The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Zambales headed by Provincial Director Armi V. Bactad held its first provincial team conference (PTC) via virtual platform on January 24, 2022, highlighting the team's approach and strategies in the implementation of the Department's programs, projects and activities (PPAs) for year 2022.
The activity served as a venue for the DILG Zambales team to tackle the updates on various PPAs such as Devolution Transition Plan (DTP) quality assessment, Local Council for the Protection of Children (LCPC), Communicating for Perpetual End to Extreme Violence and Forming Alliance Towards Positive Change and Enriched Communities (C4PEACE), and Support to Barangay Development Program (SBDP), among others.
Likewise, status of reports submission and reports to be submitted under Monitoring and Evaluation Section (MES), Capability Development Section (CDS), Financial and Administrative Section (FAS), updates on the various issuances and Quality Management System (QMS) were discussed. In addition, revision of the provincial order on the designation/ assignment of the programs to focal persons was also facilitated, as the team strategizes to effectively implement a wide array of PPAs.
During the conference, Provincial Director Bactad expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the team despite of the depleted manpower.
"As another year begins, pagtulung-tulungan natin ang DILG Zambales para mas maging maayos ang samahan at mas gumanda ang performance at pagtatrabaho natin bilang iisang Team Zambales. We thanked everyone for your support sa paggawa natin ngayon ng kanya-kanyang assignments" PD Bactad said.
As the team embraces this year's challenges and opportunities, DILG Zambales personnel signified their commitment in maintaining their strive for excellence and provide better services to the local government units (LGUs) and clientele for the coming years ahead.
