Overview
Simprints’ mission is to transform the way the world fights poverty. We build technology to radically increase transparency and effectiveness in global development, making sure that every vaccine, every dollar, every public good reaches the people who need them most. We provide accurate, affordable, and secure identification tools to help NGOs, businesses, and governments deliver essential services to their most vulnerable populations. Backed by the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation, the Gates Foundation, USAID, FCDO, Gavi, and more, we partner with organisations such as the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health, BRAC, Terra Firma, Dimagi, and D-Tree to achieve our mission. Having reached over 1.2 million beneficiaries, we are contracted to double that number in the coming two years through our projects in Asia and sub-saharan Africa

The model is described in terms of past values and therefore we would like to estimate the coefficients

Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) Process
ARIMA modeling methods were used in this study based on a common method available for modeling and forecasting the time series data. ARIMA is the most common class of time series models which can be made “stationary” by differencing (if necessary), possibly in combination with non-linear transformations such as logging or deflating (if necessary)

Fair adherence: those who missed 5–10% of their ART doses.
Good adherence: those who missed less than 5% of their ART doses.
