Evaluation: Product and Process
Analysis
• The evaluation component is two-fold:
1. (1) product evaluation - addresses results that can be attributed
to the project, as well as the extent to which the project has
satisfied its stated objectives
2. (2) process evaluation. - addresses how the project was
conducted, in terms of consistency with the stated plan of action
and the effectiveness of the various activities within the plan.
• Evaluations may be conducted by an internal staff member, an
evaluation firm or both.

Evaluation: Product and Process
Analysis
• Evaluation designs may start at the beginning, middle, or end
of a project, but the applicant should specify a start-up time.
It is desirable and advisable to submit an evaluation design at
the start of a project for two reasons:
1. Convincing evaluations require the collection of appropriate
baseline data before and during program operations; and
2. If the evaluation design cannot be prepared at the outset then
a critical review of the program design may be advisable.

Budget Development and
Requirements
The estimated expenses in the budget should build upon the
justifications given in the narrative section of the proposal.

The budget should be as concrete and specific as possible in

its estimates. Every effort should be made to be realistic, to
estimate costs accurately, and not to underestimate staff time.
The budget format should be as clear as possible. It should
begin with a Budget Summary, which, like the Proposal
Summary, is written after the entire budget has been
prepared.
