A strategy for Payment by Results 1.1 DFID is increasingly making use of Payment by Results. As the number of programmes grows, DFID needs a consistent approach and a clear way forward. This strategy sets out our objectives for the use of Payment by Results and the actions we will take to achieve these. Section 1 outlines the background to Payment by Results: what DFID means by the term; why we use it; what we know already; and where the gaps in our knowledge lie. Section 2 sets out what DFID is already doing on Payment by Results, in terms of programmes and corporate systems of support. Section 3 establishes DFID’s objectives for Payment by Results and gives an overview of the actions we will take to achieve them.
