The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), given its
mandate as overseer, is tasked to implement mechanisms that foster
continuous growth in transparency and accountability at all local government
levels. Henceforth, the Department adopts a multi-faceted approach to the
monitoring and evaluation of programs and projects under the "Assistance to
Local Government Units - Local Government Support Fund" (ALGU-LGSF).
More specifically, risk-based progress monitoring shall be its overarching
frame, which considers timeliness, quality and the dimensions of transparency
and accountability. The methodology is based on participatory governance
practices involving multiple stakeholders from the Local Government Units
(LGUs), the DILG, and non-government organizations/civil society
organizations (NGOs/CSOs) while using digital platforms (e.g. SubayBayan
and RSSA).
The Management Action is also embedded into the Monitoring and Evaluation
(M&E) process as presented in the latter part of the issuance. Moreover, a
guiding framework and a brief discussion pertaining thereto is provided in
Annex A which details the rationale, approach, and methodology used in these
guidelines.

Being able to identify which level shall take actions on various
concerns on the field, this process flow establishes the steps
that the monitors are to undertake for concerns and issues of
non-compliance with the Local Government Units. This is
closely incorporated in the regular conduct of the monitoring
and evaluation.
Note:
* If no LGU was issued with the Notice, the DILG RO
shall submit a report stating that there is none in the
area of jurisdiction.
