Monitoring & Evaluation
Each of the tasks will be carefully monitored and evaluated on progress of set targets. Management reports will be a key tool for measuring the progress and the reporting will always cover activity, persons in charge, progress, variances, reasons for variation if any, proposals on how the issues can be addressed and lessons/best practices.
The following Strategic and Annual Action Plans will comprise the periodic examination of the inputs, outputs and outcomes of Strategic Goals. It is purposed to enable PAM Rwanda assess achievements, changes and shortfalls and give direction for the improvements.
Results from such assessments and analyses will be produced periodically and disseminated and shared through public presentations and PAM website to keep stakeholders actively informed and involved. Each PAM commission/unit will produce an annual work plan that translates the Strategic Goals into operational activities, expected results, schedules and persons responsible.
Each year, implementation monitoring data will be collected, analyzed and reported to enrich the annual reports. These monitoring and reporting exercises will be internal. Two independent evaluation actions will be conducted throughout the duration of the strategic plan implementation process:
1) A mid-term evaluation in mid-2023 and
2) A summative evaluation in mid-2024.
The mid-term evaluation will measure the level and quality of results, interventions in financial management, the quality of the monitoring and of its implementation. It will highlight changes in the general context and judge whether the strategic goals remain relevant.
The final evaluation will give a measure of the entire Strategic Plan performance. It will account for the use of resources and will report on the effectiveness and efficiency of interventions and the extent to which expected outcomes were achieved.
The primary evaluative and research questions will revolve around: Relevance; Effectiveness; Efficiency; Sustainability.
