Summary
Evaluation is the process of judging the value of a project. It uses different methods to gather and analyse data. Students learn about these methods and how to plan an evaluation.
Evaluation methods
Evaluation surveys use many methods. These methods complement each other. Triangulacy is the process of comparing data from different methods and sources. It ensures reliability and thorough data collection.
Planning an evaluation
Planning an evaluation starts with defining its objectives. The main objective is to research the quality of projects. This helps to improve them. Evaluation identifies strengths, weaknesses and problems.
Awarding the contract
The awarding entity can choose the procedure for awarding the contract. Negotiated procedures allow direct contact with tenderers. This helps to choose the best contractor. The approach of consulting companies differs from that of academic institutions.
Consulting companies and academic institutions
Consulting companies have experience and expertise. They can conduct evaluations quickly. Academic institutions offer high methodological knowledge. They are perceived as independent. A consortium of companies can divide detailed issues among members.
