The DILG Quirino, thru the Project Development and Monitoring Unit (PDMU), initiated the conduct of a one-day activity entitled “Quirino UPGRADES for LFPs or Upscaling Performance of LGUs through Records and Data Encoding in the SubayBAYAN” on February 11, 2021 at the Quirino Watersports Complex, Capitol Hills, San Marcos, Cabarroguis.
The activity, which was participated by LGU encoders, aimed to facilitate the completion of data entries of Locally Funded Projects in the system in order to boost LGU compliance to DILG Memorandum Circular No. 2018-114 dated 20 July 2018 which provides for the guidelines on the implementation of the SubayBAYAN.
DILG Quirino Provincial Director Salvacion Z. Baccay encouraged the participants over the past achievement of Quirino province in terms of compliance rating in the region. She said that every update the LGUs make is a big contribution not just for the municipality but the entire province.
Engineer II April Rose M. Galutan presented the updated status of SubayBAYAN Compliance Rating per LGU as of February 10, 2021. The overall rating was derived from the different areas: Project Profile, Images, Implementation Information, Milestones, Physical Accomplishment and Financial Accomplishment of each project. This is a guide for the LGUs to track their percentage of compliance in each given area.
LGOO V/PDMU Concurrent Chief Rowena R. Gulgulway explained the guidelines on the implementation of SubayBAYAN. She presented the additional system features that includes video sharing/storage facility, offline encoding facility, process of updating the status of cancelled projects, rectification of erroneously encoded financial data and the timelines every month that needs to be accomplished. She also highlighted the redesigned system and reporting process aligned with the guidelines in monitoring under the new normal provided in DILG Memorandum Circular No. 20-098 dated 06 July 2020 subject Guidance on the Conduct of On-site Monitoring under the New Normal.

Thereafter, a hands-on demonstration where actual encoding/uploading/updating of data was done. Engineer III Cabrillos assisted the participants especially those who were newly assigned as LGU encoders in navigating the System.
After the validation of updated data in the system, PDMU Chief Gulgulway presented the validated status of SubayBAYAN which showed an increase in the compliance ratings of the LGUs.

It provides a real time information on the physical and financial status of subprojects and actual location of subprojects thru map overlays and dashboard graphical presentations. (SOURCE: ENGR.
