EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This quarterly performance report, of the Monitoring and Evaluation Support Project (MESP), covers the
first quarter of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 (October – December 2021), fulfilling the contractual
obligation between Management Systems International (MSI) and the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID)/South Sudan.

Since its inception in October 2019, MESP has provided management and administrative support as
required by the Mission under three components, Performance Monitoring and Reporting; Support for
Evaluations, Assessments, and Special Studies; and Strategic Communications. However, in the second
quarter of FY2021, the scope of the task order was revised to shift resources toward implementation of
the baseline household survey, GIS mapping support, and remote third-party monitoring of
USAID/South Sudan’s activities. The requirement to shift project resources primarily to support
initiating the baseline survey in six “flood-prone” counties also necessitated a major reduction in
personnel, eliminating 13 staff positions within thirty days.

The Mission approved modification #4 of the Task Order in July 2021, extending MESP TO4 Period of
Performance through December 31, to provide the resources necessary (1) to enable MESP to conduct
the baseline survey in the remaining seven target counties; (2) to support the recruitment and
deployment of 26 field-based Community Monitors (CMs) and five Juba-based specialists to monitor
Office of Humanitarian Assistance (OHA) activities; (3) to initiate backbone coordination services in the
Mission’s target counties to promote the geographic-focused convergence of Implementing Partner (IP)
services; and (4) to restore the array of monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) services — including
Data Quality Assessments (DQAs), Political Economy Analyses, Pause and Reflect (P&R) exercises,
special studies, evaluations, and PMP-related support. In the July contract modification, the provision of
MEL services was restored and became Component 4; originally such services had been provided under
Component 1.

MESP completed data collection and analysis for Phase One in September 2021 after interviewing 3,563
households, which represents 94 percent of the sample target. During the period under review, MESP
conducted household listing and data collection for Phase 2, covering the seven remaining counties. In
total, 4,309 households were interviewed during this period, representing 98 percent of the sample
target. Combined, there were 7,872 households surveyed across the 13 target counties. To expedite
delivery of the final report, MSI STTA data analysts travelled to Juba in early December to support data
analysis and preparations for the debrief and the final report. MESP delivered the final debrief to the
Mission on December 14 and submitted the final report on January 3, 2022.

On November 29, MESP held a P&R workshop with OHA and PRO to review CMS performance,
identify bottlenecks, and generate recommendations to improve performance. Members recommended
a cultural shift toward the Data Utilization Tool among A/CORs, recruitment of two additional
specialists to cater for health and protection sectors, deployment of data transmission devices, noting
the CMS in all solicitations, and a follow-up P&R in six months. Meanwhile, MESP Community Monitors
(CMs) continued to monitor the contextual factors affecting implementation of BHA activities in the
field by collecting data on security, floods, and food commodity prices. The CMs also collected data on
service availability in OHA locations using the thematic monitoring tools.

1   |   MESP FY2022 Q1 REPORT                                                                    USAID.GOV
After completing scoping consultations, MESP convened a workshop with USAID and the 13 IPs on
November 9-10 to discuss and agree on a coordination charter - an agreement governing coordination
between IPs. The charter promulgates that through strategic coordination, USAID IPs can achieve
greater impact than any one partner can achieve alone. The charter is also a behavioral contract and
represents a commitment to pursue thoughtful coordination in service of beneficiaries and to contribute
to a more self-reliant South Sudan.

On November 4, MESP conducted a virtual After-Action Review (AAR) for the FY2021 DQA with staff
from PRO, Office Directors and A/CORs from the Technical Offices. Discussions focused on key
findings from the FY2021 DQA, what went well, and recommendations to improve future DQA
processes. In retrospect, members commended the A/COR refresher and IP orientation training, the
cooperation of IPs in scheduling DQA consultations, and the timely sharing of requested documentation
by IPs. However, members agreed to ensure DQA plans are prepared well in advance, to improve
communication with IPs when scheduling consultations; to encourage participation of A/CORs in the
consultations; to prioritize indicators reported across IPs; and to provide MEL training to IPs.

MESP continued work on the development of a TPM data visualization tool for USAID/South Sudan. The
tool is a technological advance toward enhancing the Mission’s capability to monitor and verify activities
implemented by its IPs. The tool seeks to reduce lags in reporting by providing the Mission with access
to site visit reports as soon as they are uploaded into the Knowledge Management (KM) portal, thus
expediting decision-making on TPM findings.

MESP monitored 12 nutrition sites, two schools, and three warehouses, in four counties of Ayod, Tonj
North, Leer, and Mayendit. Floods continued to devastate livelihoods and aggravate the humanitarian
crisis across the four counties. Nevertheless, WFP and UNICEF continue to provide life-saving
humanitarian support through nutrition and food assistance interventions.

Throughout the reporting period, MESP held joint weekly progress review meetings with Policy Link to
enhance coordination and information sharing between the two platforms. MESP Backbone
Coordination staff attended two sense-making workshops in Jur River County from November 29 to
December 7, with a purpose to continue building momentum toward effective collaboration between
the citizens of Jur River and USAID IPs by preparing communities for joint integrated planning.

KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS

•    MESP conducted a Data Utilization Tool training workshop for OHA and PRO staff

        •    MESP held joint weekly progress review meetings with Policy Link to enhance coordination and
             information sharing between the two platforms.

CHALLENGES

        •    There has been low demand for MEL services including TPM, evaluations and special studies
             since MESP modification in July 2021.

        •    Limitations in internet and mobile connectivity posed challenges for coordination, security, and
             syncing of data for the household survey.

        •    Poor road conditions and security threats requiring adaptations to the data collection schedule.

        •    Identification of EA boundaries and prevalence of deserted EAs for Baseline Survey data
             collection proved to be a challenge in some areas.

RECOMMENDATIONS

        •    MESP and the Mission should continue employing the flexibility required to quickly arrive at
             solutions, considering the current flooding challenges, COVID-19 situation, and conflict
             circumstances of South Sudan.

INTRODUCTION
Since October 1, 2019, MESP Task Order (TO) 4 has provided USAID/South Sudan with technical,
analytic, advisory, training, Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E), logistics, special projects and other related
services in support of the Mission’s Collaborating, Learning and Adapting (CLA) agenda. Implemented by
Management Systems International (MSI), MESP has delivered technical assistance in performance
monitoring and reporting, evaluations, assessments, special studies and strategic communications to
assist the Mission to monitor, evaluate, manage and relay information about its activities and results in
South Sudan for improved service delivery and results.

As a demand-driven activity, MESP requires flexibility, rapid response, adaptive management and strong
M&E technical expertise. MSI’s approach is predicated on providing a range of technical and MEL support
options that can be tailored and adapted to meet the Mission’s needs. MESP requires close collaboration
with the USAID’s Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) to identify priorities, address emergent
needs and ensure that outputs are responsive to USAID’s requirements within the TO4 Statement Of
Work (SOW), annual work plans, and budget parameters.

COMPONENT I: THE BASELINE HOUSEHOLD SURVEY
The purpose of this technical component is to obtain reliable and valid representative baseline indicator
data through a household survey of 13 target counties, namely Akobo, Baliet, Budi, Duk, Jur River,
Kapoeta North, Leer, Manyendit, Panyijiar, Pibor, Ulang, Uror and Wau. The Mission and MESP designed
the baseline household survey to be implemented in two phases; Phase One in six selected “flood-
prone” counties (Akobo, Budi, Duk, Leer, Pibor and Uror); and, Phase Two in the seven remaining
counties (Baliet, Jur River, Kapoeta North, Manyendit, Panyijiar, Ulang and Wau).

MESP completed data collection and analysis for Phase One in September 2021 after interviewing 3,563
households, which represents 94 percent of the sample target. During the period under review, MESP
conducted household listing and data collection for Phase 2, covering the seven additional counties. In
total, 4,309 households were interviewed representing 98 percent of the sample target. Combined,
there were 7,872 households across 13 counties included in the baseline survey.

To expedite delivery of the final report, MSI STTA data analysts travelled to Juba in December to
support data analysis and preparations for a debrief and a final report. MESP delivered the final debrief
to the Mission on December 14 and submitted a final report on December 31. Any reactions from the
Mission on the survey findings will be addressed through the new MEL mechanism.

COMPONENT II: OHA COMMUNITY MONITORING
COMMUNITY MONITORING SYSTEM (CMS) PAUSE AND REFLECT

On November 29, MESP held a P&R workshop with OHA and PRO to review CMS performance,
identify bottlenecks, and generate recommendations for improved performance. Discussions focused on
the humanitarian landscape, current tools and outputs, trade offs and limitations, and opportunities for
improvement. Members observed that CMS is performing well because CMs are local residents with the
capability to access hard-to-reach areas, and because data collection tools are user-friendly. However,
the lack of CMS awareness among some Cooperating Partners (CPs), the vastness of some counties,
poor telephone network, and familiarity bias, could derail this ambitious initiative. Members

recommended a cultural shift toward the Data Utilization Tool among OHA, A/CORs, recruitment of
two additional specialists to cater for the health and protection sectors, deployment of data
transmission devices to improve internet accessibility, noting the CMS in all solicitations, and a follow-up
P&R in six months.

CONTEXT AND THEMATIC MONITORIN
MESP Community Monitors (CMs) continued to monitor contextual factors affecting implementation of
OHA activities in the field by collecting data on security, floods, and food commodity prices. The CMs
also collected data on service availability in BHA locations using the thematic monitoring tools. These
data were collected using Tablets and the analyses were displayed in the Data Visualization Tool.

DEVELOPMENT OF DATA COLLECTION TOOLS
On October 14, OHA revised their list of sectors from 13 to seven; and on November 1, MESP
submitted the seven draft sector monitoring tools of Agriculture, Economic Recovery and Market
Systems, Food Assistance, Health, Nutrition, Protection, and Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH).
The STTA Tools Development Experts drafted data analysis plans for each of the seven sectors. Work
on the finalization of the tools, including the pretest with IPs, will roll over into the MESP No Cost
Extension (NCE) next quarter (Annex 2).

COMPONENT III: BACKBONE COORDINATION SERVICES
After completing scoping Juba-level consultations with USAID IPs, MESP convened an IP Coordination
workshop with USAID and the selected IPs on November 9-10 to discuss possible coordination
mechanisms and develop a draft Coordination Charter - an agreement governing coordination between
IPs – a draft work plan to support coordination. The charter promulgates that through strategic
coordination, USAID IPs can achieve greater impact than any one partner can achieve alone. The charter
also represents a behavioral contract - a commitment to pursue thoughtful coordination in service of
beneficiaries to contribute to a more self-reliant South Sudan. On December 8, MESP shared the draft
charter with the IPs to invite their feedback/inputs and support institutionalizing it within their
programming. MESP also delivered two presentations on backbone coordination services to the
Mission’s Resilience Advisory Group (RAG).

COMPONENT IV: MEL SERVICES
BASELINES, INDICATORS AND TARGETS

DATA QUALITY ASSESSMENTS (DQAS)

On November 4, MESP conducted a virtual After-Action Review (AAR) for the FY2021 DQA with staff
from PRO, Office Directors, and A/CORs from the Technical Offices. Discussions focused on key
findings from the FY21 DQA, what went well, and recommendations for future DQA processes. In
retrospect, members commended the A/COR refresher training and IP orientation training, the
cooperation of IPs in scheduling DQA consultations, and the timely sharing of requested documentation
by IPs. However, members agreed to ensure DQA plans are prepared well in advance, to improve
communication with IPs when scheduling consultations, to encourage participation of A/CORs in the
consultations, to prioritize indicators reported across IPs, and to provide MEL training to IPs. MESP

submitted the final consolidated DQA report and individual IP reports on December 2 after addressing
USAID comments received on November 15.

REVIEW OF DATA COLLECTION AND REPORTING INSTRUMENTS

IEEES RADIO VERIFICATION TOOL

MESP continues to await ED’s guidance on the radio verification and utilization tool submitted on March
22. The tool was designed for in-person interviews with learners, teachers, and parents, assuming the
field monitors resumed field travel in February 2021 if schools reopened. It was expected that these
tools would be utilized in a verification assessment/Final Performance Evaluation of the IEEES activity.

TPM DATA VISUALIZATION TOOL

MESP continued work on the development of a TPM data visualization tool for USAID/South Sudan. The
tool is a technological advance toward enhancing the Mission’s capability to monitor and verify activities
implemented by its IPs. The tool will reduce lags in reporting by providing the Mission with access to
site visit reports as soon as they are uploaded into the Knowledge Management (KM) portal, thus
expediting decision-making on the TPM findings. Work on the development of the tool will continue in
FY2022 under the new MELS contract.

COLLECTING AND ANALYZING DATA

THIRD-PARTY MONITORING & VERIFICATION

MESP carried out TPM of 40 activity sites over the reporting period. These are presented in Table 1

In-person data collection was conducted in 40 BHA-supported interventions for OTP, TSFP, warehouse
management, community outreach, and food assistance in four counties of Ayod, Tonj North, Leer, and
Mayendit during this reporting period. Debrief notes were shared with OHA while debrief presentations
were delayed due to the CMS P&R that took place on November 29, and other obligations by the IPs.
Debrief presentations were delivered on December 13 and 16.

MESP monitored 12 nutrition sites, two schools, and three warehouses in four counties of Ayod, Tonj
North, Leer, and Mayendit (Table 2). Floods continued to devastate livelihoods and aggravate the
humanitarian crisis across the four counties. WFP and UNICEF continue to provide life-saving
humanitarian support through nutrition and food assistance interventions.

OTP and TSFP services are being provided in all the nutrition sites monitored. MUAC and edema are
the commonly used screening criteria, and cases are screened and admitted daily. Essential
anthropometric equipment was available in all the sites, although some data collection and reporting
instruments were missing. Meanwhile, nutrition staff received training in CMAM guidelines this year.

Therapeutic foods were available in most of the nutrition sites visited, although Mogok nutrition site in
Ayod county reported receiving 21 cartons of expired RUSF in March 2021. Health and nutrition
education is provided and IEC materials, drinking water, hand washing stations, and PPEs are available.
Meanwhile, Mogot and Panyang nutrition sites in Ayod county, and Payak and Leer town nutrition sites
in Leer have no pit latrines. All the nutrition sites monitored have CNVs and CNWs working 2 – 3 days
a week for a monthly incentive of USD36. However, MEDAIR CNWs in Leer get USD21 per week.

In Tonj North, 1,509 beneficiaries received food rations of sorghum, lentils, vegetable oil, and plumpy
doz for households with children below the age of 5 years through GFD. There were neither drinking
water nor pit latrines at the distribution site, although sheds were available to shelter breastfeeding
mothers. Food monitors, crowd controllers, and a complaints desk were present during the distribution.

Two schools with 956 learners were monitored for Food For Education (FFE) in Tonj North. Food was
prepared in big saucepans in clean and well-ventilated areas. Learners confirmed eating food regularly in
the five days prior to the TPM visit. Both schools have boreholes but the pit latrine at Ayakakat is full
and not in use.

Three warehouses were monitored in the four counties. All the warehouses are guarded 24/7 by Insight
Security Services and commodities are stacked on plastic pallets. FIFO, FEFO, LIFO and BUBD principles
are all adhered to when dispatching commodities. Records, including waybills are available, although
weighing scales and fire extinguishers were not available in Rubkuay. All the warehouses were inspected
by WFP.

There are tollfree lines in Tonj North although they are rarely used by beneficiaries. All the sites collect
feedback through verbal discussions between the CNVs and the beneficiaries. The sites are co-branded
with USAID logos, except the two schools in Tonj North.

COLLABORATING, LEARNING, AND ADAPTING
Throughout the reporting period, MESP held joint weekly progress review meetings with Policy Link to
enhance coordination and information sharing between the two platforms. MESP Backbone
Coordination staff attended two sense-making workshops in Jur River County from November 29 to
December 7, with a purpose to continue building momentum towards effective collaboration between
the citizens of Jur River and USAID IPs, by preparing communities for joint integrated planning. The
objectives of the Payam-level sense-making workshops were to kick-off a bottom-up approach to
evidence-informed resilience priority-setting and decision-making, with a review of the community
resilience mapping findings; to engage citizens in dialogue for voicing aspirations and document the
articulated resilience priorities, needs, and actions; and to select Payam representatives for the county-
wide workshop in January 2022.
