2 EVM setting a standard for the vaccine supply chain The Effective Vaccine Management (EVM) Improvement Process Assessment & Recommendations Other Information Countries are encouraged to carry out an assessment every three years. The assessment is conducted by the MOH with the technical support of an expert independent consultant. Implementation & Monitoring Improvement Plan The key outcome of an assessment is a list of recommendations to address weaknesses and reinforce strengths. An improvement plan is prepared and implemented by the national EPI team, with the financial and technical support of partners. February 2013 TechNet meeting, Dakar, Senegal 2

3 EVM Assessment The 9 EVM Criteria At each level of the supply chain, each criterion is assessed against minimum standards. Information Systems & Supportive Management Data is collected from representative samples of vaccine and immunization facilities. Distribution storage Vaccine Management Stock Management Capacity Vaccine Arrivals The data is collected using questionnaires and through observation. Maintenance At each level of the supply chain, each of the 9 criteria is assigned a score out of 100%. The target score is set at 80% for each criterion.

4 # assessments (cumulative) EVM Assessment EVM assessment uptake 1. Pilot EVM Assessments in Vietnam and Senegal in At the end of 2010 GAVI requires all new vaccine support applicant countries to carry out an EVM assessment and prepare an improvement plan. 3. At the end of 2011 GAVI requires all countries in receipt of support to provide an up-to-date improvement plan implementation status each year By the end of 2013 all GAVI eligible countries should have carried out at least one EVM assessment, and many will have carried out two February 2013 TechNet meeting, Dakar, Senegal 4

9 frequency EVM Improvement Plan Improvement Plan Content Improvement plans vary in the number and nature of improvement activities number of activities in improvement plan Some improvement plans contain a long list of very specific improvement activities, others contain a shorter list of more generic activities. Some improvement plans contain only programmatic improvement activities, others contain both programmatic and strategic activities. February 2013 TechNet meeting, Dakar, Senegal 9

10 EVM Improvement Plan Implementation Evidence of implementation* In April 2012 (red line), GAVI required approximately 40 countries to report on the implementation status of their improvement plans. Assuming a three year implementation window, about 15 countries reported being on or ahead of schedule. Approximately 20 countries either did not report or reported no progress. * Implementation numbers are indicative only (±5 activities).
