​​​​​​​This annex presents the implementation plan for the FINFI model, which was established based on the PDCA cycle. The PDCA cycle serves as a framework for addressing and solving problems. The plan creates a roadmap that will guide the country and the MSPS in the implementation of the FINFI model. The plan also contains key elements for the implementation of the model and is organized by management level, defining key actors and objectives for each level. ​​​​​​​
