The Plan Vivo system is a set of standards, processes and tools used to develop and register payments for ecosystem services (PES) projects in developing countries. Project activities include afforestation and agroforestry, forest conservation, restoration and avoided deforestation, and are implemented by small-holders or communities on their own land, or land where they have user rights.

BR&D is responsible for development and maintenance of the Plan Vivo system and "contracts" ECCM to provide the systems maintenance resources needed for the continued development of Plan Vivo.
