DGIS - Akvo PPP (2014-2017) Report 2014 1 April - 31 December 2014 Programme summary Contacts: Account holder DGIS: Dick van Ginhoven Account holder Akvo: Jeroen van der Sommen Total budget: 2,820,000 Phase 3 of the DGIS and Akvo partnership builds on the momentum that Akvo has achieved in reporting and monitoring progress directly from the field using the internet and mobile phones. This new phase will demonstrate paperless reporting and monitoring at scale in target countries, delivering systems that will be less burdensome, less costly, more transparent, more open and more efficient. Map shows PPP target countries and additional countries where activities are taking place. Executive summary Highlights Global MOU s with SNV and ICCO were signed and work began on setting up an MOU with Welthungerhilfe. In Africa, we are implementing nation-wide WASH mapping exercises in Benin and Nigeria, and in Ethiopia, the entire National WASH Inventory was transferred using Akvo FLOW. We have started working with several other governments, with good opportunities to scale operations (Guinée, Mauritanie, Ivory Coast and Mali). In Kenya, the Dutch Embassy published all its (37) projects online in Akvo RSR. In Asia, we have seen a growth in monitoring of WASH services. In Indonesia, Cardno mapped over 200,000 households with Akvo FLOW, the largest FLOW excercise so far. We also expanded our operations to the Pacific region. We worked with DGIS on the Opencasting tool and a first format paperless reporting. 900k Variations from plan Due to Ebola, we postponed activities in Liberia. Instead, efforts have been focused on a nationwide mapping of water points with the Federal Ministry of Water Resources in Nigeria. In 2014, we built on some good opportunities in the Pacific. This is an entirely new region for Akvo and mobile monitoring had not been practiced there before. Some of our 2014 activities reflect our efforts to explore the wider context of water and sanitation. We expanded our activities into sectors related to water such as food security and health. Financial overview Akvo worked extensively on partnership development. This resulted in more signed partnerships than targetted, but also meant we exceeded our partnership development budget in some regions. 800k 700k 600k 500k 400k 300k 200k 100k 0 225k 110k 45k 80k 90k 85k 85k 125k 35k Budget 187.9k 171.9k 45.7k 40k 68.1k 106.1k 46.9k 135.4k Realisation Product development hip development Dutch water sector support East Africa South Asia South East Asia West Africa Communication and events Contingency In 2014 we set up the Akvo South East Asia hub in Singapore and Indonesia. As Akvo is fairly new in this region, a lot of time was spent on building new partnerships, which resulted in exceeding the regional budget. We are still within budget in East and West Africa. These regions also focussed on new partnerships resulting in signed contracts for nationwide mapping exercises using Akvo FLOW. We were still investigating opportunities for end-user feedback systems during 2014, therefore only a small part of this budget has so far been used.

Explanation of progress measurement The progress circle percentage is based on the actual delivered value for 2014 compared to the programme target for 2017. The programme lenght for PPP is three years. End 2014 we are nearly at one third of the programme. Therefore, when we reach 30% or more progress end 2014, we mark this with a green light as being fully on track. End 2015 we are nearly at two third of the programme. Therefore, when we reach 60% or more progress end 2015, we mark this as being fully on track. For 2016-2017 this needs to be 90% or over to be marked green as being on track. The traffic light interpretation is as follows: Fully on track Needs attention Not started yet, or delayed 2014 30% - 100% 10% - 29% 0% - 9% 2015 60% - 100% 30% - 59% 0% - 29% 2016-2017 90% - 100% 70% - 89% 0% - 69%
Product development: Akvopedia The open access online knowledge platform Akvopedia will be further developed and extended.

Product development: Akvo RSR Akvo RSR (Really Simple Reporting) is a web-based content management system that makes it easy for teams working in development aid to bring projects and programmes online and share progress with everyone involved and interested. We will further develop and enhance RSR and integrate it with other Akvo products in order to create an online reporting tool that will eventually replace paper-based reporting.

RSR-IATI import and export feature available 3 prototype prototype available available A prototype of the IATI export (based on IATI v1.03) was created beginning 2014, making manual IATI exports from RSR possible.

Product development: Product integration PPP Phase 3 aims to enhance and refine the Akvo core products during 2014-2017. Akvopedia, Akvo RSR, Akvo FLOW and Akvo Openaid will be further developed, extended with new features and adapted to become fully IATI compliant. They will be integrated so data can interchange openly between them, providing a framework for paperless reporting. Netherlands Integration between Akvo products.

Result 2 Integration to Akvo products (availability API s) Number of APIs (read and write) available 75 % 3 3 4 4 The RSR read API, RSR write API, and FLOW read API are available.
End-user feedback systems Maintaining pump functionality is key to the success of water supply projects. User feedback is a collaborative effort involving all stakeholders. PPP Phase 3 will focus on integrating SMS services with the Akvo FLOW database on pump and well characteristics to enable user feedback to be collected via text. This will be piloted within existing programmes. Uganda Organisations can use Akvo FLOW to enable feedback loops. Number of end-user feedback pilots 33 % 1 0 2 3 In 2014 we were still investigating opportunities for end-user feedback systems. A pilot in Uganda for the Cida Grand Challenge was done, where local beneficiaries use mobal technologies to provide real-time feedback via SMS and Akvo FLOW. Integration of such systems is further investigated.
Opencasting Akvo is working with DGIS and long-time collaborators Zimmerman & Zimmerman to develop Akvo Opencast. This is a web-based tool that allows organisations to combine and curate open data collections published in Akvo RSR and the IATI (International Aid Transparency Initiative) standard, to make powerful, visual stories and share them via public display screens in order to engage with specific audiences. Zimmerman & Zimmerman Netherlands, Kenya, Benin, Mali, Bangladesh, Indonesia Development of opencasting tool.
