Potential, Opportunities, Constraints And Challenges (Pocc) Analysis

The POCC analysis is a tool used to streamline development issues and interventions before they are programmed for implementation. This analysis is important in helping to fine-tune development goals, objectives, policies and strategies. About twelve development issues of the District have been subjected to this analysis, as indicated in 

In this report, Potential, Opportunities, Constraints and Challenges have been defined as follows:

Potentials
Potentials are latent strengths or untapped resources in the district, which are capable of being tapped for the district’s development. e.g. Availability of bye laws on internal revenue generation. 

Opportunities:
They are positive and development enhancing factors that are external to the district, and on which the district does not have direct control. For example, availability of the DACF and HIPC Funds.

Constraints:
 Constraints are internal factors (within the district) that inhibit or restrict the district’s efforts to unearth and fully utilize its potentials. e.g , bad terrain, low communal spirit etc.

Challenges:
 They are negative external factors that inhibit the pursuit of development interventions in the district.
