development priorities of the
barangay as the guide of all
Barangay
initiatives and how the VMG
implementation of PPAs can
contribute to the achievement of set
development thrusts and objectives

Guides in the Planning, Budgeting and
Implementation of Programs, Projects and Activities

 Before proposing projects for funding under the 20%

Development Fund, make sure such projects are within the set
guidelines (capital forming and among the items included in the
project list)

 Estimate well the funding requirement of the PPAs (not too low
that would result to non-implementation of the project due to
lack of funds, not too high that would mean surplus of funds,
which could have been utilized for other projects)

 During the preparation of the

AIP, prioritize and rank projects
(to facilitate decision-making in
fund allocation and budgeting)
Guides in the Planning, Budgeting and
Implementation of Programs, Projects and Activities

 For continuing and recurring projects, consider the level of

appropriations provided during the previous years, while
conservatively proposing other components that are necessary for
the budget year

 Prepare the needed program of work (POW)/ specifications as early

as possible to facilitate early preparation and processing of
procurement documents (ideally before the Budget preparation)

 As much as possible, be specific and detailed in your proposed

project (not generic or catch-all / lumpsum) to promote
accountability and set specific targets and also to facilitate
monitoring
Observations/ Guides in the Planning and Implementation
of Programs, Projects and Activities

 If funds are limited, consider fund sourcing from external sources.

Verify the status of such request , if already approved (to avoid
double appropriation and to maximize the use of the external fund
or the 20% DF/ other local funds)

 Barangays should be watchful on the progress of procurement and

implementation of their respective projects. (Monitor and evaluate
progress of PPAs)

 Considering the budgetary/ time

constraints, barangays may implement
projects by phases/ stages
(especially those that require
significant funding or those that may take
a longer time to implement).
