 The data fields were reviewed withUSAIDEgypt to assure all requirements are Aiet TheQuarterly Progress Report format is modeled after theIn-country plan format

J Human Resources Development (Task Ten)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to assist the Bank to begina human resources development (HRD) process through the proposedstrategic planning process

The HRD strategic plan is complementary to anoverallstrategic plan which is currently lacking If Bank managementmoves quickly on an overall strategic plan it may be possible tocommit to a strategic mission statement and initial objectivesnear the end of the AWP-II Thus HRD activities ie manpowerand personnel surveys would follow after that commitmentPlans are for specialists in this task to include ashort-term expatriate HRD Specialist (full-time) a short-termlocal HRD Specialist (full-time) and to same degree all otherTAs all working with counterparts from the Bank

2 Main Activities and Progress

Scopes of work were completed and the new separatetask was presented by the Training Specialist and approved byPBDAC leadership at the September 12 AWP-II workshop HoweverBank leaders have stated that they prefer to defer this activityto the Fourth Quarter of the work plan following the outcome ofthe Strategic Planning Workshop which is scheduled for February1990

K Program Support (Task Eleven)

1 General Description

The purpose of this task is to support the technicalassistance program by supplying administrative editingtranslation production travel arrangements and other services

The long-term specialists working in this program area arethe Administrative Specialist (full-time) theEditorDocumentation Specialist (full-time) the Chief cf Party(part-time) and their counterparts in the PBDAC They are aidedby a professional Chief Project Accountant two professionaltranslators and a support staff consisting of an AdministrativeOfficer Office Support Manager Accountant AdministrativeAssistant Secretaries Receptionist Messengers and Drivers

2 Main Activities and Progress

While the two-month period of July-August wascharacterized by many staff members availing themselves of annualleave Program Support was engaged in a variety of activitiesthat were aimed at providing long-term operational systemsequipment or facilities to support programming endeavorsincluded in the second Annual Work Plan

31

Three documents consumed a significant portion of ProgramSupport resources during the latter part of the quarter therevised version of the second Annual Work Plan the second draftedition of the Baseline Report and the minicomputer Request forQuotations (RFQ)

On September 12 Chemonics hosted a workshop presentation ofthe AWP-II to PBDAC senior management and the BDAC ChairmenPBDAC counterparts with the assistance of Program Supporthandled all necessary arrangements for the conference room

With the return of the EditorDocumentation Specialist on along-term basis much of the outstanding back-log of publicationswas processed By the close of the quarter for the first timesince the beginning of its contract Chemonics was essentially upto date on all of its reporting requirements

Job descriptions for all Program Support staff members werefinalized during September and a Program Support organizationalchart was prepared in final draft form

The two shipments with 70 project vehicles arrived at theport of Alexandria in mid-July Early in September the localclearing agent arranged for the release from customs of thevehicles and their subsequent transfer to the PBDAC storagecompound in Helwan (south of Cairo) What remains now is to haveArab American Vehicles perform the full pre-delivery inspectionfor the 38 Cherokees and Mansour Chevrolet to do the same for the32 Astros In addition the regist-ation of all vehicles must befinalized in the Banks name

3 IssuesProblemsRevisions

(a) Baseline Report

The Draft One version of the Baseline Report(printed July 1981) served as the paper reference base for muchof the AWP-II Accordingly once the AWP-II was released theurgency to print a final version with full set of annexes wasgreatly diminished While the document will be produced in finalform in the very near future other immediate reporting andediting deadlines must take precedence In the meantime thedraft volume one (of four) of the Baseline Report is availableupon request to interested parties The[Editors NoteBaseline Report--volumes one through four--was printed in finalform October 24 1989]

(b) Minicomputer Request for Quotations

The technical specification section of the RFQ forthe two minicomputers underwent almost no alteration from theRFQs inception due to past programming commitments and decisionsby both the Bank and USAIDEgypt What underwent revision wasthe procurement strategy embodied in the RFQ and the documents

32

boiler-plate The process whereby the RFQ was preparedhighlighted several work areas in the procurement cycle now thatthey have been identified remedial actions can be undertaken

(c) Team Transport Needs

Five of the six vehicles on loan from the PBDACare grounded awaiting the renewal of registration At the sametime the 12 vehicles promised from the incoming 70 new projectvehicles have not been delivered This is due to the inabiityof the selected clearing agent to handle agreed-upon clearingregistration and servicing tasks While renting taxis hasallowed Program Support to meet the day-to-day transport needs ofthe project this arrangement has been less than satisfactory toall concerned

(d) Proqram Support Expansion

Throughout September discussions cbntinued withPBDAC senior management with respect to level-of-effort ontask-by-task basis for the AWP-II a Office space will berequired the space will have to be furnished and equipped andstaff will have to be hired

levels-of-effort All of this takes time Once neware finalized the necessary resources should beallocated to Program Support Otherwise there may be a highlevel of frustration felt by all concerned

(e) Work Permits

There remain only two outstanding national staffwork permits--they are delayed as the result of proceduralissues Regarding expatriate staff work permits it is hopedthat they can be finalized by the labor lawyer to whom they arebeing assigned during October

(f) FilingSystem

Status remains unchanged from last quartersreport however now that job descriptions have been finalizedthe revamping of the filing system will be the next major ProgramSupport project to be undertaken

(g) Kardex Inventory System

During September a meeting was arranged betweenLD-II project officials and the head of the PBDAC Motor Pooldiscuss Kardex toKardex is a spare-parts inventory system usedin conjunction with a wide ranging operations and maintenancesystem that has been developed by Chemonics for itA LD-II projectclient ORDEV Takeii in its full context the Kardex System inits entirety could be implemented within the PBDAC and itsbranches However an implementation effort of this magnitudewould require at minimum several years and considerableresources What is envisioned at this time isof the implementationa very basic vehicle spare parts system within the PBDAC on a

33

pilot basis Throughout October discussions will continue as to how best to approach Kardex with respect to the PBDACs immediate needs for vehicle spare parts

(h) Vehicle Spare Parts

The initial visits undertaken to Arab AmericanVehicles and Mansour Chevrolet have convinced both PBDAC officials and Program Support staff that there exists a definite need to import fast-moving spare parts for both the Cherokees andAstros The Astros are more critical than the Cherokees You can find a limited range of Cherokee spares in Cairo (eg oil filters) however the availability of Astro spares is extremelyproblematical Fast-moving spare part orders must be finalized and initiated out of the United States soon otherwise the project could find itself in a situation where new vehicles will soon be grounded for lack of spare parts (ie essential filters) or worse yet vehicles will be driven in excess beyondrecommended servicing intervals
