ASPIRe(Assam Public Finance Institutional Reforms)

The Government of Assam reached out to the World Bank to take advantage of the signifi cant global and local analytical knowledge of PFM reform experience of the Bank which could be a key value addition for the GoA’s reform priorities. The World Bank’s experience in supporting PFM reform projects through IT interventions, which include design, development, and implementation of FMIS and revenue systems across the world, can contribute to effective advice, choice of solutions, and implementation. These international experiences and cross learnings from other states within India will provide the state appropriate technology solutions, procurement support for FMIS and revenue IT solutions, and sequencing/phasing of implementation to facilitate successful implementation while mitigating implementation and change management risks.

In this background, the idea of the ASPIRe Project was conceive and subsequently, the project preparation and appraisal stages were completed and a Project Appraisal Document was placed before the board of directors of the World Bank. The board approved this project in the month of June and thereafter the Indian Government signed the loan agreement with the World Bank for this $44 Million project.
