Key elements inOIMES/RBM are the “in-country self-evaluation” of the past Facilitysupport, the lessons learned workshop to discuss the new direction ofthe nfp process in the country, and the nfp-update which has the nfpmatrixas an important element. The latter shows in a quantitativeway how vibrant the nfp process is. The matrix is in fact a gapanalysis and shows the areas where Facility support is needed (nowand in the future) to improve the nfp process. The criteria of thematrix on which action will be undertaken (through a Letter ofAgreement) will be clearly shown as an annex to the contract. Whenthe work of the stakeholder is over, the NMSC will judge if the scoreson these particular indicators have been changed.45
