Abstract: This article explores factors affecting coordination among actors involved in policy implementation at the upazila level in Bangladesh. Based on qualitative studies in 2009 and 2016, it suggests that inter-organisational coordination has been problematic at the upazila level due to the lack of use of both formal and informal procedures of coordination. Delayed execution, lack of quality, and wastage of resources are significant symptoms of when coordination of policy implementation is lacking among implementing actors. The article argues that formal procedures are required in combination with informal procedures to ensure better coordination.
