Support Preparation of the State PIP

STDCs need to technically support STCs in preparing the annual activity plan as per the state strategy for Program Implementation Plan (PIP) preparation. This would include:

• Gap Analysis: The STDC need to undertake district wise gap assessment through  analysis of the existing data, observations from the supervisory visits and periodic evaluations, a district wise gap analysis need to be prepared. Gap analysis should highlight what are the major program gaps in terns of infrastructure, equipment, HR, activities and funds in each district. 
• Identification of priority activities: Based on gap analysis, STDCs need to help the districts and state to identify the activities to be included on priority in the PIP of the respective district and state level. 
• Capacity building and mentoring of District: STDCs should support the district TB Officer to prepare the PIPs of their respective districts including the micro-plan for each activity with number of beneficiaries and expected outcomes with proper justification. This may be done in a workshop mode before the preparation of the state PIP. 

Medical Officer (SM&E) will be the nodal person responsible for the activity under the overall guidance of the Director STDC and STO.
