50th ANNUAL REPORT 2006-2007: GOLDEN JUBILEE YEAR

Chairmans Statement
I have pleasure in presenting, on behalf of the Court of Governors, the Fiftieth Annual Report and Audited Statement of Accounts of the Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI), for the year ending 31 March 2007. In terms of financial results, the College earned an operating income of Rs. 1,823.20 lakhs compared to Rs. 2,052.95 lakhs during 2005-06. The total income, including income from investments, was also lower at Rs. 1,971.26 lakhs in 2006-07 compared to Rs. 2,208.63 lakhs in 2005-06. After providing for depreciation, the net surplus was Rs. 40.46 lakhs. The net surplus would have been higher but for some extraordinary items of expendituresuch as the expenditure on the Golden Jubilee Celebrations. As set out in the audited statement of accounts, after providing Rs. 25.00 lakhs for contingencies and making other provisions, the surplus available for transfer to the ASCI Development Fund was sharply lower at Rs. 15.46 lakhs in 2006-07 as against Rs. 138.42 lakhs in the previous year. I should mention that the college continued its efforts at containing expenditure and streamlining internal financial and administrative procedures, without in any manner sacrificing the quality of its services. Earnings from the training activity continued to show an upward trend, with an income of Rs. 1,126.54 lakhs in 2006-07 compared to Rs. 1,070.98 lakhs in the previous year. However, while the number of participant man-days, at 28,624, was around the same as in 2005-06, the number of programmes that the college conducted, at 165, was 22 less than in the previous year. The participant profile indicates that 47 per cent were from the government sector, 26 per cent from the public sector, 13 per cent from the private sector, with the others (e.g., banking and foreign nationals) constituting 13 per cent of the total. There was an increase of 45 per cent in the number of women participants, reaching a total of 243 in 2006-07, while the number of participants from abroad was 265. As set out in this report, ASCI continued to develop and conduct new and innovative programmes. The college continued to add to its client list from both the public and private sectors. The new clients during the year included: Shreya Life Sciences; National Institute of Technology, Warangal; Jindal Steel; Lundbeck India; National Institute of Ocean Technology; and National Procurement Agency, Govt. of Sri Lanka. The two-year Post-Graduate Diploma Programme in Hospital Management was given recognition by the AICTE in 2005 and received a high level of interest for enrolment. Corporate hospitals have also been helpful in offering placements. In keeping with its widening international engagement, the college was involved during 2006-07 in conducting several training programmes for institutions abroad. These included procurement management programmes in Nepal and Sri Lanka; perspectives on governance for the Cape Administrative Academy, South Africa; and a programme on globalization and international trade for Richard T. Farmer School of Business, Miami University. In collaboration with the Commonwealth Secretariat, London, and the Ministry of External Affairs of India (with the National Institute of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises in Hyderabad participating), the college developed a training programme on capacity building for 125 entrepreneurs and executives of small and medium enterprises from the African continent. Training for the first batch of 19 managers of small and medium enterprises from six African countries was completed during the year, and a schedule for the remaining four programmes was also drawn up. The college continued to make its contribution towards research and consultancy in the areas suggested by the Vision Committee, particularly in the areas of urban governance, infrastructure, energy and tariff regulation, service delivery, evaluation of project impact and training, among others. However, there was a decline in the income earned from these activities (Rs. 696.66 lakhs) to the tune of Rs. 285.31 lakhs compared to Rs. 981.97 lakhs in the preceding year. The decline was due to the successful completion of three big-ticket items in the

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

preceding yearnamely, the projects on Service Delivery in Kerala, Impact Assessment of HIV/AIDS in AP, and National Family Health Survey III. However, as a result of streamlining of project management procedures and collection of dues, the surplus from many projects was at a higher ratio, softening the impact of the decline in gross income. During 2006-07, the college completed 33 consultancy and research assignments, and received 55 new assignmentsin the areas of energy, environment, health, human resources, innovation and technology, international trade and finance, industry, macroeconomic policy and public finance, poverty studies and rural development, public policy, gover nance and performance, and urban governance. During the year under review, ASCI continued to be active in organizing conferences and workshops on themes of national and global importance, bringing together policymakers and other stakeholders into a common space for focused discussion. In September 2006, the college organized an International Conference on Management of Change: The Challenges Facing Universities, in partnership with the Commonwealth of Learning, Vancouver, UNESCO and the AP State Council of Higher Education. Around 40 leading academicians met to discuss the issues confronting this sector and develop an action plan to address them. Following the Tarapore Committee Report on Fuller Capital Account Convertibility, the college hosted a conference on the theme in December 2006, in which the RBI, several commercial banks, the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy, other institutions engaged in policy advice and research, and various scholars participated. In collaboration with the Ministry of Urban Development, Govt. of India, the Conference on Networking of JNNURM Cities: Peer Experience and Reflective Learning (PEARL) Programme was organized in January 2007, involving mayors and commissioners from 63 mission cities. During the same month, ASCI also conducted a Workshop on Power Sector Reforms: Appraisal and the Way Ahead at the initiative of the Ministry of Power, Govt. of India, and with the support of Power Finance Corp. Senior officials concerned with power sector reform from the Centre and the states participated. The college also conducted a National Conference on Practising Solar Energy Options in February 2007 in partnership with Tata-BP Solar India. Representatives of the government, industry, consumers and others participated to discuss

and promote the adoption of this clean energy source by the IT, hospitality, health and education sectors. Members of the college faculty continued to make a contribution to research activity. Though, overall, it remains somewhat below potential. The establishment of a seed research fund of Rs. 10 lakhs has been helping to meet modest funding requirements for research work particularly for supporting the work of research fellows. During the year, 12 new members were recruited, and by the end of March 2007, the total faculty strength stood at 41. Owing to recruitment of a number of younger members, the overall age profile of the faculty has come down considerably. At our invitation, Mr. M. P. Bezbaruah, IAS (retd.), former Secretary, Ministry of Tourism, Govt. of India (GoI), and Mr. Kamal Kumar, IPS (retd.), former Director, SVP National Police Academy, Hyderabad, have joined the college in an honorary capacity during the year. A major event in the year was the delivery of the Golden Jubilee Address by Dr. Manmohan Singh, the Honble Prime Minister of India, on 5 December 2006. In his address, in addition to recognizing the valuable contribution the college has made during the last half a century, he exhorted ASCI to make a greater contribution in upgrading the skills and reorienting the outlook of managers in India; in toning up the management of large public sector undertakings; in advising the governments in the delivery of public services; and in building bridges of co-operation with Indias neighbours. The college will orient its activities in the directions indicated by the Prime Minister. The college organized memorial lectures in honour of Sri K. L. N. Prasad, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and Dr. Y. Nayudamma. These lectures were respectively delivered by the following eminent persons: Sri C. S. Rao, Chairman, Insurance Regulatory Development Authority (IRDA), Hyderabad; Hon. Sri Gopalkrishna Gandhi, Governor of West Bengal; and Prof. C. N. R. Rao, Scientific Advisor to the Prime Minister of India. Steps continue to be taken to improve the ambience and quality of the college infrastructure. TV sets were installed in all the hostel rooms at Bella Vista and in 38 rooms in the College Park campus. Renovation work was initiated in the ASCI New Delhi Centre, involving an extensive revamp of the conference hall to make it more useful and attractive. In response to a request from the college, the Prime Minister, in his 5 December speech, announced the grant of an interest-free loan of Rs. 5 crores by the 6

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

GoI to ASCI towards upgrading its infrastructural and other facilities and capacities so as to take forward the recommendations of the Vision Committee Report. The loan has since been received on 11 April 2007. Work has been begun on the development of the College Park campus. The college continued to receive valuable guidance and directions on its activities, the development of its infrastructure and its investments from its Court of Governors (CoG). The General body of the College Society met once, the Court of Governors twice, and the Standing Committee of the CoG four times, during the year. The college has been making progress in the directions set out in the Vision Committee Report in several significant ways. Thus the college has further enhanced its role in addressing issues of good governance, poverty, human development and other areas of importance to

the nation. Its involvement in the management training of scientists is a significant area of engagement. Overall, the international reach of the college is growing. The new faculty are bringing in fresh blood and innovative ideas. The administrative and financial processes have been streamlined to a greater extent. Infrastructure facilities are being upgraded. The college continues to have the benefit of co-operation and support from the Government of India, state governments and international organizations such as The World Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the Commonwealth Secretariat and the United Nations, among others. The achievements of the college during 2006-07, as in the previous years, owe to the sustained and dedicated efforts put in by the Director-General, the faculty and staff at all levels. I commend them for their contributions.

Academic Activities
A. Research and Consultancy
Management Studies Economics & Finance Public Policy, Governance & Performance Poverty Studies & Rural Development Human Development Innovation & Technology New Business During the year, the college actively continued its efforts to secure new business in functional as well as in sectoral areas. These include energy, urban infrastructure, corporate governance, administrative reforms, service delivery, regulatory issues, trade issues, clean environment, technology management, human capital building, etc. The sizeable number of assignments received in these spheres exemplifies this fact. The college has effectively leveraged the expertise and experience gained over the years to successfully carry out assignments and maintain its momentum in attracting new contracts. Thus, during 2006-07, the college received 55 new research and consultancy assignments, valued at Rs. 699.72 lakhs. Of these, research accounted for 23 assignments, worth Rs. 179.87 lakhs; and consultancy accounted for 32 projects, worth Rs. 519.85 lakhs. The number of assignments secured this year is significantly higher compared to the 36 projects received last year. As in the previous year, the Centre for Energy, Environment, Urban Governance and Infrastructure Development (CEEUG) maintained its lead. Its share in the new assignments was the highest (see Table 1 below). Areas under CEEUG have won several prestigious contracts, many of them through an open competitive bidding process. Table 1 Research & Consultancy Assignments Received Centre/Others Energy, Environment, Urban Governance & Infrastructure Development 2005-06 16 2006-07 37 Library Total 8 2 1 5 2 2 36 6 5 2 2 1 1 1 55 In line with the recommendations of the Vision Committee, the Administrative Staff College of India has increasingly focused its endeavours, in a proactive way, on identifying areas of topical interest and concern to the government and industry. Towards this end, it has been formulating suitable proposals, which can then be developed into viable projects.

The clientele for these assignments included national and international agencies, enterprises and establishments of repute, as well as state and central governments. Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Karnataka, Orissa and West Bengal were among the states from where projects were awarded to the college. At the union government level, many assignments were secured from sponsors/clients under the administrative control of various ministries/ departments. The latter include Administrative Reforms & Public Grievances, Agriculture, Defence, Power, Science & Technology and Urban Development. The World Bank and UNCTAD were two international bodies that awarded prestigious contracts to the college. The college continued to work, for the second consecutive year, with the Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances in implementing the prestigious Prime Ministers Awards for Excellence in Public Administration. The college assisted the department in carrying out scrutiny, evaluation as well as spot studies of the nominations received under the scheme. Further, the college facilitated the work of the Expert Committee (headed by the Secretary, Personnel, GoI) and the Empowered Committee (headed by the Cabinet Secretary, GoI). As a result of the good work done by the college for 2005-06, it won the contract for 2006-07 as well. Assignments Completed The various centres of the college successfully completed 33 research and consultancy projects during the year. In project completion too, the Centre for Energy, Environment, Urban Governance and Infrastructure

The college made concerted efforts to secure projects/ assignments of a similar nature from other states/ agencies. It is envisaged that some of these endeavours will translate into award of contracts in the coming year. Ongoing Projects Work is in progress in respect of 70 research and consultancy projects that have been carried forward to the year 2007-08. A majority of the ongoing assignments too have been awarded to the Centre for Energy, Environment, Urban Governance & Infrastructure Development (see Table 4 below).

Income Earned On account of new projects contracted as well as completion of ongoing projects (either in full or in part, as per the defined milestones), the college earned during 2006-07 an income of Rs. 696.66 lakhs. The break-up is given in Table 3 below. Table 3 Income Earned from Research & Consultancy (in Rs. Lakhs) 2005-06 2006-07 582.06 399.91 981.97 258.58 411.08 696.66

Activity Research Consultancy Total

The flow of research and consulting income during the year 2007-08 is therefore expected to be considerably higher than that in 2006-07, owing to the larger portfolio of assignments in hand. Research Output/Publications The research and consultancy work carried out by the college is almost entirely of the sponsored nature. Hence, its ownership rests with the respective sponsors/clients. In order to publish the findings generated during the course of the research and consultancy work, consent needs to be obtained from the sponsors/clients concerned. This may not be readily forthcoming due to

The drop in research income compared to the previous year was mainly on account of a few large assignments coming to a successful conclusion during 2006-07. These assignments included: Impact Assessment of HIV/AIDS in the State of Andhra Pradesh, Service Delivery as Part of the Government Modernizing Programme of the State of Kerala, Service Delivery Certification Programme of Kerala.

the confidentiality and sensitivity of the assignment and/ or owing to the usual norms of non-disclosure agreed to by both the parties. However, wherever possible, the college continued its endeavours to bring out publications based on its research work. Faculty members published 17 articles, and also presented research papers at national and international conferences. Considerable scope, however, exists for improvement in this area. Towards this end, the college instituted during 2006-07 a seed research fund of Rs. 10 lakhs. It can be availed by faculty members for pursuing research on issues of contemporary concern. Each member whose proposal is selected will receive a sum of up to Rs. 50,000 for conducting research, and publishing the findings, in the chosen area of interest. Thus, scientific and evidencebased research carried out by faculty members, with funding from the college, will be freed of the abovementioned restrictions and constraints. This will allow a larger number of case studies to be published, which can also be used in the management development programmes of the college. During the year, two faculty members availed of the fund for their seed research projects.

(Rs. 343.23 lakhs), Human Resources (Rs. 198.34 lakhs) and Operations (Rs. 174.04 lakhs) contributed significantly to the management development training activity. The conscious decision to reduce the number of offcampus one- and two-day programmes and increase the number of on-campus programmes, compared to the previous year (see Table 6 below), has resulted in higher revenue and faculty productivity. Regular as well as new clients accounted for the approximately 40 per cent increase in the number of in-company on-campus programmes.

Training and Conferences

The management development training programmes conducted by the college for the year 2006-07 have been most lucrative. The projected income up to 31 March 2007 is Rs. 1065.01 lakhsan increase of about Rs. 18 lakhs over the previous year. It may, however, be added that this estimate does not include income from the Masters Programme in Health Administration, offered by the college, and the Manchester Business School-ASCI MBA Programme. The estimated income of Rs. 1065.01 lakhs consists of three categories, as shown in Table 5 below.

Of the 161 programmes conducted by the college in 2006-07, 58 were announced programmes, 80 were incompany on-campus programmes and 23 in-company off-campus programmes (see Tables 8, 9 and 10). The client details of the training programmes can be found in Tables 11a and 11b. The total number of participants in these programmes was 3,632. The sector-wise breakup of the participants is given in Table 7 below.

The maximum participation in 2006-07 was from the government, followed by the public sector and the private sector. The cause for worry was the steep fall, of more than 50 per cent, in private sector participation as compared to the previous year. However, participation

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

by women has gone up by 39 per cent in 2006-07 over the previous year. This can be attributed to the conscious efforts made to encourage such participation, including a 10 per cent discount in the fee charged to women participants. Eleven new programmes were announced during 200607. These were as follows: Strategic Management, New Tax Regime & Its Implications, Strategic Financial Management, Personality Development, Negotiation Skills, Competency Management, Lean Manufacturing, Management of IT, Social Marketing Principles & Practices for Health Professionals, Change Management for Achieving Continuous Water Supply, and ASCI-SUI International Programme on Continuous Water Supply. Five conferences, six workshops, three seminars and two task force meetings were conducted during 2006-07. In addition four endowed lectures and five research colloquiums were organized.

Outlook for Future


It has been the endeavour of the college to not only maintain but also improve upon its core competencies. It has harnessed and strengthened the experience and expertise gained over years and tapped suitable opportunities in the marketplace. Sound economic growth, ably aided by the ongoing reform interventions of the central/state gover nments, and the good governance initiatives of the corporate sector have opened up new research and consulting avenues for the college. In order to fully avail of these expanding opportunities, and convert them into income-generating projects, the faculty strength has been commensurately increased.

Centre for Human Development

The Centre for Human Development (CHD) comprises three areas: Health Studies, Education Studies and Gender Studies. All three areas of social development are critical to the achievement of the global Millennium Development Goals Agenda. Much of CHDs work during the year under review focused on the Health area. Efforts were also made to augment the centres resourcesby way of recruiting senior reputed facultyto address the Education and Gender areas. A beginning has been made in this regard, and activities were initiated in these two areas. Activities of each of the CHD areas clustered around the overall institutional objectives of research and consultancy, and training and conferences. The Health Studies area completed six consultancy projects funded by international and national donor and gover nment agencies. These were as follows: Reproductive & Child Health Project (RCH-II)Baseline Survey for the Commissionerate of Health & Family Welfare, Govt. of AP; the Andhra Pradesh segment of the National Family Health Survey, 2005-2006 (NFHS3), for MHFW; Preparation & Conduct of a Certification Programme in Service Delivery for the Govt. of Kerala; Impact Assessment of HIV/AIDS Prevention Programme in Andhra Pradesh for the National Institute of Public Health, Mexico; Study on Elements that Contributed to the Success of Family Planning in Andhra Pradesh for the United Nations Fund for Population Activities; and Patterns of Road Traffic Injuries in Hyderabad for the Wellcome Trust, London. The Health area faculty was also engaged in capacity building: the seven MDPs conducted under this area during 2006-07 had 78 senior-level participants. The two-year Post-Graduate Diploma in Hospital Management (PGDHM) was revamped and certified by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). The first batch of 21 students, while active in their course, also enthusiastically participated in various co-curricular activities, such as visits to hospitals and volunteering for health camps held on the ASCI campus for the staff and their families. Activities in the Education Studies area also picked up. The faculty organized a three-day inter national Conference on Management of Change: The Challenges Facing Universities, in late September 2006. The Commonwealth of Learning (COL), Vancouver, Canada, UNESCO, Paris, and the Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE), Hyderabad, supported 19

the conference. Around 40 leading academicians from the higher education sector in India and abroad met to discuss the ways to deal with the many challenges facing this sector. A Capacity-Building Programme for Directors & Senior Faculty of State Councils of Educational Research & Training, sponsored by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Govt. of India, was successfully conducted at ASCI in January 2007. A combination of issuesrelating to the management of public education in the context of the GoIs Education for All objectives, the changing perception of the SCERTs role and their own expectations as institutions in the Eleventh Five Year Plan, given the existing diversities in practices between various statesprovided a challenge to the focus of the programme. In particular, the concept of using Learning Notes and field visits to local schools, which served as live demonstrations of alternate teaching and learning methods, was successful and practical. A CapacityBuilding Programme for Principals & Senior Faculty of District Institutes of Education & Training was also held, in March 2007. Its focus was the development of managerial skills, institutional capacity, and leadership and action plans. The paper Theoretical Analysis of Sexual Harassment, by Ms. Sohini Basu, has been accepted for publication in the forthcoming edited volume Crime Victims and Justice: An Introduction to Restorative Principles, to be published by the Indian Society of Victimology. The article examines the nature and legality of sexual harassment; draws on theoretical explanations for the occurrence of sexual harassment at the workplace; and discusses the dynamics of remedial means. Ms. Basu also presented a paper on Gender Budgeting: A Tool for Promoting Gender Justice at the UGC-sponsored National Seminar on Gender Justice: Issues & Challenges, held in December 2006 at Delhi University. An ongoing project in the Gender area is Researching Social Capital: A Focus on Violence. Plans were initiated to strengthen the Education Studies and Gender Studies areas by identifying and recruiting senior experienced faculty.

During 2006-07, the Centre for Innovation and Technology (CIT) continued to synergize the experience and domain expertise of its two areas, viz. Information

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

Technology (IT) area and Technology Policy, Management and Innovation (TPMI) area. CIT was active in identifying, securing and carrying out assignments in the management development, research as well as consulting space. With two new faculty members reinforcing its strength, the centre significantly scaled up the nature and extent of its contribution to the activities of the college. Partnership with DST The TPMI area was effective in strengthening the ongoing partnership with the Dept. of Science & Technology (DST), Govt. of India. This resulted in a substantial increase in the scale and scope of training programmes being conducted by the college for the scientific community. Thus, the target participant level of the programmes moved up the value chain, with a large number of programmes being held for senior scientists; apart from those for middle-level scientists that had commenced in the previous year. Management Development Activity The Centre for Innovation & Technology continued to successfully conduct thematic as well as general management programmes in the announced as well as the in-company categories. Among the ongoing programmes, the Advanced-Techno Management Programme for Middle-level Scientists and the General Management Programme for Senior Scientists were conducted by the TPMI area; while the Programme on Strategic Use of IT for Oil and Natural Gas Corp. and the Programme on Data Warehousing & Data Mining for Scientists were conducted by the IT area. Capacity-building programmes on new themes for existing and new clients/sponsors as well as in the announced/ open-market categories were also successfully launched by the centre. These include: Programme on Management of IT, Programme on Knowledge Management for Nuclear Power Corp. of India Ltd., and Programme on Knowledge Management, MIS in Practice & Structural Capital Management for Indian Petrochemicals Corp. Ltd.all conducted by the IT area; and Programme on Technology Commercialization for Senior Scientists (by the TPMI area). Research and Consultancy During 2006-07, the TPMI area successfully completed an ongoing research initiative on Building Institutional Capability in Technology Management: Phase-IV,

sponsored by the Dept. of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR), Govt. of India. Another prestigious research assignment won during the previous yearFramework for Developing a Roadmap for e-Governance for the Govt. of Chhattisgarhwas completed by the IT area to the satisfaction of the client. On the consultancy front, CIT contributed in a substantial measure to the successful completion of a prestigious assignment: namely, assisting the Dept. of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DARPG), Govt. of India, to implement the scheme on the Prime Ministers Awards for Excellence in Public Administration, 2005-06. The centre continued its significant contribution to the assignment during 2006-07 as well. The project was awarded by DARPG to the college for the second consecutive year, on the strength of the good work carried out in the previous year. Selection and implementation of enterprise resource planning solutions are widely acknowledged as strategic and exacting initiatives in the IT-enabling of organizations. The IT area won a key assignment during 2006-07 Selection of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Product & Implementation Partner and Monitoring & Support of ERP Implementation in Midhanifrom Mishra Dhatu Nigam Ltd. under Ministry of Defense, Govt. of India. This assignment made good progress during the year. Workshops & Conferences Under the sponsorship of DSIR, GoI, the TPMI area conducted a two-day Workshop on the Issues before the National Knowledge Commission in August 2006. Its objective was to promote interaction among key stakeholders on the issues before the commission. About 40 distinguished scholars, scientists, educationists and administrators from the government, private and NGO sectors attended the workshop. The report on the suggestions and recommendations that emerged from the workshop was commended by the then Vice-Chairman of the Knowledge Commission, Dr. P. M. Bhargava.

22

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

Impact of CPSRD Studies On the basis of the study carried out by ASCI on the impact of KCCs, the Planning Commission and the Ministry of Agriculture, Govt. of India, have agreed to strengthen the scheme with additional budgetary support. The study team was invited to make a presentation at the National Rabi Conference: 2006-07 on the key findings, which were well received by delegates from all over the country. Similarly, the Director-General of NIRD, and members of his senior team, held detailed discussion on the comparative performance of the training programmes offered by different centers of NIRD between 2003 and 2006. These programmes were based on the ASCI study involving a survey of 12,000 participants in NIRD programmes, followed by four regional workshops across the country. The top management of NIRD expressed keenness to initiate follow-up action on the recommendations of the ASCI team. The objective was to enhance the quality and relevance of NIRDs training programmes for better impact on the capacity-building skills of rural development practitioners and functionaries within the country and abroad. Training and Development A proposal was prepared by ASCI in July 2006, at the request of the Commonwealth Secretariat (ComSec), London, for enhancing the capacity-building skills of small and medium enterprise (SME) professionals in Africa and South Asia. It was accepted by the client and the Indian Technical & Economic Co-operation (ITEC) division of the Ministry of External Affairs, Govt. of India (GoI). The Union Finance Minister further announced at the Commonwealth Finance Ministers Meeting in Colombo in September 2006 that GoI would financially co-sponsor this capacity-building initiative, with ASCI as the lead institution. Following this announcement, the first Senior Management Development Programme (SMDP) was offered jointly by ASCI and the National Institute of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (NIMSME) in February 2007. The programme was designed on the basis of a training needs study (TNS) carried out by CPSRD in November 2006 across East and West African SMEs. The impact of the SMDP has been very positive, with extremely encouraging feedback from the participants. The team from Bank of Africa submitted a special report on the learning value of the programme. The report has been

circulated by ITEC to all the heads of missions in Africa and South Asia included under the ITECComSecsponsored Capacity-Building Programme for SMEs. Following the encouraging response, both ComSec and the GoI have agreed to extend support to three additional programmes scheduled for 2007-08. CPSRD was also invited in September 2006 to offer a customized programme on Agribusiness Orientation for the Executives of Godavari Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd. (GFCL). The first two-day workshop, offered at the GFCL plant in Kakinada, was very well received by the participants. Consequently, the client invited ASCI to conduct four additional sessions to cover different departments of the organization at Kakinada, Vijayawada and Nagpur. CPSRD has also been contributing inputs to various other general and announced MDPs of the college. Conference A proposal submitted by CPSRD in November 2006 for a two-day Conference on the North-Eastern Region of India: Constraints & Opportunities for Development was accepted by the Ministry of Development of the NorthEastern Region in January 2007. The conference was held in early June 2007.

VII. Centre for Public Policy, Governance & Performance


The Centre for Public Policy, Governance & Performance (CPPGP) undertook very little activity in the first half of 2006-07 except for the Approach Statement for Orissa Vision 2020 project, which was completed. Apart from the prestigious project of being the secretariat for the PMs Awards for Excellence in Public Administration, no new projects were received during the year. A couple of projects were dogged by delays. Though the book project on the History of the Power Sector in India was submitted, the client (NTPC) is unhappy with the output. In the case of Andhra Pradesh State Development Report, commissioned by the Planning Commission, the delays were entirely because its 16 chapters had to be written by separate authors. The report was submitted in March 2007. As in the previous year, Prof. Gautam Pingles efforts were mainly devoted to discharging his responsibilities as Dean of Research & Consultancy. He found it difficult

23

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF COLLEGE OF INDIA

to find time for either training or research and consultancy activity. However, with the recruitment of new faculty members and with fresh project proposals in the pipeline, CPPGP recorded substantially better performance in the rest of 2006-07. The two new members who joined the faculty in the second half of the year were Mr. Mohammed A. Abid (Associate Professor) and Mrs. Khadeeja Zeenath M. Ali (Assistant Professor). Mr. Abid prepared six proposals, together valued at Rs. 117.53 lakhs. Responses from the respective clients are awaited. Both he and Mrs. Ali assisted in a Centre for Economics & Finance (CEF) project on Improving Pro-Poor Service Delivery for the Govt. of Andhra Pradesh. Mr. Abid also contributed to securing a CEF project on Corporate Governance for Orissa State Undertakings. He will be involved with this project. Apart from designing and directing training programmes on capacity building for SCERT directors, senior faculty and DIET principals, Mrs. Khadeeja Ali assisted in finalizing the 16 chapters of the AP State Development Reporta major long-pending task. Prof. Pingle was active in finalizing the project on PMs Awards for Excellence in Public Administration, 200506, which has been completed. The college has also received the PMs Awards project for 2006-07. The centres activity level during 2007-08 is expected to be substantially greater than that in 2006-07, despite the resignation of Mrs. Khadeeja Ali.
