End of Project Evaluation

1. Key Deliverables, Tentative Timeline and estimated Expert Days

Detailed methodology and data collection methods should be included in the technical proposal, which will be further defined and fine-tuned during the evaluation´s inception phase.

The following are the evaluation deliverables the evaluator will deliver to ACF:

1. Inception Report: TheThe report will outline the evaluation design, methods, tools, samples of questionnaires, and detailed work plan for the entire exercise. Draft questionnaires, interview guides and other data collection tools must be included. As part of the inception report, the consultant must provide a data analysis plan showing the questions and analysis for each of the three objectives. The Inception Report must also outline potential risks and mitigation strategies as well as ethical protocols for working with vulnerable groups. The inception report, incl. methods and tools will have to be approved by ACF and will be reviewed during an inception meeting before data collection starts.
2. Draft Evaluation Report: The draft report should mirror the final version of the evaluation report depicting raw information collected during the data collection exercise. Essentially the draft report will outline the evaluation methodology, analysis, disaggregated findings, lessons learned and recommendations and includes an executive summary as well as limitations and constraints encountered during data collection and analysis. The draft report will be reviewed by ACF to ensure its accuracy, clarity, and alignment with established evaluation TOR (incl. scope of work and objectives). The resulting comments will be provided to the consultant in written form within the agreed timeline in a Validation Meeting. The comments will enable improvement of the final report.
3. Final Evaluation Report: The final evaluation report should address the topics raised in this ToR and correspond to the three evaluation objectives set out above. The report therefore outlines the evaluation methodology, analysis, disaggregated findings, lessons learned and recommendations and includes an executive summary as well as limitations and constraints encountered during data collection and analysis. For better illustration, infographics should also be included. Annexes should include data collection tools, raw data summary, and stakeholder lists. After submission of final report ACF will do a final review for any loose ends and any upcoming comments will be consolidated and submitted to the consolidation for finalisation within agreed timeline.
4. Furthermore, a Summary Fact Sheet (2 pages) must be submitted together with the final report. The fact sheet should include an executive summary of key findings, major recommendations, and one or two infographics for visual clarity.
