4. Monitoring And Evaluation Systems

 

For departments to be able to report intelligently and systematically on performance instead of just on their activities, supporting monitoring and evaluation systems and information systems are a prerequisite. The following steps will be necessary:

The clarification of goals in strategic and operational plans.
The development of performance indicators and targets for all programmes.
The adaptation or development of information systems to capture appropriate performance data.
The introduction of a regular evaluation programme in respect of all major programmes.
The integration of the various planning and evaluation processes of Government so that the information flow through the system is well coordinated.
