To ensure quality devolution performance tracking of NCR LGUs, the DILG-NCR rolled out the Devolution Transition Plan Analytical Framework (DTP Analytics) to its Field Offices on July 11, 2022, via Zoom Teleconferencing.
The regional rollout was conducted as part of the Departmentâs effort to analyze the submitted LGU DTPs and their implication for the devolution effort.
DILG-NCR Regional Director Maria Lourdes Agustin highlighted the significance of DTP Analytics in ensuring the readiness and devolution performance of each LGU.
âThis is crucial in our mandate to guide the LGUs. I hope that we will all persevere and absorb as much as we can on how to utilize the tools for data capturing,â she said.
More than data capturing, the processed results of this data capturing will be utilized to answer critical questions regarding the level of absorption of devolved functions, services, and facilities; organizational readiness of readiness for devolution; and tracking of LGU performance.
It can be recalled that the first phase focused on assessing the quality and compliance of DTPs to the prescribed guidelines using the LGU DTP Quality Assessment Tool (QAT).
The second phase, the DTP Analytics, will focus on gathering and organizing the data in the DTPs using the Data Capture Form (DCF) to produce baseline information for deeper analysis.
Section Chief of the Local Government Capability Development Division (LGCDD), Maria Jasmin Diaz elaborated on the background and context underlying the key innovations contained in the analytics.
Following the presentation, Development Management Officer IV Leonides Frago, Jr. presented the comprehensive overview, structure of the system, and the step-by-step process of accomplishing the DTP analytics tool through a simulation.
In closing, Assistant Division Chief Luigi Pilarta synthesized the comments, concerns, and recommendations raised by the field officers.
