description:

It is important to mobilize the Chief Technical Advisor soon after the approval of project funding. In the LEED project context, a six-month delayed deployment of the Chief Technical Advisor in a rapidly changing local context led to additional six months extra time to revise the project approach and get approval. It helps to minimize implementation delays by taking the proactive measure of identifying and recruiting the Chief Technical Advisor to commence at the earliest date. This also helps the Advisor to liaison with the project formulation team so that the Chief Technical Advisor is well aware of assumptions and practicability of project design for the intended purpose.

context:

There is a need to take advance action to ensure that the Chief Technical Advisor is on the job on day one of the project.
