reforms
One or more workshops with Social Partners are organised to:
 validate the priorities identified by the assessment report,
 agree on policy positions,
 define a reform action plan.
How?
 Inviting Social Partners
 Arrange an appropriate venue
 Preparing facilitation (the facilitator needs to be expert at
policy making)

reforms
monitoring framework
When reforms are designed, they are always based on
imperfect information and understanding.
To verify that reforms generate the expected results, a
monitoring and result measurement framework needs to
be set up.
The standard developed by the Donor Committee for
Enterprise Development (DCED) is adopted.
Methodology: ADVOCACY
consensus
reforms
monitoring framework
The DCED standard helps practitioners to:
 clearly articulate the expected results chain (i.e. the logic of the work),
 to systematically set and monitor indicators which generate
approximate numbers for impact that have credibility.
Indicators are classified depending on the fact that they measure:
 end impacts on the economy, on the poor, or on the firms,
 intermediate outcomes of overall reforms,
 results of reforms within specific domains (e.g. business
registration and licensing).

Strengths
METHODOLOGY: EESE combines a variety of data collection and
diagnostic techniques, including a literature review, enterprise surveys,
focus groups, statistical analysis of primary and secondary data, and
consultations with expert s. The perceptions survey includes both
employers and workers as respondents.
DIALOGUE: The
formulation of policy
recommendations is
grounded on consensus
between workers,
employers and
government.
SCOPE: The assessment based on 17
criteria goes far beyond the scope of
other assessments, and attempts to
provide an accurate and
comprehensive picture of the issues
affecting the performance and
sustainability of enterprises.
