(formerly Annual Report)

The Operational Plan is USAID's primary document for assessing program performance and making plans for future activities. Each Agency Operating Unit (OU) submits an Annual Report to USAID/ Washington detailing its acitivities and making a funding request. The Operational Plans presented on this page represent a subset of the data included in the full Annual Report.

To begin, select a USAID Operating Unit from the menu below.
NOTE: The FY 2006 Operational Plan database application will open in a new window -- if you are using a pop-up blocker with your browser, be sure to disable it.

Each operational plan contains the following information:

  1. a Program Performance Summary: a narrative overview of the OU's performance in FY05.

  2. a Results Framework: a table that shows the strategic objectives (SOs) and intermediate results (IRs) implemented by the OU; gives a top level picture of USAID's strategy and activities.

  3. for each SO, information on planned activities for FY 06 and 07 , by program component.

The site also provides a link to a downloadable pdf version of each plan and a link to USAID's Congressional Budget Justification fact sheet for each OU.
