The ndings of this study are primarily based on the 2010 FMIS Database, which includes
55 closed and 32 active Treasury/FMIS (T/F) projects implemented between 1984
and 2010 (7 pipeline projects are also analyzed in some sections).3 The data were gathered
primarily from internal World Bank documents and sources: individual project Implementation
Completion Reports (ICRs), Project Appraisal Documents (PADs), and the
Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) reports, and were complemented by interviews
with project leaders and public sector/informatics specialists. The Database contains a
rich set of operational data and performance ratings for the bene t of those involved in
the implementation of such projects, as well as client countries.
The Latin America and Caribbean region of the World Bank stands out with the
largest number of completed (25) and active (4) projects. The Africa region follows with
13 completed and 12 active projects. The majority of these completed projects are comprehensive
FMIS solutions (32) or an expansion of such systems (13). The approach followed
by World Bank teams in the preparation of completed and active projects is also
analyzed by determining the degree of a ention to key preparation activities. These
aspects were selected in line with the FMIS Design and Implementation Methodology
presented in this study to ensure consistency in comparison.
In addition to the dataset, a number of case studies are provided to highlight the
design complexities and the important nuances regarding the success and failure of
projects. Country cases, rather than individual projects, were selected to illustrate the
integrated and sequential nature of multiple projects with large investments in ICT
over many years. Cases from Mongolia, Turkey, Albania, Guatemala, and Pakistan are
included.
