Summary of Engagement
The Public Strategies Group performed the year one monitoring
and evaluation of the USAID funded Democratic Governance and Local Administration (DGLA) Project in Warsaw, Poland. DGLA was established as a performance contract which was to produce increased competence in Polish local governance. The purpose of PSG's involvement was to determine the direction and nature of changes and to interpret those results as they contribute to the Life of Activity Contribution to Target, the USAID target itself, and ultimately the USAID Intermediate Result. PSG interviewed key staff, Polish government officials, and USAID staff to develop qualitative data. PSG then led a Polish resident team in measurement and data collection. Finally , not only was the second year summary report produced with recommendations for new measurement, but an analysis of the use of a performance contract was completed.
Results Achieved
- Second year monitoring and evaluation report produced
- DAI project manager received information necessary to make
program changes and to redesign performance indicators
- Recommendations on the use of performance contracts
Type of service

designed the second year evaluation strategy, collected interview
data, lead a small team of Polish professionals in measurement
and data collection, and analyzed the results in presentation
to the project manager.
