Key Achievements

Achieved 95% compliance rating improvement across all states, trained 150+ finance officers, and established sustainable audit readiness protocols. The program resulted in improved donor confidence and continued funding commitments for national health programs.

Impact Metrics

150+ finance staff trained across 36 states, 95% improvement in compliance ratings, zero major audit findings, and establishment of lasting institutional capabilities that continue to function effectively beyond program completion.

Sustainability Focus

Built local capacity through train-the-trainer programs, established peer-to-peer learning networks, and created comprehensive documentation systems that ensure continued effectiveness of implemented systems and procedures.

Long-term Impact and Sustainability

The comprehensive approach resulted in lasting institutional change that extends far beyond individual audit cycles. Strengthened financial management systems now serve as the foundation for continued donor confidence and expanded funding opportunities.

The training programs created a network of skilled professionals capable of maintaining high standards independently, while the standardized SOPs ensure consistency and quality across all regional operations. This sustainable model has since been adapted by other countries in the region.
