Monitoring the implementation of the strategic plan is done through systematic tracking of activities and actions to assess progress. Progress is measured against specific targets and schedules included in the implementation plan.
A structured Performance Management Plan (PMP) to serve as a key management, planning, monitoring, evaluation and learning tool is developed. The PMP assists the Centre in meeting high standards of accountability, transparency, and efficacy in achieving the Centre’s strategic objectives.
The PMP includes clearly defined performance indicators and targets for both operational and technical components of the Centre.
The PMP follows the same strategic framework outlined in this Strategic Plan, and provides mechanisms for collection of both qualitative and quantitative data on process/outputs and outcome indicators to gauge progress towards the attainment of the strategic objectives and to inform program planning and decision making.
