Indicator 4: Strengthen Capacity by Coordinated Support:• How much TC did you provide in FY 2005?
→ Qd3. (USD): $ 153.248.315
• How much TC did you provide through coordinated programmes in support of CD in FY 2005?
→ Qd.4 (USD): $ 67.333.779
Indicator 4: Qd.4/Qd.3 = 40% (target: 50%)

Some Donors Consider their TA to be Coordinated Because of the Consultations with GoG. However this is not in line with the definition of the Survey.
6 out of 16 Donors Reported “0” Coordination
More Information is Required to Analyze the Coordinated TA

PPME - Harmonization at the Global Level:
• Funding From Swiss Government
• WB Baseline Indicator System + Swiss Performance Criteria
• Pooled Idea – Output Agreed on Global Level (RTs)
→ Development of a Framework for Procurement Assessment as Globally Coordinated CD

• In 2005 Ghana Received 316 Donor Missions, only 33% of them were Coordinated (Indic. 10a Target: 40%)
→ e.g. Canada: 57 Missions – 1 Coordinated
• GoG does not Have a System of Recording the Totality of the Visiting Missions
