On Monday and Wednesday this week we had an evaluation workshop of the AEO Brazil project that has been up and running for 4 years.

The workshop was held at Receita Federals building in central Sao Paulo.

It was a very valuable exercise and there is no doubt that this project is one of the best and most intereting project I have ever worked on.

It is amazing what has been acheived here.

I think that it is very valuable to take time to reflect and evaluate a project of this size, or any project, to fimd out what were the success criterias, high-lights, challenges, lessons learned – what could have been better, and what are the results of the project.

It is also important to do a proper exit strategy, a hand-over to the organization where a major reform programme becomes institutionalized for a sustanable future.

It is always a great pleasure to arrive to Brazil, one of my favourite places on Earth.

I have worked here for many years, but the last four years I have been in Brazil 6-7 times a year due to the AEO Brazil programme where I have been Senior Advisor supporting the design, development and implementation of the most advanced trusted trader programme in the world.
