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 purpose of Architectural and Engineering for Ethiopia Health Infrastructure Program is to provide professional architectural and engineering support in infrastructure design, tendering, construction oversight and program quality assurance for the Ethiopia Health Infrastructure Program. This program is the primary TA mechanism for providing cost effective designs. Additional objectives of this program include the development of a quality assurance plan for the USAID/Ethiopia Health Infrastructure Program; development of guidance for health facilities maintenance and operations; and capacity building and training in selected and relevant areas to the FMoH staff. The program is implemented in regions with particularly high HIV/AIDS prevalence including Addis Ababa, Oromia, Amhara, Tigray and SNNPR. In addition to HIV/AIDS caseloads, health facilities built/renovated under this program will also be utilized to treat other chronic diseases like malaria and TB. The program will place special attention on maternal and child health as delivery rooms in the new health centers will be properly designed; renovated delivery rooms will be upgraded to the maximum possible standard. Program aligns with GHI's Pillar 3: Improved Health Systems and PF Goal 3: Health systems necessary for universal access are functional by 2014. The program is implemented in coordination with the Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH) and its regional offices collaborate on site selection, design and approval as well as offer expertise and lessons learned. All new designs will be gender sensitive and incorporate access for clients and staff with disabilities. There are no plans to purchase or lease any vehicles. This partner is using pipeline funds for ongoing COP 12 activities.
Through the capacity building and training component of the USAID/Ethiopia Health Infrastructure Program (EHIP) the prime partner, Tetra Tech, provides advice, recommendations, and assistance to the Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH) and Regional Health Bureau (RHB) engineers and architects. This component of the program complements the larger EHIP construction and renovation program implemented by International Relief and Development. Tetra Tech's areas of focus for training and capacity building include quality control/assurance, and standards and procedures in monitoring the adequacy and acceptability of health infrastructure. In addition, they will also develop health facilities maintenance standards, guidance, plans, and training materials for ongoing and preventive health facility maintenance. The partner will supervise sites that are under construction and renovation by USAID and provide recommendations to USAID. For each site, they will develop a performance tracking sheet with important milestones that reflect progress and quality. Utilizing this as a base, the progress of each site will be tracked starting from the design phase up until construction or renovation is completed. Accordingly, the data collected will be utilized to improve the quality of design, construction materials utilized and the overall facility. Health centers which will be renovated lack basic facilities such as water supply and waste water disposal lines, ultimately limiting their capacity to provide effective ART services. These facilities also face space limitations that hinder their ability to provide quality patient care and pose concerns regarding infection control. This program incorporates designs that aim to improve the space, while making health centers clean, attractive for HIV/AIDS patients. The geographic focus of the program is guided by plans regarding the decentralization of ART services, with particular emphasis on areas of high HIV/AIDS prevalence and substantial ART patient volume at facilities. Focus regions include Addis Ababa, Amhara, Oromia, SNNPR, and Tigray. The program will run through 2015. .
