This document presents the approach the IEU proposes using to assess the performance of the Simplified Approval Process (SAP) Pilot Scheme. The SAP Pilot was approved in Decision B.18/06 (October 2017) with the objective to introduce simplifications (based on best practices) to the GCF project cycle for a particular set of projects: less than $10 million of GCF contribution, low to minimum environmental and social risks and proposals that are ready to be scaled up.
