  4. Introduction • DPME has a budget of approximately R200m and approximately 200 staff • DPME therefore has to be strategic with its M&E work, to make best use of its resources • We have partnered with the Offices of the Premier for implementation of PME programmes, and have collaborated closely with National Treasury, DPSA and the Office of the Auditor General • We have been careful not to further overload departments and municipalities with reporting requirements, and as far as possible we draw on existing data and reports • All of our M&E programmes are implemented in such a way as to build the capacity of departments and municipalities to monitor and evaluate their own work, and to develop a culture of continuous improvement • In general, the results of our M&E programmes are made public • M&E has been part of the public service reform and modernisation process internationally for several decades, but more recently Performance M&E has been pursued in a number of countries, with an emphasis on using M&E to improve delivery and impacts on citizens

  7. National evaluation system • Deep assessments of the design, efficiency, effectiveness, implementation or impact of programmes, and for identification of improvements • National evaluation policy framework • Focus on evaluation of programmes related to strategic priorities through 3 year rolling national and provincial evaluation plans • 38 evaluations completed or underway, 8 completed, 6 more completing in the next month • 2 provinces and 3 departments have evaluation plans, working to extend this • Departments encouraged to undertake other evaluations, in addition to those in the national and provincial evaluation plans • Evaluations in national evaluation plan go to Cabinet • Evaluation reports also sent to the relevant Portfolio Committees in Parliament • Independent quality assessment • Departments must put in place improvement plans based on evaluations in National Evaluation Plan, monitored by DPME

  8. Monitoring management performance • Monitoring management practices in all national and provincial government departments (Management Performance Assessment Tool – MPAT) • Aim is to assist departments to improve the quality of their management practices • Joint initiative with Offices of the Premier • Standards developed collaboratively with policy departments and provinces • Standards based on legislation and regulations • Assessment against 31 management standards • Self assessment with moderation • Support offered to departments to develop and implement improvement plans to address key areas of weakness • Case studies of good practice developed and disseminated • Carried out annually, so far for 3 cycles, all national and provincial departments participated in last two cycles • Now starting to monitor at municipal level as well, using a similar tool (LGMIM)
