RESPONSIBLE DIVISION

Internal WFP division is responsible for the indicator

MR OUTPUT

Management result output to which the KPI is directly related

PURPOSE

CALCULATION FORMULA

Mathematical expression defining how the KPI value is derived

CALCULATION STEPS

Description of the formula or sequence of operations with detailed instructions to calculate the indicator

DATA SOURCE

Primary system(s), dataset(s), or repository(ies) from which KPI data are obtained

DATA COLLECTION METHOD

Process by which data are captured, compiled, and extracted from the data source

It indicates whether the calculation, aggregation, and reporting of the KPI can be executed automatically by an information system without requiring manual data manipulation. Possible values for this field are": “Automated“, “Partially Automated“ or “N/A“

BASELINE VALUE

Reference value against which future performance is measured

ASSUMPTIONS

Assumptions are the external conditions, outside of the KPI owner's direct control that must hold true for the KPI to be valid, meaningful, and accurately interpretable, and for progress toward the KPI’s intended target to be measured

LIMITATIONS

Known constraints affecting data quality, coverage, comparability, or interpretation

Boolean field type (True/False). This field indicates whether the KPI is recognized as a UN Common (either coming from UN common framework or identical to a KPI from at least one another UN entity) or UN Complementary (closely aligned to other existing UN indicators)

IS THE KPI A UN COMMON OR COMPLEMENTARY INDICATOR

This field indicates if the KPI is Common or Complementary

CONTRIBUTING AGENCIES

This field identifies which UN agencies also use the same KPI (UN Common) or use a closely aligned version of the KPI (UN Complementary). It specifies the organizations with which the indicator is harmonized or coordinated, supporting transparency on inter‑agency alignment

POINT OF CONTACT
