The project is DoS‘ primary mechanism for strengthening data, technology, and HIS to support HIV activities. Data.FI aims to improve global, regional, and national in-depth analysis of HIV epidemiologic and programmatic data.

Such analyses can then be directly applied to expedite the achievement of PEPFAR targets. Data.FI's focus also includes direct support to host-country governments to enhance existing HIS, thereby informing management responses to well-defined gaps in HIV and AIDS programming and sustaining impact by supporting the transition of activities to local partners.

By the end of Data.FI, an advanced analytic approach for program implementation and scale-up will be institutionalized in PEPFAR countries and led by local organizations. HIV data systems will be supported by domestic investments and local capacity and be flexible to meet emerging decision-making needs critical to accelerating and sustaining epidemic control.
