The Greater Mekong Subregion Regional Investment Framework Implementation Plan, 2014-2018 (RIF-IP) identified a robust pipeline of 93 high-priority projects from among the more than 200 projects included in the Greater Mekong Subregion Regional Investment Framework, 2013-2022 (RIF). The total cost of the priority projects in the RIF-IP was estimated at $30.1 billion, or approximately $20 billion less than all of the projects included in the RIF. The 93 projects in the RIF-IP have been prioritized for their potential to attract support from development partners and the private sector.

The RIF-IP set forth the parameters for a resource mobilization campaign to address financing needs and establish a monitoring and evaluation system to track the status of individual projects and the RIF-IP as a whole.

In 2016, GMS Ministers endorsed a revised implementation plan, RIF-IP 2020.
