Guía para la formulación de fichas técnicas de proyectos de inversión pública

The initiative is led by the Comisión Nacional para el Desarrollo y Vida sin Drogas - DEVIDA, with technical and financial cooperation from the United States Agency for International Development - USAID. The project aims to improve the productivity and competitiveness of cacao farmers in Peru. The project's scope includes the development of a guide for the formulation of technical fiches for public investment projects of low and medium complexity. The guide provides a framework for the development of technical fiches, which are essential documents for the evaluation and approval of public investment projects. The guide covers various aspects of project development, including the diagnosis of the area of study, the diagnosis of the productive unit, and the analysis of the technical, social, and environmental aspects of the project. The guide is structured into 18 sections, each covering a specific aspect of project development. Section 1 provides an overview of the project's objectives and scope, while Section 2 focuses on the diagnosis of the area of study, including the location, characteristics, and potential risks of the area. Section 3 diagnoses the productive unit, including its processes, assets, and maintenance practices. Section 4 identifies the stakeholders and beneficiaries of the project, while Section 5 defines the problem or objective of the project and outlines the alternatives for solving it. Section 6 evaluates the project's horizon, including the expected outcomes and impacts. Section 7 analyzes the service gap, including the demand and supply of the service, and Section 8 conducts a technical analysis of the project, including the size, location, and technology of the project. Section 9 estimates the costs of the project, including the costs of execution, reinvestment, and operation and maintenance. Section 10 evaluates the social impacts of the project, including the benefits and costs of the project. Section 11 assesses the sustainability of the project, including its financial and environmental sustainability. Section 12 outlines the project management plan, including the implementation, execution, and operation and maintenance phases. The guide also includes a protocol for evaluation, which outlines the procedures for evaluating the project's outcomes and impacts. The guide concludes with a list of references and a list of tables and figures used throughout the document. The project's geographic focus is on the cacao-producing regions of Peru, with a specific emphasis on the development of the cacao chain. The project's timeframes are not specified, but the guide is intended to provide a framework for the development of public investment projects in the agricultural sector. The project's recommendations include the development of a comprehensive project management plan, the establishment of a monitoring and evaluation system, and the implementation of measures to ensure the sustainability of the project. The project's conclusions highlight the importance of a well-structured project development process, which includes a thorough diagnosis of the area of study, the productive unit, and the stakeholders involved.
