Introduction[edit | edit source]
Project Cycle Management (PCM) describes the process of planning and managing projects. Setting clear goals and objectives will help to plan for better results. The project cycle helps to guide the RBM by outlining the steps that lead to successful outcomes. Regardless of the project the basic framework is the same, they[]:
- are designed to solve a problem
- have a deadline/timeframe
- look at existing opportunities based on local needs and capacities
- have a specific amount of resources
- intend to bring benefits to a specific group
- are implemented by a team of people
The ICRC describes planning for results as "A corporate function that assesses context, target groups, problems/needs, risks, constraints and opportunities and sets priorities to ensure an appropriate level of coordination and alignment of actions and resources towards the achievement of expected results"[]
The aim of PCM is to maximise the benefits of projects for the intended population and ensure that projects:
- are relevant and will meet the needs of the intended population
- that objectives can be realistically achieved and take into account the environment and available personnel and resources
- are sustainable
Types of Projects in Rehabilitation[edit | edit source]
Project in this case can refer to a Physical Therapy (PT) department, a PT team, a Continuing Professional Development cycle, etc.
The tools and documents accompanying the phases of a project cycle can be found further.
With a view to strengthening its performance and its ability to demonstrate the effect of its action to assist and protect people affected by armed conflict and other situations of violence, the ICRC adopted, in the mid-1990s, the Results-Based Management (RBM) approach.

Project Cycle Management Planning for ResultsThe Process[edit | edit source]
In order for any project to be successful it is important to set objectives that focus on the population and their current situation and the intended outcome of any intervention.[] The objectives need to be written with the desired outcome in mind so that that the results can be measured and assessed to ensure that there has been a positive impact on the targeted population []. Once the objectives have been set and been agreed the following phases are necessary to ensure that the project is successful and meets the identified goals and desired outcome:
- Assess and Analyse -What is the current situation? Identify problems! What caused it? Who is involved? What are we going to achieve?
- Formulate and Plan - What is the desired outcome? Set objectives, strategies and activities that are needed!
- Implement and Monitor - This is the stage where activities are undertaken. It is important to monitor throughout the whole project so that any successes and/or changes are identified to meet the set goals
- Evaluate and Learn - This can be carried out at any stage highlighting any recommendations and adaptations.
