Evaluation Proposal - Fatima PPP
- This
proposal
will
explain
the
rationale
for all
aspects of
the
research
design...
- In defing evaluation: Weiss (1998) "Evaluation is the
systematic assessment of the operation or outcomes
of a program or policy, compared to a set of explicit
or implict standards, as a means of contributing to
the improvement of the programme or policy.
- the goal of this evaluation....should inform better decison making
- the type of evaluation /
outcome...results, impacts and effect
- Evaluation organised into 6 stages
- Stage 1:Understanding the project.
What is programme trying to
address?Systematic review of field &
Familiarization of project = General
reports; Evidence and Research on
PPP in Ire. & U.K.; Study of any
previous evaluation reports and
revisit any staff interviews of similar
programmes. Informal interviews with
the three main stakeholders will be
undertaken: The Council / Developer &
residents both public and privite. A
full literature, policy & practice review
will be undertaken at this stage. This
will be an informal observation of the
PPP.
- Stage 2: Formulating research questions. These
questions will inform overall goal of expalining outcomes.
These qustions will be well framed, manageable and
relevent. Ethics - We maintain the highest standards in
relation to honesty, confidentiality and reciprocity
relating to all aspects of evaluation process.
- Stage 3: Choosing a Research Design. This
evaluation research will chose a Quantative
Participatory Evaluation Design. This
involves our company and all stakeholders
contributing by the sharing of all project
knowledge. This will enable our company
and the stakeholders to reflect on the
meanings discovered in working on a PPP
project, ensuring that this research is an
educational rather than a judgemental
process. This approach means that
stakeholders are contributoring their own
real life knowledge of the project and you
are not just hearing academic views. any
percieved power imbalances or potential
bias will be overcome.
- Stage 4: Selecting Research Methods. The
following methods will be used: 1. Informal
interviews will be held first with senior
management in Council and Development
organisations at the 1st stage. Informal
interviews with both social and private residents
will also be undertaken. 2. Project records and
the re-use of management data will be identified
to research key financials and client data. 3.
Mid-way through project - a written anonymous
questionaire will be sent to all residents and key
staff in the PPP project to enable a quantative
study to deliver statistical analysis on the
outcomes of the PPP project. Also mid-way:
formal interviews will be undertaken using a
systematic random sampling plan to gain factual
information using a list of specific questions 4.
Finally, secondary data will be used such as:
other local surveys, developmental plans and
public financail records for the area.
- Stage 5: Timeframe for
implementation. The timeframe for this
evaluation will be: A. Initial scoping work:
1 month; B. Fieldwork/ data gathering: 2
months; C. Write up: 3 months; D. Report
finalisation: 1 month.
- Stage 6: Communicating Findings. We will agree on the structure of the write up. Either Scientific or Thematic:
- Scientific: 1. Intro.
2. Reseach Methods
3. Literature Review
4. Description of
Data 5. Data
Analysis 6.
Conclusion
- Thematic: 1. Intro.
2. Reasearch
Methods 3.
Literature Review
4. 3 - 5 Thematic
chapters
examining a
different aspect of
service 5.
Conclusions/
Recommendations
- Scientific: 1. Intro.
2. Reseach Methods
3. Literature Review
4. Description of
Data 5. Data
Analysis 6.
Conclusion
- Stage 6: Communicating Findings. We will agree on the structure of the write up. Either Scientific or Thematic:

evaluation will be: A. Initial scoping work:
1 month; B. Fieldwork/ data gathering: 2

finalisation: 1 month.
- Concerns of using Participatory Design: 1. Are all stakeholders rep.
of age, class & gender? 2. Staff of coucil and developer may not
wish to spaeak up?
- Stage 4: Selecting Research Methods. The
following methods will be used: 1. Informal
interviews will be held first with senior
management in Council and Development
organisations at the 1st stage. Informal

systematic random sampling plan to gain factual

Finally, secondary data will be used such as:
other local surveys, developmental plans and
public financail records for the area.
- Questions: 1. Did the project meet the needs of a. Council b. Developer c.
Residents? 2. Was the PPP on time and on budget? 3. Has residualisation been
addressed in Fatima? 4. What could have been done differebtly to complete
project more effectively? 5. Is the project providing the planned services? 6. Did
the project meet the needs that led to this project?
- Stage 3: Choosing a Research Design. This
evaluation research will chose a Quantative
Participatory Evaluation Design. This

- What is programme trying to
acheive? Identify offical goals.
What assumptions link inputs to
outcomes?
- Stage 2: Formulating research questions. These
questions will inform overall goal of expalining outcomes.
These qustions will be well framed, manageable and
relevent. Ethics - We maintain the highest standards in
relation to honesty, confidentiality and reciprocity
