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.
DQAEval is a five year project designed to implement a comprehensive performance planning, monitoring, evaluation and reporting system to measure the performance of USAID/Nigeria's development activities. This system will enable USAID/Nigeria to fulfill its performance monitoring, evaluation, reporting and dissemination requirements as mandated in the ADS and other Agency policies and procedures. The system will also meet PEPFAR reporting requirements as defined by the Office of the Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC) including the new generation indicators.
The Contractor will provide the following services:
Performance Monitoring - The contractor shall work with the PEPFAR team to build and continuously review the Performance Management systems of implementing partners to ensure compliance with Agency guidelines. This contractor will coordinate gathering, analysis and where required, dissemination of data that demonstrate results being achieved by Mission programs. It will keep track of key data produced by GON counterparts, donors, academic institutions, regional and national data sources thereby promoting synergy and preventing duplication of efforts.
Evaluation - The contractor shall work with PEPFAR Team to set up an annual evaluation schedule for their activities; advise AOTRs/COTRs and implementing partners on the development of Statements of Work for Contract / Assistance instruments as they develop their monitoring and evaluation plans; ensure inclusion of key and appropriate evaluation questions; recommend methods to ensure effective and timely use of evaluations to facilitate corrective actions, and most importantly disseminate lessons learned.
Information Dissemination and Capacity Building for M&E - The Contractor shall assess quantitative progress towards achievements of program results; conduct workshops and seminars on monitoring and evaluation; prepare press releases, brochures and other written documentations to disseminate results; collate and widely disseminate data on composite indicators and indices used by PEPFAR implementing partners, including other donors and Government of Nigeria and provide capacity building workshops for USAID/Nigeria, implementing partners and government counterparts to improve knowledge of monitoring and evaluation.
Strengthen Performance Management and Evaluation Capacity of Nigerian Partner
Institution - The contractor shall establish partnerships with a select group of Nigerian
institutions that can provide capacity building in such areas as survey field operations,
planning, programming, data entry and analysis, all geared towards improving and
supporting the capacity of Nigerian research and data gathering institutions to conduct
high-quality evaluative research. Additional Purchased Services (surveys, analyses, evaluations and assessments) - The contractor will work collaboratively with the PEPFAR team to identify key pieces of analytic and/or survey work that will contribute to the team's decision making process, resolve development questions, guide resource allocation, enhance program impact and provide success stories, best practices and lessons learned.
This Contract will be managed by the USAID/Nigeria Program Office. USAID HIV/AIDS-TB team will have an activity manager assigned within the team that will work closely with the HIV/AIDS Team Leader and the COTR.
Links to other activities Using the SI fund, DQAEval will provide comprehensive performance planning, monitoring and evaluation and reporting systems to the HIV/AIDS-TB team.
Populations targeted the project will target the HIV/AIDS-TB team, implementing partners and state level M&E.
