Rationale
Monitoring and evaluation are critical success factors in project execution but Result based monitoring and evaluation) is a powerful tool used to track the progress and impact of a given programme or project. Monitoring involves the assessment of progress of a programme or project in comparison with stated goal. Its objective is to detect deviations from declared intentions. Evaluation however is carried out to ascertain the extent to which objectives and targets were achieved. It is directed toward ensuring that desired outcomes are achieved. Result-based monitoring and evaluation has moved beyond traditional monitoring and evaluation, which places emphasis on inputs and outputs, to a greater focus on outcomes and impact. NGOs, CSOs, FBOs, NPOs, CBOs, Governments or Private organizations may successfully implement programmes but may not achieve intended results. The Results Based Monitoring and Evaluation approach presents a detailed description of the measurement, analysis and report needed to assess implementation and impact of a project.
