Step 4. Monitoring
Performance, Evaluation
and Recognition
Monitoring Performance is the systematic collection and analysis of
information as the PPS progresses. It:
Activity
• Aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the PPS.
• Is based on targets set, and activities planned, during the planning
phase.
• Keeps the work on track and provides indications when things are going
wrong or could be working better
• Determines whether the resources available are sufficient and are being
well used, whether the capacity is sufficient and appropriate, and whether
everyone is doing what they planned to do.
• Provides a useful base for evaluation.
Evaluation is crucial for assessing the effect the strategy has had within
the local community, its cost effectiveness, whether it has achieved what is
expected and identified opportunities for continuous improvement.
Discuss:
• How much of a team’s budget
should be given over to
evaluation
• Is it better to have an insider or
an outsider do the evaluation
• What evaluation methods/tools
are required to ensure evidence
of progress is available
• What baseline data is required
Is quantitative data enough
• Who can monitor the progress of
PPS initiatives
• What “tools” are needed to
monitor progress
• What can the PPS team do when
one programme, project or
system is not reporting progress
