Monitoring System

Throughout the four years of implementation, NURHI tracked progress according to a Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP) that specifies indicators for each project objectives, data sources, frequency of reporting, and targets.

The PMP specifies indicators, targets, and milestones for tracking. Many of NURHI’s indicators come from the government Health Monitoring Information System (HMIS), which NURHI modified to track some project indicators, and trained the Family Planning Providers Network (FPPN) service providers in its use. NURHI also designed the Family Planning Budget Expenditure Tracking system for monitoring contraceptive commodities logistics, and a system to determine sources of referrals for family planning services. Data from these sources are reported quarterly and annually during review and planning meetings in each city and for the project as a whole.
