WHY DO YOU WANT AN EVALUATION PLAN?
Just as using a roadmap facilitates progress on a long journey, an evaluation plan can
clarify what direction your evaluation should take based on priorities, resources, time, and
skills needed to accomplish the evaluation. The process of developing an evaluation plan
in cooperation with an evaluation workgroup of stakeholders will foster collaboration and
a sense of shared purpose. Having a written evaluation plan will foster transparency and
ensure that stakeholders are on the same page with regards to the purpose, use, and users
of the evaluation results. Moreover, use of evaluation results is not something that can be
hoped or wished for but must be planned, directed, and intentional (Patton, 2008). A written
plan is one of your most effective tools in your evaluation tool box.
A written evaluation plan can—
create a shared understanding of the purpose(s), use, and users of the evaluation
results, Change Project Evaluation Plan

and established stakeholder and decision maker information needs,
help to identify whether there are sufficient program resources and time to
accomplish desired evaluation activities and answer prioritized evaluation questions,
assist in facilitating a smoother transition when there is staff turnover,
facilitate evaluation capacity building among partners and stakeholders, Change Project Evaluation Plan
