S4SIPMS conducts Site Improvement through Monitoring Systems (SIMS) assessments to continuously monitor and assess sites receiving PEPFAR funding, and to ensure effective, quality program implementation and adherence to national and international standards and accountability. The project is responsible for planning and conducting SIMS assessments, capacity building data literacy, and synthesizing and analyzing evaluation lessons to determine policy implications.
