Evaluation and Performance Measurement

Evaluation and performance measurement are important tools of Canadian federal government managers. These functions help managers in determining whether everything is working effectively toward achieving intended results.

We have worked in these areas for the past 40 years, since the practices were formally introduced in the Canadian federal government.  We have worked in all aspects of these disciplines, from developing logic models and performance indicators, to conducting large-scale horizontal evaluation analyses.

We have worked with:

  • Lead and lag performance indicators
  • Qualitative and quantitative methods of data analysis
  • A full range of information and collection methodologies, from focus groups to internet-based surveys

Our recent work has involved developing risk-based frameworks for evaluating an entire organization’s suite of programming and activities.

We have also conducted Neutral Assessments of many departmental Evaluation functions.
