PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.

The Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL) is a laboratory partner of the Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention (CDC), Global AIDS Program in Swaziland, in support of the US President'sEmergency Program for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). APHL is assisting the Swaziland Ministry of Health
(MOH) to implement a national laboratory information system in all MOH laboratories. In the first phaseof this implementation, 6 laboratories will have electronic Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) installed.The scope of the project includes: 1) contracting with a vendor to supply electronic LIS software andsystem support; 2) contracting with a vendor to provide hardware i.e. install computer hardware - PCs,networking cables and related items; 3) contracting with a vendor to provide basic Windows computertraining; 4) ensuring that any physical renovation needed at Phase I sites is completed and support isprovided as necessary; 5) overseeing the installation of the LIS software and training of users in LISapplication; and 6) overseeing the maintenance of the LIS operating system. Contract vendors will beresponsible to deliver, install, conduct all training and provide on-site support services necessary for thesuccessful implementation of this project.
APHL will continue to assist CDC/Swaziland and MOH in the planning, design and implementation of alaboratory information system (LIS) to support HIV/AIDS care and treatment. Using the APHLmethodology described in the "Guidebook for Implementation of Laboratory InformationSystems", APHL will collaborate with CDC Swaziland and MOH to develop the scope ofwork (SOW) and assess selected laboratory sites to identify paper based strengtheningactivities and high level functional requirements for a pilot LIS. Assist with the formation ofan LIS Working Group with representation from CDC, MOH and other stakeholders inSwaziland. In consultation with CDC and MOH, Award a contract to an appropriate LISprovider for the pilot LIS and manage implementation of the system. APHL will work withthe selected vendor to implement the laboratory information system at the national laboratoryand at least 2 district laboratories (2nd tier laboratories) by the end of the fiscal year.
