The overall goal of the program is to strengthen the capacity of the Zambia Defence Force (ZDF) to develop, implement, manage, and evaluate effective and sustainable health supply systems to ensure the continuous availability of ARVs, HIV tests, and laboratory commodities in health facilities in the three branches of the military mainly Zambia Army (ZA), Zambia National Service (ZNS) and Zambia Air Force (ZA).

Key objectives of this program include:

• Develop and implement a ZDF logistics management system for laboratory commodities.

• Reinforce implementation of the ARV and HIV test commodities supply chain management system.

• Design and implement a computerization plan for the Logistics Management Information System (LMIS) for selected ZDF sites.

• Ensure increased availability of health commodities at ZDF health facilities through performance monitoring and improvement of the various logistics systems.

Mechanism Target Information

Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
