/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ameria CJSC in association with Breckenhill, a
Canadian consulting company, is engaged in a World Bank Institutional
Development Fund funded project aimed at developing effective public
administration system through introduction of reliable, functional
and objective performance appraisal system. Ameria and Breckenhill
support the government in building institutional capacity, knowledge
and skills to describe and optimize business procedures and functions
within the government, and based thereon to revise the functional
duties (job descriptions) of civil service positions, as well as to
introduce operative appraisal mechanisms for the work performed by
the civil servants. In the scope of this project consultants will
assist the RA government in developing the basis for the national
system of monitoring and appraisal (M&A). The overall duration of
the project is 18 months.

Objectives of this project are creating an effective public
administration system in accordance with the best international
standards. The project supports the Government in establishment of
such system in staff of RA Government and 6 pilot ministries (the RA
Ministry of Healthcare, the RA Ministry of Economy, the RA Ministry of
Culture, the RA Ministry of Territorial Administration, the RA Ministry
of Transport and Communication and the RA Ministry of Finance).

The project concentrates its activities on analyses of current
procedures of beneficiary institutions and structural units,
introduction of new business procedures in beneficiary institutions,
as well as building the monitoring capacity. Ameria will also develop
methodical manuals for analysis and describing business procedures,
elaboration of performance management indicators and implementation
of performance evaluations, as well as will provide thematic trainings
to relevant governmental officials.

The project will result in raising the capacities of beneficiary
institutions in analyses of business procedures, development of
work plans at all institutional levels, elaboration of performance
evaluation indicators and conducting of performance evaluations. The
project will highly contribute to the ensuring more effective
and efficient work of the state institutions. As a follow-up this
experience will be furthermore rolled out to all other governmental
structures and institutions.
