The Government of Uganda has intensified efforts to improve the quality, efficiency, and impact of public investments, recognizing that weaknesses in project execution rather than project identification alone remain a major constraint to achieving development outcomes. In line with this, Government is in the process of implementing the Public Investment and Asset Management for Growth and Resilience Operation (PIM Plus) for the period October 2025 to September 2031, a targeted intervention designed to strengthen implementation support, monitoring, and delivery of priority projects within the Public Investment Plan (PIP). PIM Plus complements the existing Public Investment Management framework by extending Government oversight beyond project appraisal and entry into the PIP, to focus on execution, problem-solving, and results delivery, in line with NDP IV and the broader public sector performance agenda.
