Ten Steps to a Results-Based Monitoring and Evaluation System: A Handbook for Development Practitioners
Jody Zall Kusek , and Ray C. Rist Manufacturer: World Bank Publications ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0821358235 |
Book Description
An effective state is essential to achieving socio-economic and sustainable development. With the advent of globalization, there are growing pressures on governments and organizations around the world to be more responsive to the demands of internal and external stakeholders for good governance, accountability and transparency, greater development effectiveness, and delivery of tangible results. Governments, parliaments, citizens, the private sector, NGOs, civil society, international organizations and donors are among the stakeholders interested in better performance. As demands for greater accountability and real results have increased, there is an attendant need for enhanced results-based monitoring and evaluation of policies, programs, and projects.This Handbook provides a comprehensive ten-step model that will help guide development practitioners through the process of designing and building a results-based monitoring and evaluation system. These steps begin with a "Readiness Assessment" and take the practitioner through the design, management, and importantly, the sustainability of such systems. The Handbook describes each step in detail, the tasks needed to complete each one, and the tools available to help along the way.

The African Manufacturing Firm: An Analysis Based on Firms in Sub-Saharan Africa (Routledge Studies in Development Economics, 31)
Ata Mazaheri Manufacturer: Routledge ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0415298865 |
Book Description
The African manufacturing sector continues to face many problems as it struggles to progress from its presently underdeveloped state. If the countries that make up Africa are ever to raise the living standards of the vast majority of its population to a more acceptable level, then the economic growth that would result from an enlarged and improved manufacturing sector may hold an important key.
The book provides a useful source of greater understanding of African manufacturing Firms and the perplexing lack of widespread industrial growth during the post-colonial decades.
Any reader wanting to understand the economic problems of Africa will need to read this book, and any student, academic or policy-maker working in the areas of development and industrial economics will find it to be a most useful

Cycle Time Management: The Fast Track to Time-Based Productivity Improvement (Manufacturing & Production)
Patrick Northey , and Nigel Southway Manufacturer: Productivity Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items: ASIN: 1563270153 |
Book Description
As much as 90 percent of the operational activities in a traditional plant are often nonessential or pure waste. Cycle Time Management gives you an exact methodology for eliminating most, if not all, of this waste within 24 to 30 months. Written by the developers of Cycle Time Management(CTM), this book gives you the means to measure productivity in terms of time instead of revenue or people.
By reducing cycle time, the time from initial product concept to the first satisfied customer, you can increase your output of saleable product while you reduce inventories and required working capital. CTM is a cohesive management strategy that integrates just in-time (JIT) production, computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), and total quality control (TQC). This book presents a fully detailed process for CTM implementation.
It includes:
From this succinct, highly focused book, you'll learn what CTM is, how to implement it, and how to manage it. Case studies, over 40 illustrations, and straightforward language make this a book you can use to enlighten your entire work force.

International Handbook of Practice-Based Performance Management
Manufacturer: Sage Publications, Inc ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1412940125 |
Book Description
Within the field of Evaluation, performance measurement is fast becoming a prevalent framework or set of tools to use in implementation analysis, formative and summative evaluations, and even needs assessments. Many of the measurement techniques that evaluators employ overlap with those of performance management, so evaluators are able to learn and use this framework quite readily. Recent approaches have acknowledged limitations in the implemented measurement systems and developed new practice-based strategies for effective ongoing measurement of program activities and use in guiding management. Significantly, these new strategies are being developed both in the United States and internationally and need to be brought together for collaborative learning and dissemination to practitioners and scholars.
