Abstract
The study aimed at determining the effect of stakeholder capacity building on performance of the ARV supply chain system by NASCOP in Kenya. A combination of descriptive and explanatory research designs was employed in studying a target group comprising 541 pharmacists and pharmaceutical technologists across Kenya. From these, 229 pharmacists and pharmaceutical technologists were selected by use of stratified proportional sampling. An electronic questionnaire was used to collect primary data that was then analyzed using descriptive statistics such as percentage, means, and standard deviation to draw insightful findings. To test the relationship and magnitude of relation between the variables, inferential statistics including correlation was used. The study realized that stakeholder capacity building is important at p=0.000 determined at 0.01 significance level. Of note was that capacity building correlated with project performance at 0.711. The study, therefore, recommended that NASCOP management should prioritize strengthening the capacity of the pharmacy stakeholders in the ART facilities countrywide. In particular, they should provide regular training on DHIS2, strengthen ARV records/ documentation and inventory management, and can conduct periodic supervision initiatives to track and assess the progress of ARV management in the pharmacies and stores across Kenya.
