Annual Operational Plan (AOP)<br />

Annual Budget<br />

Annual Operational Plan (AOP) sets out annual detailed activities and technical operations <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Program broken down into components and cost category. This forms the basis for<br />

implementation <strong>of</strong> the Program activities and how funds will be utilised.<br />

The AOP is prepared in accordance to HSP2. It consists <strong>of</strong> different program activities <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Program that will be implemented for each year <strong>of</strong> the Program.<br />

Budget Program consists <strong>of</strong> detailed eligible expenditures that will be incurred in the program<br />

activities <strong>of</strong> the Program based on the Program Implementation Plan. This is prepared in<br />

accordance to the budget format and activity plan which specifies inputs such as personnel,<br />

activities and facilities for each year. The costs <strong>of</strong> the inputs are calculated and recorded on the<br />

Program Budget Drafting Form following these procedures:<br />

a- Calculate the cost <strong>of</strong> each input in US Dollar at current rate <strong>of</strong> exchange if the inputs<br />

envisaged are in a different currencies.<br />

b- Allocate the inputs from the worksheet to the appropriate budget lines in the program<br />

budget drafting form.<br />

<strong>of</strong> months and quarters should be calculated and the total reconciled with the<br />
