FP - CT PITT Template (Reinforcing Protection of the Kenya Border shared with Somalia).xlsx

This file is a Performance Indicator Tracking Table (PITT) template and instructions for implementing organizations to monitor and report progress on counterterrorism capacity-building projects funded by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Counterterrorism. The PITT is a required reporting tool that documents all indicator data and tracks progress over time, enabling implementers and CT to identify gaps, trends, and inconsistencies. Organizations must populate the template using their project's Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP), incorporating both output-level indicators (minimum two per outcome) and outcome-level indicators (minimum one per outcome), with at least three relevant CT indicators required across the project. The template requires organizations to establish initial baselines, set quarterly and final targets, report actual quarterly and final results, calculate percentage progress to completion, and provide comments explaining variances and any data limitations.

The instructions specify that PITTs must be updated quarterly with the latest indicator data and submitted as stand-alone spreadsheets or annexes within quarterly performance reports. For projects exceeding one year, additional columns must be added for quarterly targets and actuals. Organizations should disaggregate data by relevant categories such as geography or sex to create additional units of analysis. The template includes fields for Award/Agreement Number, Implementing Organization, Period of Performance dates, and project year/quarter information. Data review and analysis must occur quarterly during implementation, with notable successes or challenges documented in quarterly report narratives. This template applies specifically to the 15-month Kenya border security cooperative agreement focused on advancing counterterrorism capabilities within Kenya's Administrative Police Services tasked with securing the Somalia border.
