Abstract
Malaria Consortium supports delivery of seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) to children ages 3-59months using sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine plus amodiaquine. Lot quality assurance sampling (LQAS) was adapted as a cost-efficient method for end-of-cycle SMC monitoring surveys across supported countries and an implementation challenges reporting system was established in Nigeria. We present a case study of its application in Nasarawa State. LQAS facilitated timely local performance assessment across 16 indicators. Development of new reporting tools has played a key role in stimulating national-level discussions on improvements to SMC supervisory processes and implementer training and provided a framework for engagement with local stakeholders.
