Contributory Factors to RuMEPP Success in 2010
• Assurance of convergence with stakeholders like LGUs, ACT for Peace Programme, and other partners
• High-turn over of ME business compliance (registration etc.), although FDA registration is still a challenge
• High turn-over of MEs applying BDS Provisions • Big-sister; Little Sister approach of ME relationship• ME-ME sharing of market linkages • Active involvement of MEs in RuMEPP activities• Regular project review/ activity assessment before and after
implementation that involves ME (result based rather than input based)
• Assured counterparts of MEs in activities
Other facilitating factors that contributed to the improvement of rural MEs:
• provision of various business development trainings of RuMEPP
• the community ME facilitators developed are direct means to which MEs themselves share knowledge on ME development
• convergence of resources (directly or indirectly) with partner programmes and agencies like ACT for Peace, LGU-DA Tupi, Tampakan, MPDC Polomolok and Surallah
• BDS providers passion to work for ME development by constant application of validation and re-verification of intervention before implementation of any activity
• Willingness of MEs to learn • Firm level BDS provided by RuMEPP • Constant coaching and advice given by DTI Team to MEs
The factors that hindered the development of RMEs
• Poor MEs could not provide equity in their set-up of even a small processing plant/ center that is DOH-FDA compliant
• LGUs do not recognize or do not implement BMBE Law that supports ME development
• MEs (Level 1) still assumed of dole-out projects given by government without equity/ stake from them
• LGU based projects are still seen as mere livelihood (dispersal mostly) rather than gearing towards micro-enterprising.
