This step provides guidance on building a preliminary vision for positive change in the target market system that is informed by stakeholder perspectives and fundable, outlining key principles of systemic thinking, participation, and facilitation to underpin the strategic design and planning process. Recommendations are given for developing a flexible strategy and fundable proposal that allows the vision and activities to evolve in response to market actor aspirations as ownership of the PMSD process is transferred to stakeholders.
Facilitating Change explains how to take a ‘learning-by-doing’ approach. You will find a set of recommendations covering the processes of facilitation, monitoring, reflection, learning and planning.
The step also includes a summary of our lessons for facilitating key Participatory Market System Development activities.
Step10: Communicating Evidence for Impact at Scale explains how to create the conditions for market actors involved in the PMSD process to promote change throughout the whole market system.
The step provides recommendations for facilitators to unlock and unleash market systems’ potential to disseminate new information, practices and technologies to large numbers of people.
Step 4: Empowering Marginalised Actors provides guidance on how to build the skills of actors who start from a point of marginalisation so that they can engage proactively with more powerful and market savvy actors.
In Step 5: Engaging Key Actors you will find guidance about how to develop and implement a strategy of engagement to convince market actors to join the process of participatory market system development.
This step helps you to really understand the actors that you want to engage, devise ‘hooks’ based on their incentives to attract them, and find ways to keep them interested even when things are not going to plan.

John Chapman, Touchstone – Benefits dependency diagrams should be simple. Use timelines to identify when benefits realisation will occur.
During an APM Benefits SIG committee meeting, a request was made for someone to present on Benefits Management at a lunchtime working session at the Open University (an APM Corporate member) in Milton Keynes. Have previously gained and benefited from an OU degree I immediately volunteered with a view to both ‘giving something back’ and having a genuine interest in what the OU were doing to tackle this subject of which I am a keen proponent.
The popularity and success of this event is in no small part due to the energy and approach of Will Levy. Will, who has only been in post for 12 months, has during this time introduced Benefits and Portfolio management to the OU. The OU is clearly a progressive organisation with a strong desire to succeed and flourish and Will is currently working to ensure that its transformational change initiatives are fully aligned with its strategic plan. It is apparent that developing their Portfolio and Benefits Management capabilities together is enabling both disciplines to gain traction in way that by approaching them independently would have been less effective.
The event gave me an opportunity to present on my firmly held belief that effective Benefits Management is a wonderful enabler for sustainable organisational change. The BM processes themselves becoming much more effective when viewed and implemented through a Change Management Lens. There were two other speakers in the line up; Jim Yates, an OU tutor and lecturer, gave a presentation on the importance of recognising and accommodating the different perspectives of an organisation’s stakeholders. And Sean Sellers, a Business Transformation Manager, presented on the progress of an OU change programme for which he has Benefits Management responsibilities.
This was a good event which was finished off by a networking opportunity, fuelled by a great selection of sandwiches, and some more Benefits and Change conversation. Will suggested that he would be interested in seeking representation from other APM SIGs to help inform and develop his organisations Change Management capability.

In this brief, the GROOVE Learning Network presents lessons learned about effective M&E for value chain interventions.
Idea in brief: The value chain approach requires a rethink of traditional monitoring and evaluation (M&E). On one hand, managers and front line staff require information with greater frequency in order to make decisions and adapt in a complex operating environment. On another hand, the focus of the value chain approach on systemic change places unique demands on evaluators and evaluation designs.
A number of traditional M&E standards do not change in the shift to a value chain approach. But, effective M&E for value chain programming does require improving feedback loops, deconstructing walls between M&E staff and front line staff, an increased focus on measuring sustainability of impacts at multiple levels within a system and new methods for rigorously assessing impact.

This is the short version of the MaFI 2013 Work Plan. If you do not have much time to read the details, here’s a summary of objectives and modules:
Objectives:
- To continue influencing the principles, rules and practices of international development to promote facilitation approaches in inclusive market development using the MaFI-festo as a general guideline.
- To further the practice and thinking of inclusive market development facilitation through a systematic process of learning and action-research between market facilitators and M&E and complexity experts, mainly through the Complexity Dialogues and the Systemic M&E Initiative.
- To produce knowledge products based on MaFI’s learning agenda and processes (e.g. online discussions, webinars and in-person meetings) that inform and build the capacity of field practitioners and are relevant and interesting to other decision-makers such as donors and lead firms.
- To promote in-person interactions and local-global dialogue, learning and coordination through formal and informal initiatives such as Local Learning Groups, MaFI Ambassadors, workshops and conferences.
- To continue improving the efficiency and effectiveness of MaFI’s back-end operations (e.g. guidance to members, processing and selection of requests to join, MaFI introductions, selection of Top Influencer of the Month, etc.)
Modules:
- M&E of MaFI: To build better theories of change and indicators to monitor how learning and collaboration processes change in MaFI and to assess MaFI’s impacts on its members
- MaFI “Instructions Manual”: To codify the operational principles and the lessons learned by the facilitator of MaFI since its beginnings in 2007-8 and to provide tips and instructions about how to manage the back-end processes that keep MaFI running efficiently.
- Systemic M&E, Phase II: To illustrate the practical application, implications and impacts of the principles proposed in the Systemic M&E synthesis document in the context of inclusive market development initiatives.
- Complexity Dialogues: To build a learning agenda that will help MaFI to interact in a more systematic way with complexity experts to improve the application of complexity science in inclusive market development practice and policy-making.
- Capacity Building: To build global convergence and consensus around the basic skills and attitudes that effective and efficient facilitators of inclusive market development initiatives should have.
- Knowledge Production System: To convert the best discussions ever produced by MaFI into knowledge products that are easy to read and can reach large numbers of practitioners globally, both for information and training purposes.
- Local Learning and collaboration: To promote locally contextualised learning and collaboration between key development actors such as field practitioners, policy-makers and donors around issues related to facilitation of inclusive market development
UCISA Toolkit - Effective Benefits Management for Business Change and IT Proj...Mark Ritchie
This toolkit provides an overview of the principles behind benefits realisation and some basic tools for use in projects. The toolkit also provide signposts to more sophisticated techniques that are available should a project require them.
Benefits management aims to ensure that benefits that have been identified at the start of a project are realised and that any benefits that emerge as the project progresses are properly exploited. As many project benefits are not realised until after the project is closed it is important that appropriate structures are put in place to monitor benefits realisation post project.
This toolkit was developed based on best practice at the University of Sheffield. The toolkit was published by the UCISA Project and Change Management Group in September 2016.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

1. Step 3: Strategic Design and Planning
‘Facilitators prepare a fundable PMSD process’
Summary
This step is about building a vision for change in the market system, devising a strategy for the PMSD
process, and identifying a set of facilitative activities to implement.
In these guidelines you will be introduced to the three fundamental principles of PMSD – systemic
thinking, participation and facilitation. You will find examples, recommendations and tools for putting
these into practice.
You will find insights on how to make the design and plan fundable. You will also find recommendations
on how to build flexibility into the strategy so that you can respond to the aspirations of the market
actors as they take ownership of the process.

2. Section 1: Preparing a fundable proposal
In order to facilitate a PMSD process you will need funding. You must therefore respond to the interests
of the donor with an assured, convincing, accountable and tailored proposal.
Projects and programmes of work
Our experience of the PMSD process at Practical Action has come in many forms. Most of our work has
been project-based. There have also been exciting times when we have been able to support wider
bodies of coherent work around a particular sector, which we call programmes. How you are able to
facilitate a PMSD process depends largely on the source of the funding.
In the PMSD Roadmap, we do not refer to projects or programmes, in recognition of the fact that you
may find opportunities to facilitate a PMSD process in different ways. The PMSD process benefits from
more flexible, less time-bound support.
However it is funded, the PMSD process involves a set of specific interventions. This step provides
guidance on how to design the strategy to plan these interventions. The strategy helps you to make sure
that everything you do, big or small, is driven by the key principles of PMSD and contributes to a ‘big
picture’ vision of a market system that is efficient, inclusive and equitable.
Fundability
In proposals, donors look for:
- Impact: Donors want assurance that the proposed work is going to have a tangible impact. They look
at milestones and targets against objectively verifiable indicators (OVIs) for a sense of ambition and
commitment from the applicant.
- Value addition: Donors want to understand what sets you apart from other applicants. This is your
opportunity to convince them that the PMSD approach described in the PMSD Roadmap adds
enormous value in terms of sustainability and scale of impact. You should seek to reflect this added
value in the proposal narrative and in the OVIs and targets.
- Cost-effectiveness: First of all donors are looking for accounting and budgetary competency: they will
check to see that the budget that is submitted is realistic and reflects what is discussed in the
proposal narrative. They will also be comparing proposals against each other in terms of value for
money: where are resources used for the greatest effect. Once again, you should use the proposal
narrative and the OVIs and targets to clearly signal the value for money of your proposal.
- Relevance: Donors want proposals to fit with their values, priorities and objectives. Proposals should
therefore be tailored to the specific interests of each donor and particular calls.
You will find further guidance on selecting the OVIs and setting milestones and targets in Step 9:
Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning.

Work closely with your fundraising colleagues in your country and regional offices to collate your
existing knowledge about what works best in proposal preparation. Use it to create a “checklist of good
proposal-preparation practices” that you can draw on when you transfer the vision and strategy that
you design in this step onto a fundable concept note or proposal.
Make sure that the checklist covers how you will best communicate impact, value addition, cost-
effectiveness and relevance.

4. Section 2: Systemic Thinking, Participation and Facilitation
Systemic thinking, participation and facilitation are the three fundamental principles that underpin the
PMSD approach and enable sustainable impact at scale.
Sustainability and impact at scale
Too often livelihoods and microenterprise development efforts have limited success in delivering
sustainable impacts because of weak linkages of marginalised people to their wider systems.
Furthermore, successes often remain on a small scale, helping a few thousand households at a time –
drops in the ocean in the face of the huge challenge of global poverty.
In 2002, in recognition of our own and others’ past experiences in pursuit of sustainable impact at
scale, Practical Action adopted a whole system approach to markets and how they affect poor people’s
livelihoods. This was combined with the organisation’s long-standing commitment to participatory,
bottom-up development. At Practical Action, we understood that as temporary, grant-based actors, our
support could not create aid-dependency and had to take a facilitative approach: creating the conditions
for the people who participate in and derive their incomes from markets to drive deep and lasting change
themselves.
Sustainability as adaptive capacity
What does sustainability of change mean?
Traditionally a change in the market system – such as a new arrangement between market actors or an
innovative business model – is understood to be sustainable if it survives after the support from
development agencies ends.
Market systems continually evolve however: new challenges and opportunities appear from within the
market system and beyond. Appropriate practices – business models and arrangements between market
actors – change with prevailing market conditions. Market actors adjust their behaviour and practices to
cope and adapt to changing conditions.
It is therefore useful to understand the sustainability in a market system in terms of this adaptive
capacity.
Definition – Sustainability in a market system: Changes in a market system
are sustainable if the benefits they bring to the system’s efficiency,
inclusiveness and equitability are maintained as market actors continue to
adapt to emerging challenges and opportunities in the evolving market
conditions.

Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
5. Impact at scale as transformations in the whole system
What does impact at scale mean?
Impact on a large scale is about numbers, quality and sustainability:
- Numbers: How many people are benefited by the PMSD process?
- Quality: What kind of benefits are they?
- Sustainability: Are the benefits sustainable?
From our experience achieving real impact at scale involves helping market actors fundamentally
transform the way that they interact and depend on each other across the entire system. Such changes
can sustainably benefit many people involved in the market system in direct and indirect ways. This kind
of systemic transformation can happen in any area of the market system: in the market chain,
supporting input and service markets or in the enabling environment.
Examples from the field – Transforming the market system for impact at scale
Adopt, adapt, expand, respond: In Northeast Peru, Practical Action worked on a pilot scheme to help improve
youth employment. They worked with strategically selected producer cooperatives in the coffee and cocoa sector,
local government line agencies and technical training centres to adopt new skills-based training modules and a
three-way partnership model to help youth to develop in-demand skills and gain employment. The idea showed
promise but the model did not meet the needs of the partners, so the educational authorities adapted the approach
to better respond to the interests of the stakeholders. Initially tested on a small scale, the introduction of the new
model has since attracted the interest of cooperatives and training centres in other regions, who have themselves
begun to explore how they might adapt the model for their own use. Practical Action is monitoring this keenly, as
this promises to expand the impact of the initiative from an isolated success into a fundamental transformation in
the way employment markets in the coffee and cocoa sector work. Practical Action is also seeing other cooperatives
in the pilot regions seeking to take part in the initiative, responding to the new way of doing things that has been
introduced.
Making the environment more enabling: Kassala in eastern Sudan is home to almost 200,000 pastoralists who
produce meat, some of which is exported to the Middle East. They face innumerable challenges blocking their
ability to become competitive and viable players. Through a series of Participatory Market Mapping Workshops and
further interactions Practical Action facilitated semi-nomadic pastoralists and other market actors to come together
to prioritise key issues that affect the entire livestock market system in the area. A border taxation regime between
Kassala and Gedarif was identified as one of the crippling issues affecting competitiveness of the entire area, and
in turn the incomes of the pastoralists. Through the participatory process 35 diverse market stakeholders agreed
that despite their differences lobbying the government together would more likely lead to the removal of the double
taxation than if they worked independently. They democratically created a livestock forum which went on to have
the taxation situation changed and continues to provide a space for further collaboration and cooperation around
animal health, input and market chain issues.

6. Three legs of a stool
In pursuit of sustainable impact at scale PMSD is based on three fundamental principles that underpin
the approach. These are systemic thinking, participation and facilitation.
These three principles are like legs of a three-legged stool. Figure 1: Fundamental principles – three legs of the

same length, then the stool is also not going to be able to at scale
seat someone comfortably. In a similar way, each of the
three principles of PMSD is an essential part of the
approach. If any of these principles is neglected, then the
process is likely to fail to achieve sustainable impact at
scale.
Systemic thinking: Markets are complex systems of
interdependent market actors. In order to develop markets
sustainably it is necessary to look at the market system as
a whole and understand how market actors interact with
each other. This perspective uncovers the most effective
Systemic Facilitation
ways to create deep and lasting changes to the way the
thinking
system works.
Participation
Participation: When market actors come together in an environment of high trust, they are best placed to
assess the market system of which they are all a part, they have the strongest incentives to strengthen
the system to make it work better for them and their collaborative actions are most likely to have lasting
structural impacts.
Facilitation: Our role as grant-based actors should be to provide temporary support that builds conditions
and for market actors to improve their market system now and capabilities to continue doing so and in
the future.
Principles in practice
The practical guidance throughout the PMSD Roadmap is underpinned by the three principles. It is
essential that you read all the steps of the PMSD Roadmap and are familiar with the process as a whole
before you design and plan the strategy. In particular, you will find specific guidance on:
- Systemic thinking in steps 2, 6 and 7;
- Participation in steps 4 – 8;
- Facilitation in steps 4 – 8 and here.

7. Examples from the field – Principles in action in the dairy market system in Nepal: From its first investigations of
the dairy sector in 2008, Practical Action sought the active participation of a range of market actors – local
cooperatives, private companies, small dairy enterprises and government departments – to map the dairy market
system in Western Nepal and identify bottlenecks that limited the competitiveness of the sector as a whole. These
included issues related to smallholder finance, input and information coordination and animal nutrition.
Over the next two years the team leveraged a small fund to facilitate interactions between some of the most
enthusiastic and committed market actors. As a result of strengthening relationships between market actors, a
number of partnerships were formed to pilot innovations targeting the different bottlenecks across the system:
cattle loans, dairy chapters in district chambers of commerce and industry, Nepal’s first low cost, high nutrient
cattle feed, and a business plans for investment of large-scale processors in animal health camps.
Practical Action continue to facilitate market actors across the system to interact, find and test out possible
collaborative solutions to make the market system more efficient and work better for smallholder farmers. Since
2010 efforts have also focused on facilitating media markets to communicate successful pilots to a wider
audience, in order to turn isolated achievements into deep transformations across the system.
(Step 10: Communicating Evidence for Uptake provides guidance on turning isolated achievements into
transformations across the system in a facilitative manner.)

Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
8. Section 3: Build a vision for system change
At this stage you need a preliminary vision for change in the market system. It must be specific and
concrete enough to be fundable and it should seek to be as close as possible to the aspirations of where
the market actors want to go.
Definition – A vision for change in the market system: This is the improved
state of affairs that stakeholders would like to get to and contribute
towards.
Importance of a market actor-led vision for donors
It is crucial that the vision for change that you communicate in your proposal to the donor starts as close
to the aspirations of the market actors as possible. If the vision for change that you communicate in your
proposal is far removed from where the market actors want to go, the vision will have to change in order
for the market actors to remain engaged and motivated. There are two things that are likely to happen;
neither prospect is attractive:
- A rigid vision and uninterested market actors: You do not allow the vision to evolve, committed as
you are to objectives and targets that are in-line with the initial vision. The market actors lose
interest in your efforts to facilitate change in the system as it does not resonate with their
aspirations. The donor is satisfied at first as you continue to deliver against your objectives and
targets. Success is short-lived however. The changes are not led by market actors themselves, others
do not crowd in and the system is not sustainably transformed.
- An evolving vision and an angry donor: The vision evolves to meet the aspirations and interests of the
market actors. You allow this to happen because you seek ownership and drive from the market
actors to ensure that the changes are systemic and thus sustainable and at scale. The donor however
becomes uncomfortable that the process is not delivering what you have promised them. They may
threaten to withdraw the funding required to continue the facilitation process.
Perspectives of market actors and intelligent guesswork
An early challenge for a PMSD process is balancing the concrete commitments most donors expect from
their implementers and the flexibility necessary in the strategy to permit a facilitative approach driven by
market actors themselves to be adopted.
A good PMSD Strategy should incorporate a truly participatory approach that meets the needs of
the market actors while also responding to the interests of prospective donors.
The key to meeting this challenge is intelligent guesswork. Use your existing understanding of the
market system gathered during the market system selection and preliminary mapping and analysis steps
to communicate to donors a vision and strategy that is as close as possible to the aspirations of where
the market actors want to go.
8
Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
9. While it is never possible to know in advance exactly how the market actors will respond to the PMSD
process and what specific solutions may emerge, we have consistently found from our past projects that
it is possible to know fairly reliably what priority issues market actors are likely to crowd around, and
which opportunities for collaborations market actors are likely to take advantage of.
The more you seek the perspectives of strategic market actors in the early steps of the
PMSD process, the more likely your guesswork will capture their aspirations. In Step 1:
Market System Selection and Step 2: Preliminary Market Mapping and Analysis you are
encouraged to seek the input of a range of different market actors, from leading decision-
makers to small-scale market actors, who you hope will change their patterns of
behaviour. You will also find it very valuable to engage with these market actors as you build a vision for
change to communicate with prospective donors.
An evolving vision
The most important stakeholders in the visioning process are the market actors themselves. When the
vision is close to where the market actors want to go themselves, they are likely to take ownership of the
PMSD process and drive the changes that need to happen.
It is natural and desirable for this vision to evolve once the facilitation work begins in the next step. This
is because from Step 4 onwards the PMSD process becomes more participatory, including a greater
number and diversity of market actors. As the perspectives, attitudes and ideas of these other market
actors come in and begin to influence the PMSD process, and market actors take ownership and begin
to drive change themselves they will shape the vision and it will naturally evolve.
Representing marginalised actors in the vision
It is common to find differences in aspirations between market actors. In particular powerful actors are
not likely to see greater inclusion of the poor as something that is important to them unless it is
specifically linked to the growth of their own businesses.
It is important that you actively seek to build a vision for the market system where marginalised actors
not only face greater opportunities to derive an income from the market system but also have greater
power to choose how to participate on their terms and to influence how the system changes and evolves.

10. Action Point B – Build a preliminary vision
Use your preliminary Market Map, analysis of key actors and table of systemic issues to help you with
this Action Point. In your team answer the questions below about what a more efficient, inclusive and
equitable market system could look like. Use the answers to write:
- A one-page vision for change for the market system to include in longer proposals;
- A one-paragraph description of the vision that you can use in an email or as part of a concept
note;
- A one-line headline statement of the vision that grabs attention and excites the reader.
Present it in a language that you are happy to share with a donor as well as an interested market actor.
Seek the input of a range of market actors across the system as much as possible to
answer the questions!
- Market Demand: What is the demand for the market system’s products expected to be in the
future? Are there realistic new markets that will be accessible?
- Issues: What are the systemic issues that will be addressed in the future? In what area of the
Market Map do they come under: market chain, supporting inputs and services, or enabling
environment? Are these issues constraints that will be unblocked, or opportunities that will be
taken advantage of?
- Market Actors: If the systemic issues were addressed, how would the market actors change? Would
there be more of them or fewer? Would the proportion of actors playing different roles change?
Would the existing roles involve new practices and business models to add value (processing,
storage, transport, quality assurance, volumes)? Would there be new opportunities for the poor,
vulnerable and marginalised?
- Relationships: If the systemic issues were addressed, how would the relationships and trust
between the market actors change? How would the improved relationships and trust change the
way that the actors could respond to shocks? How would the improved relationships affect the
actors’ ability to innovate and adapt to new challenges and opportunities? How would power
structures change to give marginalised actors greater choice and self-determination in their
participation in the market system?
- Market supply and upgrading: If systemic issues were addressed, how would the supply of
products to the end-markets change? How would the products be different, in terms of quality,
volume and variety?
10
Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
11. Our recommendations for building a vision for change
Seek the input of a range of market actors: It is unlikely that it will be possible to involve many market
actors at this stage, but the greater participation you secure at this stage, the closer the vision
communicated to the donor will be to the vision you facilitate. Try to consult with both market actors
who are ‘knowledge-rich’ (know a lot about the market system and those that are marginalised in the
system). You can use focus group discussions for this.
Balance ambition and realism: Stakeholders should get excited about the vision for change. Ambitious
visions nurture the motivation in the market actors to commit to the process and in time take lead.
However if the vision is unrealistic and is not achievable, neither the market actors nor the donor will
buy it. You will struggle to get commitment from the market actors, and it is unlikely that your proposal
will be funded.
Stay focused and relevant: Use the information from the preliminary Market Map, analysis of key actors
and systemic issues to keep your visioning process specific and relevant to the market system in
question.
Put in a time-frame: Set goals in the format of “In 5 years time...” or “In 8 years time...”. Being time-
bound will help you be realistic, and will help motivate stakeholders to support action to change things
now!
Create a Market Map vision: Map out the market system of the future. This is a great way of visually
showing what you hope will change between now and then!

12. Section 4: Exit before you enter
In order for them to be sustainable, improvements in the market system must not depend on your on-
going support. This is why it is essential that you devise the facilitation strategy around the time-bound
nature of the interventions.
Plan to facilitate
As a grant-based actor your support is inevitably temporary. It is therefore very important to design the
interventions accordingly, planning ahead for the withdrawal of your support. Figure 2 shows how the
facilitation approach plays out over time. It is adapted from Bernet et al. (2005)1.

At the beginning of the PMSD process the temporary facilitators take a lead in attracting markets actors
to come together. At every opportunity the facilitator builds the trust between the market actors towards
greater collaboration. As trust builds and new business models are tested and adopted, the process of
change becomes increasing led by the market actors themselves. The facilitator is therefore able to wind
down the intensive support and focus on facilitating communication across the system to encourage

in Figure 2 in the annex at the end of the step.
‘Plan your exit before you enter’ is an exercise that will help you design your interventions to be sensitive
to their temporary nature, and to support the changing leadership in the process described in Figure 2.
You will find it at the end of this section in Action Point C.
Wheels of change
Some of our teams also find it helpful to think about three ‘wheels of change’ that enable a market
system that is efficient, inclusive and efficient to maintain these characteristics as it continues to
evolve. If you are interested in learning more about these wheels of change, consult the Supplementary
Guidance Note: Market Systems’ Three Wheels of Change.
Examples from the field – Animal health meetings in Nepal and Bangladesh:
Dairy Chautaris in Nepal are ‘meetings under the tree’ that occur on a regular basis between smallholder dairy
farmers and veterinary service actors. Activities at the Dairy Chautaris include awareness-raising and information-
sharing about cattle diseases and recommended precautionary action, learning sessions about animal health and
nutrition, and publicizing of de-worming, vaccination and AI camps. At first Practical Action and its partners
sponsored and facilitated these meetings with a lot of hands-on organisational and technical support. After 18
months of demonstrating the benefits of these interactions, market actors have taken charge of running the events.
They are often sponsored by large-scale dairy processors and sometimes input suppliers, organised on the ground
by local cooperatives and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and are supported technically by the
government line agency for Livestock Services.
Practical Action’s dairy work in Bangladesh has been running for longer than in Nepal. In Dinajpur, partnerships
similar to Nepal’s Dairy Chautaris have shown good signs that they increase the ability to respond to emerging
challenges. When livestock disease epidemics such as anthrax and foot and mouth disease hit the region, para-
veterinarian associations acted as facilitators to bring emergency vaccination camps to the areas they served. Many
paravet associations originally established through the facilitation of Practical Action have now registered as
companies, and have evolved to take advantage of new opportunities not foreseen by Practical Action’s facilitators:
rent-sharing arrangements with input supply companies and veterinary coverage partnerships with government
livestock services line agencies for example.

14. Action Point C – Plan your exit before you enter
Read the final section – Section 5: Facilitative activities – some ideas – of this step before you carry
out this Action Point. Carry out this exercise and those in Action Point D together. Both Action Points
help you to plan a set of facilitation activities for the PMSD process.
Even when it is very ‘light-touch’ the PMSD process involves delivering a set of interventions in the
market system, and supporting market actors to transform it. This exercise helps you to think about
how the market system will continue to evolve after the end of the PMSD process. It enables you to
strategise from the beginning how processes that you help to kick-start will continue to happen after
your activities have ended.
In your team, use the template below to consider who you expect will take over activities that you
facilitate through the PMSD process.

the PMSD process the PMSD process What needs to What are you going to

Note: There may be activities that you facilitate in the PMSD process that are intended to catalyse, or
kick-start, change. You may feel that these activities do not need to continue after the end of the
process. However, be careful! As market systems continue to evolve and market actors adapt to new
challenges and opportunities these catalytic activities may continue to be relevant. They might provide
a function in the market system that must continue in order for the market system to continue to
evolve in an efficient, inclusive and equitable manner.

15. Section 5: Strategic activities
You should select activities to implement strategically as part of the PMSD process. The objective of
these activities is to facilitate market actors to adopt new routines of behaviour and practices that will
move the system towards the vision for change.
What’s the logic?
Before you identify appropriate activities to facilitate, you should first think about what has to happen in
the market system to move towards the

16. Despite this, in order to prepare a fundable proposal it is necessary to identify and communicate a
number of activities that you will facilitate as part of the PMSD process. You also need to predict the
kinds of activities that are likely to be required as the process progresses, in order to budget for them.
Examples of facilitation activities
Table 1 describes activities that have been used in previous PMSD processes. You can use these
examples to help you identify activities that you can communicate in your proposal and budget for.
Examples 7 – 15 are all forms of subsidies. Make sure you read the following segment about using
subsidies smartly to ensure that they do not undermine the facilitation process.

2 Multi-actor interest forums and groups As market actors begin to ‘crowd around’ priority issues in their
market system, facilitators can encourage groups of actors to
form interest groups to provide the focus often required for

18. Subsidies and direct delivery of market functions
e.g. Input subsidies and training to support high value vegetable production in Northern Province of Sri Lanka
When they are used as part of a strategic facilitation process, subsidies can be powerful instruments to achieve
sustainable changes in the market system. Subsidies can finance demonstrations of innovative practices, reduce
risk for poorer actors, and can unlock critical supporting inputs and services. When they are used badly however,
subsidies can also undermine the efforts of the facilitator. They can create significant risks for the sustainability
and the potential for impact at scale of the PMSD process.
Read the guidance below this table on designing such activities carefully before considering their use.
The following ideas are specific activities and variations on subsidies direct delivery of market functions, so make

providers and insurers. Facilitators guarantee part of the risk taken by
credit-providers and insurers as they pilot new financial products.

reduces the risk for market actors to try new practices. Additionally it
increases the assets of the recipient, which can – if it is supported

fair in Chitwan, Nepal opportunity to do business rather than as a space to solve problems.
From our experience we have found that it helps to seek a professional
organisation such as a chamber of commerce and industry to host and
promote the fair instead of an NGO, to signal the professional,
business nature of the gathering.

20. Using subsidies smartly
When they are used as part of a strategic facilitation process, subsidies (and direct delivery of market
functions) can be powerful instruments to achieve sustainable changes in the market system. Subsidies
can finance demonstrations of innovative practices, reduce risk for poorer actors, and can unlock critical
supporting inputs and services. When they are used badly however, subsidies can also undermine the
efforts of the facilitator. They can create significant risks for the sustainability and the potential for
impact at scale of the PMSD process.
Definition – Subsidies: In the PMSD Roadmap subsidies refer to any
investment made with development aid funding that directly supports
(financially or in-kind) functions that are essential to the market system.
For example subsidies include asset transfers, sharing cost of inputs,
delivering services including training, providing marketing assistance and
providing start-up funding or finance.
Careful design and planning is the best way to ensure that any subsidy you consider applying is used
smartly:
- Keep them minimal: Don’t use subsidies and direct delivery unless you have to. Always look to use
the minimum level of subsidy. Are there any market actors who have the incentives to invest and
support the function in question? Could you facilitate these market actors to address the blockage
themselves?
- Be strategic: If you choose to use subsidies and direct delivery, be strategic about them. Be clear
about their purpose and the objective of their use. Design and plan the activities to achieve this
objective and mitigate the risks of their use. Look at the Examples from the field below for cases of
smart and strategic use of subsidies.
- Be cautious: Be aware of the risks of using subsidies and direct delivery of market functions and
mitigate risks as much as possible if you do choose to use them;
Table 2 presents some of the common risks of using subsidies and ways of mitigating against them:

22. Examples from the field – Smart and strategic use of subsidies:
Demonstration effect in poultry in Nepal: In Nepal, the Practical Action team knew that it did not have the
resources to transform the poultry market system with large scale transfers of poultry to poor people. The team also
recognised that it did not fully understand the complex consequences of doing so. Instead it leveraged its funds to
kick start a ‘test, communicate and copy’ approach. Firstly it subsidised a small number of interested producers to
invest in and test out new rearing practices and contractual arrangements. Innovations are reviewed by a panel of
market actors including the government department for livestock services and natural resource management
researchers. Secondly, innovations that are demonstrated to be successful commercially and deemed
environmentally sustainable by the panel are communicated across the sector to create wide-spread interest among
other producers to take up the new practices. Input and veterinary services companies are leaders in this
communication work – driven by their incentives to encourage small-scale producers to place greater importance in
their products and services. Finally the team also facilitates producers and agricultural banks to work together to
develop appropriate and viable loans for producers wanting to adopt the new practices. These new loans provide
the financial support that replaces the subsidies that Practical Action deployed with the first group of innovating
producers.
Sequenced semi-commercialisation of poor producers in Bangladesh: The team in Bangladesh identified a number
of blockages for very small producers to commercialise part of their farming activities. They devised a set of
sequenced subsidies to help poor producers overcome these barriers and join larger producers in supplying bulk
orders from district level vegetable buyers. First of all the team adopted a ‘demonstration plot in every field’
approach, reducing the risk of trying new practices by covering the additional costs of new inputs. The team also
worked with existing service providers to deliver field schools on new techniques - but often too few service
providers showed interest, and so the team delivered much of the training itself. Over the next few seasons returns
from new practices consistently proved themselves to be impressive. Practical Action facilitated numerous
interactions between producers, service providers and input suppliers. Service providers were far more engaged this
time around, now that the demand for their services had increased among small farmers. They took over many of
the technical extension services that Practical Action and its partners had previously delivered directly, working
with input suppliers and government extension agencies to support them.

23. Action Point D – Activities checklist
Use the table of examples above to select activities to include in the PMSD strategy and budget for.
Remember that as the PMSD process progresses it will be important for you to be responsive and you
may need to change activities or facilitate additional ones. Plan your budget accordingly.
When you have completed a first list of activities, review the checklist of questions below and make
sure the planned activities follow the recommendations.
Checklist
- Empower marginalised actors to prepare them for the participatory process: Have you included
sufficient activities to support marginalised actors to build their market literacy, interaction,
and representation and mobilisation skills? Consult Step 4: Empowering Marginalised Actors
for further guidance on this.
- Engage key actors in the participatory process: Have you budgeted time and resources to
ensure that you are able to ‘hook’ key public and private actors in the market system and
engage them into the change process? Consult Step 5: Engaging Key Actors for more
information on strategies of engagement with powerful actors. Step 8: Facilitating Change
provides further guidance on using smart subsidies to catalyse action from market actors.
- Frequent and intensive interaction for transformation: Sustainable new business practices and
arrangements amongst market actors depend on changing attitudes, increasing levels of trust
and strengthened relationships. Have you budgeted sufficient time and resources to facilitate a
range of different spaces for market actors to meet to discuss issues in the market system and
find solutions? Consult Step 6: Participatory Market Mapping, Step 7: Participatory Planning
and Step 8: Facilitating Change for guidance on how to plan, prepare and facilitate these
interaction spaces.
- Facilitate scale-up: Impact at scale happens when the system as a whole is transformed. Have
you invested sufficient time and resources to support communication activities? These will
ensure that other market actors not involved with small-scale, isolated initiatives hear about,
adapt and respond to innovations in order to ensure the expansion of success into
transformations of the entire system. See Step 8: Facilitating Change and Step 10:
Communicating for Uptake and Impact at Scale.
- Build in flexibility: As the PMSD vision and strategy becomes owned by the market actors it is
natural for it to evolve. Have you considered how to build in the space in the vision and
strategy (and budget) that you communicate with prospective donors to respond to this
evolution?

Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
26. Annex 1: Why are these principles so fundamental?
(Adapted from Morcrette and Rai, 2011)4
Practical Action adopted a systemic approach to market development in 2002. This was in recognition
of the fact that their past enterprise development efforts to improve the access of marginalised people to
skills and technology options and later to business development services (BDS) often had limited
success in delivering sustainable impacts because of weak linkages of these people to the wider
systems.
Systemic concepts of interconnectedness, interdependency and interaction of the parts of the system,
and the inherent feedback loops which promote and inhibit change means that in practice, market
development practitioners should take into account critical actors, the relationships among them and the
context that influences how they behave and interact in the market. Pursuing systemic changes in
market development involves developing a vision for a more efficient, inclusive and equitable market
system and working from a number of angles with critical market players to achieve this goal in a self-
sustaining way.
Since systemic challenges in a market system involve many different actors, and solutions require
coordinated action, Practical Action believes that it is absolutely essential that all the actors are involved
in the process of developing an understanding of the entire system, identifying and addressing
challenges and exploiting the opportunities. Genuine participation, in the sense that the process of
intervention planning and action is led by market actors – and therefore that they feel a strong sense of
ownership over it – is essential to ensuring that the transformations persist after the end of Practical
Action’s involvement in facilitating the market system.
Facilitation of market development aims to assist market actors to build relationships and undertake
collaborative action. This enhances their ability to continuously improve their productivity, thus the
competitiveness and sustained economic and social gains of market systems. For Practical Action, in
practice this means above all to avoid entering the market system and delivering missing or problematic
market functions themselves. In particular for example, Practical Action’s teams avoid becoming input
or service providers or to act as marketing agents. In the absence of Practical Action and its partners
unblocking systemic constraints directly however, the onus of intervention shifts onto catalysing market
actors to address blockages themselves. Nurturing tacit characteristics – confidence, trust and influence
– of market actors and their relationships between each other becomes critical to achieving sustainable
transformations in the market system.
Furthermore facilitation is an essential part of building the capacity of the actors to react adaptively to
their often fast-changing market context. The challenges and opportunities identified by Practical Action
and market actors at any point in time will most likely not be the same issues that these market actors
will face in the future as their system changes. The facilitation approach, by putting the emphasis of
development agency intervention on building the capacity of market actors to collaboratively solve their
own problems as they encounter them, strives for an in-built adaptive sustainability which direct
intervention cannot achieve.

Beta Version 1 – Jan 2012
27. Annex 2: Planning your exit before you enter – A facilitation narrative
Figure 2 shows how the facilitation process begins with much of the initiative and energy for action
resting with the facilitators. The facilitator’s job at this stage is to nurture the same initiative and energy
in the market actors themselves by bringing them together and helping them to see a shared vision for
change.
As engagement and energy amongst the market actors builds, the facilitator helps the market actors to
identify blockages and opportunities that affect the entire system and seeks to crowd market actors
around these shared issues. This process in itself helps to strengthen relationships, change attitudes and
build trust.
These changes in the intangible characteristics of the market actors come with time through intensive
interaction with each other. At first the facilitator enables these interactions but it is a great sign when
actors begin to organise interactions themselves. Facilitating these changes will be bumpy, and when
disagreement inevitably happens it may seem that the process is losing ground. A good facilitator will
help to smooth the worst of the disagreements and help market actors to move on and continue engaging
even in the light of early failures.
As relationships improve, market actors will begin to explore new solutions to meet the challenges in
their market system. At this point the facilitator is likely to need to facilitate negotiation, provide
technical assistance with the development of new business models, and sometimes provide smart
catalytic support and subsidies where necessary so that market actors can test new practices and
arrangements. Once again, bumps and failures are likely, and the role of the facilitator is to enable
market actors to learn from failure and try again.
Over time, after the false starts successful new arrangements and practices will emerge and become
standard practice for the leading market actors. The facilitator should now focus on augmenting this
success by assisting less innovative actors to copy and adopt new ways of working, expanding the impact
of changes and transforming the system. Only when changes in the system happen on a large scale as a
result of this crowding in process will other parts of the system and other interconnected markets
respond and adapt in turn.
Through this process, the role of the facilitator will naturally diminish and become more light-touch as
market actors, in collaboration with each other, are able to take on new challenges and opportunities by
themselves.
