Overview Narrative

Monitoring and evaluation of PEPFAR/South Africa implementing partners has been a priority since the inception of the PEPFAR program and will continue to become an increasing priority as budgets are reduced, efficiencies are sought, and programmatic and financial responsibility for parts of the PEPFAR program are transitioned to the South African Government. In order to strengthen the Monitoring and Evaluation of the PEPFAR program, several information management systems have been developed, each more sophisticated than its predecessor. This proposed program will build on prior investments to develop information management systems for PEPFAR reporting and improve them by modernizing the PEPFAR indicator reporting system. The new proposal will include cost savings measures by procuring a commercial off the shelf (COTS) system that will be web based yet accessible to rural sites with limited internet access. The new system will have significantly lower maintenance costs than the current system, but will use many of the best features of the current system. The newly procured system will also be flexible enough so that PEPFAR implementing partners will be able to modify it to suit other program monitoring needs, thus improving data monitoring processes beyond the PEPFAR reporting process.

Overview Narrative

Aurum will work in collaboartion with the USAID partner(s) to provide comprehensive HIV/TB care and treatment program in 5 districts to achieve the following four objectives:

Improve HIV-related population outcomes

Build the capacity of facility and district management teams

Provide support to the district and/or sub-district health facilities in identifying and setting up policies and programs to improve the district’s facility response to providing HIV/TB care, treatment, laboratory and prevention services

Support transition to a sustainable national comprehensive HIV/TB care and treatment program that supports two key priorities of the SA government: Primary health care re-engineering and national health insurance.

Partners will be expected to work in facilities in up to 10 prescribed Districts in a mixture of rural, urban and peri-urban settings.

Aurum will also be asked to support activities at the district level considered to reflect core strengths of CDC as an agency including:

Quality of lab services in the district

Surveillance activities in the district

Health Management Information Systems support in alignment with the government-led 3-tiered approach and in alignment with the district level.

The interventions will combine health systems strengthening, community-based and facility-based strategies to deliver HIV/AIDS and TB services. The approach will be to build capacity of managers and technical staff through mentoring and technical assistance to ensure local ownership and sustainability when the project concludes.
