Completing the IMS Survey
Last updated
Last updated
The IMS is organized into 4 different sections, collecting information on:
RCO & UNCT Composition (rolling basis)
CF Overview in the CF/UNDAF plan (rolling basis, previously managed in the IMS Monthly survey)
Programmatic and Coordination Areas (annually)
Normative Areas (human rights and youth, gender and disability scorecards) (annually)
DEADLINES: The deadline to fill out the annual IMS questionnaire is 30 November, as in previous years. However, the deadline to fill out the normative questionnaire is extended until 31 December, given the wealth of data to be gathered for the human rights, gender, disability and youth scorecards. After each deadline the correspondent survey will be closed for data validation and reporting building.
For the 2024 annual survey, please refer to the latest FAQ document
Follow the steps below to complete the IMS survey in your workspace. Depending on your user access, you may not see some of the buttons shown in the screenshot below.
Step 1 – Click the Open Survey button to open up the survey plan.
Step 2 – You may then click on any of the steps to fill in the survey and provide all the information required.
Step 3 – To save the section of the survey you are on, you can either click "Save as draft" and complete it at a later time, or you can click "Save" once you've completed the section. "Save as Draft" allows you to partially complete the form and save it, whilst "Save" requires all mandatory fields to be filled in.
Step 4 – When all the sections have been completed and saved in the survey, the sections will be marked with a tick in the navigation bar, and you can then click on Submit survey for review button. Please note that only the Team Leader (with Administrator rights) has the ability to submit the final survey.
You can utilize the "Add comment" button to leave comments on the survey and for specific forms. The comments feature allows you to select who to notify (they will get an email). It also has a threading feature that allows replies to specific comments, and for the original comment to be marked as resolved.
