A tool to set measurable goals for horizontal scale up and track tangible end results.

Before scale up, it is important to agree upon the desired end results: how many sites is it reasonable to add? How many people will you reach? In what time frame? Where will new sites be? These are horizontal scale-up considerations. Setting achievable scale-up results for reaching more people and tracking your progress will help your action plan succeed.

You should now have

  • Agreed-upon horizontal scale-up results
  • Quantifiable indicators to track that the results will be met
  • A timeframe for achievement with benchmarks (targets) to meet along the way
  • A tracking sheet
