Evaluation and Development of Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute (JKCI) Strategic Plan

Brinelmor Consult played a key role in supporting the evaluation of the Strategic Plan for the Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute (JKCI), alongside contributing to the development of a new and improved strategic framework. The assignment was designed to ensure that the institution’s long-term vision and operational priorities are well aligned with national health policies and evolving healthcare needs in Tanzania.


The evaluation process involved a comprehensive review of the existing strategic plan, assessing its effectiveness in guiding institutional performance, service delivery, and resource utilization. This included stakeholder consultations, internal performance assessments, and benchmarking against national and international best practices in specialized healthcare management.


A major focus of the assignment was strengthening performance indicators to ensure they are measurable, realistic, and aligned with the institute’s core mandate of providing specialized cardiac care. The team also worked on enhancing institutional capacity by identifying gaps in planning, implementation, and reporting mechanisms.

In addition, the development of the new strategic framework emphasized the integration of a results-based Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system. This approach ensures that performance tracking is data-driven, transparent, and aligned with outcomes that directly impact patient care and service efficiency. The enhanced M&E framework is expected to improve accountability, support evidence-based decision-making, and facilitate continuous institutional learning.


The assignment further ensured that JKCI’s strategic direction supports national health priorities, including improving access to specialized healthcare services, strengthening health systems, and promoting sustainability in service delivery.


Overall, this initiative provides a solid foundation for the Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute to enhance its operational effectiveness, deliver high-quality cardiac services, and maintain its position as a leading center for specialized healthcare in the region.
