LAM Systems Mainstreaming
The Need to Mainstream
The DENR issued two administrative orders to apply the innovations at selected areas. The DENR Administrative Order (DAO) No. 2007-09 prescribed the

Systematic Adjudication (SA)
process for mass titling on a barangay-by-barangay or locality-by-locality basis and the provision of guidelines for the designation of SA areas and the creation and organization of the SA Team. The establishment of the Provincial Systematic Adjudication Management Committee was also authorized to provide technical and policy guidance and supervise operations of the SA
Approach.

DAO No. 2007-10, on the other hand, made effective the application of modifications in the requirements and procedures for land survey to simplify, fast track, and rationalize its cost and documentary requirements and to achieve titling targets. These administrative orders, in effect, began the effort to mainstream LAM innovations. However, with the end of LAMP2 in the offing and the lesson from LAMP1, a need for a mainstreaming strategy has become urgent to ensure the
continuity of the effort and the acceleration of the institution of these reforms.

Thus, there arose the need to define the most appropriate institutional arrangements to ensure that:

1. New technologies and body of knowledge on land administration are mainstreamed into key LAM agencies, proceeding logically from its roots (i.e. the capacity-building work being undertaken by PIO and OSS Leyte for the in-coming staff of the Tenure Security roll-out provincial project
sites); and

2. The continued identification, creation, representation, and distribution with key government agencies and academic institutions, is sustained in these areas.

LAMP1 and LAMP2 have produced technologies and knowledge that will contribute to the reform in land administration and management (LAM) in the country when mainstreamed. Review of project documents and interviews with resource persons facilitated the identification of these results as systems innovations, technical trainings, curricular programs, reports, research, and cooperation with government and non-government agencies. These are classified under five areas, namely:

    ·LAM Systems Mainstreaming,
   
·Research and Development,
   
·Continuing Education,
   
·Learning Resources, and
   
·Advocacy and Linkages.

LAM Systems Mainstreaming constitutes three programs, namely:
technology transfer, technical training, and technical advisory.

These are the core programs of the center.

Technology Transfer
The technologies of LAMP include the following:
   
·Cadastral Index Mapping,
   
·Systematic Adjudication,
   
·One-Stop- Shop,
   
·Valuation System,
   
·Land Titling Computerization,
   
·Land Administration and Management System,
   
·Cadastral Survey and Records Management.

Technical Trainings
These technologies are accompanied by technical trainings to ensure the transfer of technology. The operating manuals of these technologies will be used as basis for the design of trainings. A pool of experts will be tapped for the delivery of these trainings.

Technical Advisory
The trainings will be supplemented by technical advisory to support the adoption of these technologies. The advisers will also come from the pool of experts that will be capacitated for this purpose.
