Expanded the existing ODA database system (ODA- mis.gov.la) in Lao PDR and developed a "Regional Cooperation Project Monitoring Data Center" to systematically monitor and evaluate regional cooperation projects, including Mekong- ROK cooperation.

The new system aimed to achieve project data collection, performance evaluation, information sharing, and experience exchange through a shared database platform.

The project content included rapid requirements assessment, database design and development, user training, dashboard and website construction, and enhanced project monitoring and evaluation (M&E) capabilities of six countries through regional training and seminars.

All regional cooperation projects were captured systematically and evaluated timely.

The Project Implementation Agency (PIA) took practical actions to address issues identified in the mid-term assessment, including establishing a daily petty cash spreadsheet record system, standardizing small cash usage, and committing to formal management guidelines.

Internal financial reporting was improved with monthly bank statement reconciliation via electronic spreadsheets, with plans for detailed budget item reporting for dynamic expenditure monitoring.

Despite a budget expenditure of only 35% at the time of assessment, PIA committed to submitting the interim progress report (MTR) by the end of September 2022 to adjust the implementation plan and align with the original project timeline.

Procurement guidelines, payment voucher templates, and bank reconciliation tools provided by MI were adopted by PIA, gradually standardizing the financial process.
