There are two components to the project. The first component of the project is provision of essential health commodities. This component will finance the procurement of much-needed selected essential commodities to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS (ARVs (anti-retrovirals) and diagnostic test kits), malaria (Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs), TB (drugs and reagents), and promote reproductive (contraceptives) and child health (vaccines). The first component of the project is strengthening supply chain management. This component will help to strengthen the distribution system between the central, provincial, and district warehouses. It will finance: (i) trucks to deliver commodities from the provincial warehouses to the district warehouses; (ii) technical assistance to prepare and implement fleet management plans; and (iii) distribution costs from the port to the district warehouses. The component will also support the computerization of the logistics management system in 70 districts by financing computer hardware. Project management costs will also be financed including operating costs and consultant services for the audit.
