Audit of USAID/Vietnam's Competitiveness Initiative Phase II

USAID/Vietnam develop and implement a clear plan of action to expedite the approval process of the Vietnam Competitiveness Initiative Phase II with the Government of Vietnam.

USAID/Vietnam work with the contractor to finalize and approve a monitoring and evaluation plan that includes expected results with illustrative indicators, midterm milestones or benchmarks, and end-of-project results, as well as clear definitions, data sources, and collection methodologies for each indicator.

USAID/Vietnam revise its performance management plan to be consistent with the approved monitoring and evaluation plan.

USAID/Vietnam amend the Vietnam Competitiveness Initiative Phase II task order contract to require the contractor to submit periodic progress reports that clearly convey key activities/initiatives accomplished, achievements versus targets of program indicators, and outstanding issues and implementation problems and options for resolving them.
