ITT PDZ Project Evaluation and Summative Assessment

ERDF funded projects are contractually required to produce an evaluation in the form of a “Summative Assessment” at least three months prior to the final grant claim to demonstrate how the project has performed against its stated objectives, outputs and outcomes. A summative assessment plan is also required within the first three to six months of the grant funding agreement being signed; this has been prepared.The successful supplier will be required to deliver, within the guidance and timescales referred to elsewhere in the ITT:• A review of the prepared summative assessment plan (M&E Plan Appendix 2), to incorporate data monitoring requirements and/or recommendations• A summative assessment delivery plan. This should include a table outlining planned tasks and activity timeframes to enable completion of the Draft report by 31st March 2023, and Final report by 31st May 2023.• A summative assessment draft and final reports in accordance with the project timescales; final report to include A final project report and executive summary with a table outlining programme delivery against outputs and outcomes, key findings, lessons learned and implications for programme legacy.All the necessary information and documents will be made available to the successful supplier on award; the logic model is at Appendix 3.

The successful supplier will be expected to consult with the project team and with stakeholders / beneficiaries as appropriate, and also to undertake any research that may be relevant and appropriate.
