In year 2005, USAID and the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), created the Supply Chain Management System (SCMS) to procure and distribute essential medicines and supplies; provide technical assistance to transform existing supply chains; and collaborated with in-country and international partners to organize efforts.
The brand new US Global Health Initiative (GHI) initialized in 2010 sought to build on those efforts through strengthened platforms and systems. PEPFAR's five-year strategy, as contribution to the GHI, focused on transitioning the program from an emergency response to a sustainable, country-owned effort. The case describes the challenges moving forward in that state, the intricacies of its successful execution in Ethiopia, as well as the overall approach designed by SCMS.
