The Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP) How-To Guide assists grant applicants and grantees in developing PMPs, a mandatory component for federal programs per 18 FAM 301.4-3. This guide focuses on performance indicators, categorizing them as output-level (measuring immediate deliverables like the number of people trained) and outcome-level (measuring achievements like percentage change in knowledge). PMPs must include at least two output-level and one outcome-level indicator per project outcome, adhering to SMART criteria (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound). Grantees are required to use at least three CT Standard Indicators, along with customized indicators where appropriate. Key components of a PMP include indicator definition, data disaggregation (e.g., by sex, location), data sources (primary or secondary), reporting frequency, responsible points of contact, unit of measure, initial baselines, and final targets. The document emphasizes robust PMPs that capture both outputs and outcomes, with a strong recommendation to maximize the use of CT Standard Indicators and disaggregate all people-related data. A sample PMP template illustrates how to structure indicators for project outcomes, providing examples for output and outcome-level indicators, including specific metrics, definitions, data sources, and targets.

This guide helps CT/P grant applicants and grantees develop Performance Monitoring Plans (PMPs) by detailing essential components and best practices. PMPs are required for all programs and projects, outlining how implementation will be measured and monitored. Key components include performance indicator types (output-level and outcome-level), with specific requirements for each. Indicators must be quantitative,

The Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP) How-To Guide assists CT/P grant applicants and grantees in developing PMPs, a mandatory component for federal programs. This guide details key PMP components, focusing on performance indicators, which must be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound). It differentiates between output-level indicators (measuring immediate deliverables) and outcome-level indicators (measuring achieved results), requiring at least two output and one outcome indicator per project outcome. The PMP also outlines indicator definition, data disaggregation (e.g., by sex or location), data sources (primary or secondary), reporting frequency, responsible personnel, unit of measure, initial baselines, and final targets. Grantees must include at least three CT Standard Indicators, including one outcome-level, and can develop custom indicators. The document provides a sample PMP template to illustrate effective measurement strategies for project activities.

Key PMP components include indicator definition, data disaggregation (e.g., by location, sex), data sources (primary or secondary), reporting frequency (ideally quarterly), responsible personnel, unit of measure, initial baselines, and final targets. The document emphasizes robust PMPs that capture both outputs and outcomes, with a minimum of one outcome-level and two output-level indicators per project outcome. It also includes a sample CT project PMP template and an annex listing CT-Wide Standard Indicators.
