Spanish term or phrase: al cumplimiento de la meta
Estimados colegas,

Adjunto un extracto de un documento que estoy traduciendo:

Actualmente el programa [de salud comunitaria] no cuenta con metas comprometidas, considerando que este a se encuentra en proceso de Línea Base y este primer reporte de gestión informa a nivel de actividades implementadas, las cuales van contribuyendo en la jerarquía de objetivos al cumplimiento de la meta del programa durante su primera fase de implementación.

Al respecto:

...this first management report is reporting at implemented activities level which contribute/help to the hierarchy of the objectives in achieving the programme goal ...

Mi consulta es porque la parte que dice van contribuyendo en la jerarquía de objetivos 'al cumplimiento de la meta' un poco confuso, no?

Sugerencias al respecto?

the achievement of the (ultimate) goal / aim of the program
Explanation:
The achievement of the (ultimate) goal / aim of the program

Here, “intermediate or short term objectives are different from the end result with is the goal or aim of the program (in this example, there is no mention of outcomes)
http://www.cdc.gov/getsmart/program-planner/downloads/Manual...

Defining the Terms:
- Goals are the primary aims of your program. They should reflect what you want your program to achieve. A goal tends to be more general than an objective. Example: All newborns in the state will receive hepatitis B vaccine before hospital discharge.
- Objectives lay out the steps you will take to reach your goals, as well as the intended outcomes of a program. Objectives are more specific than goals and are frequently written in the “SMART” format. SMART refers to an acronym built around five attributes of well-written objectives: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely.
--- Specific: Objectives should reflect explicit, desired accomplishments. Ask the question, “What exactly are we going to do, and with or for whom?”
--- Measurable: Tracking whether or not an objective is achieved can only be accomplished when it meets a specific, observable, or countable outcome. Ask the questions, “Is it measurable, can WE measure it, and how?”
--- Achievable: Objectives should be written to reflect attainable results. Ask the question, “Can we get to the desired results?”
--- Realistic: Objectives should be executable and achievable given the planning period and resources. Ask the question, “Can we get it done in the proposed timeframe with our existing resources and context?”
--- Timely: Objectives should be executable and achievable given the planning period and resources. Ask the question, “Can we get it done in the proposed timeframe with our existing resources and context?”

progress report


Explanation:
I think "progress report" is more accurate in this context.

This first progress report outlines the activities performed during the first phase of implementation within the hieriarchy of goals.
