Expertise and support

Development institutions and programmes face challenges that often go beyond the scope of a single function: inadequate organisational structure, implementation difficulties, the need for specialist expertise, institutional transformation or the management of complex systems.

Development institutions and programmes face challenges that often extend beyond a single function: inadequate organisational structure, implementation difficulties, the need for specialist expertise, institutional transformation or the management of complex systems. The AIGDD operates at these various levels using an integrated approach, tailored to the nature of the need and the level of responsibility entrusted to it.

Its expertise covers project preparation, project management, the turnaround of projects in difficulty, technical assistance, institutional transformation and support for certain key implementation functions. Each intervention is tailored to the specific context, available capacities and expected outcomes.

Assessment and institutional reform

Assessment and institutional reform

Organisations are regularly faced with changes that go beyond simply revising procedures or organisational charts.

Organisations are regularly faced with changes that go beyond simply revising procedures or organisational charts. Shifting remits, increasingly complex responsibilities, new performance requirements or weaknesses in internal mechanisms can gradually create a disconnect between the existing organisation and the expected results.

When this gap takes hold, institutional performance becomes compromised: responsibilities become less clear, processes lose their effectiveness and decision-making capacity is weakened.

Expertise and technical support

Expertise and technical support

Certain decisions, changes or actions require skills that are not always available within the organisation, or that need to be drawn upon at a specific time.

Certain decisions, changes or interventions require expertise that is not always available within the organisation, or that needs to be brought in at a specific time.

A lack of appropriate expertise can slow down decision-making, compromise the technical quality of an intervention or limit the ability to address a specialised issue.

In this context, the AIGDD draws on targeted expertise, tailored to the need, the context and the level of technical complexity required, with particular attention paid to the transfer of methods and knowledge.

Project and programme management and oversight

Project and programme management and oversight

The quality of a project does not, in itself, guarantee the quality of its execution.

The quality of a project alone does not guarantee the quality of its execution. Between the initial decision and the expected results, performance depends on the ability to maintain clear governance, effective coordination and constant monitoring of progress.

Scattered responsibilities, delayed decisions or insufficient visibility of risks can gradually cause the project to veer off course.

The AIGDD therefore strengthens the steering mechanisms needed to maintain control of the project, inform decision-making and ensure continuity of action.

Restructuring of projects and programmes

Restructuring of projects and programmes

A programme in difficulty is not necessarily doomed.

A programme facing difficulties is not necessarily doomed to failure. Delays, budgetary overspending, governance weaknesses or a loss of confidence can sometimes be rectified if the causes are identified early enough.

The challenge lies in distinguishing between what can be addressed through manageable adjustments and what requires a more fundamental reassessment of the original course.

The AIGDD carries out this critical assessment, clarifies priorities and creates the conditions for a revival, a turnaround or, where necessary, a reorientation of the programme.

Strategy and project and programme management

Strategy and project and programme management

A project may address a genuine priority and yet remain vulnerable if it is based on an inadequate framework, poorly tested assumptions or incomplete preparation.

A project may address a genuine priority yet remain vulnerable if it is based on an inadequate framework, poorly tested assumptions or incomplete preparation.

When objectives, responsibilities, resources or implementation conditions are not sufficiently established in advance, difficulties generally arise during the execution phase.

The AIGDD steps in at this stage to consolidate the project’s framework, assess its feasibility and lay the groundwork for a controlled implementation.
