▪
The status is reported automatically, based on information entered to the Activity tracking sheet
▪
Initiative Dashboard provides 3 insights regarding each initiative at high level(e.g., 17 in education NKRA)
– “% of progress compared to TOTAL”: The percentage shows percentage of 3-feet activities completed as of today,
compared to ALL activities within that initiative (equals 100% only if initiative is completed)
– “% of progress compared to TODAY”: The percentage shows percentage of 3-feet activities completed as of today,
compared to activities that should have been completed as of today (equals 100% if on track)
– “STATUS TODAY”: Similar to previous information, reflects the status of implementation as of today, compared to plan.
An initiative can be marked as
▫ COMPLETED: If all activities are finalized
▫ ONGOING: If activities are on track, and there are still activities to be completed
▫ DELAYED: If any of the activities have either not started or not completed on time
▫ In future: If all activities are expected to be conducted in future according to the plan
▪
Sub-initiative Dashboard provides only STATUS info, as described above, at a more granular level of information (e.g., 86
sub-activities in education NKRA)

Second function of the sheet is to serve as the tracking tool for status of implementation at 3-feet level. The corresponding
columns that should be used for this purpose are
– Filled person
– Actual start date
– Action
– Actual end date
First 2 columns should be filled regularly, once the activities are started or completed. For this person, user should enter
date for start and end of the activity. If an activity has not started or finished, corresponding cell should be left as “-”. The
user who fills the information should record his/her info to the 3rd column. (Yellow cells) Last column gives the action
