MONITORING AND EVALUATION

OBJECTIVES

As it is highlighted in the introduction of the RFP, Council’s objective is to effectively and

efficiently provide public order, safety, security and nuisance abatement for improved

quality of life in the city.

Briefly, monitoring involves the routine process of data collection and measurement of

progress towards programme objectives and or goals while evaluation involves a process

that attempts to determine systematically and objectively as possible, the relevance,

effectiveness and impact of activities and projects in the light of objectives. In addition to the

terms and reference as well as duties mentioned, this serves to provide a guide for the

private security company in executing its duties in terms of the expectations. As monitoring

and evaluation is concerned, this would help the security company in improving the

efficiency and effectiveness of their work, by being able to identify problems and challenges

and their causes as well as suggest possible solutions to problems.

The monitoring and evaluation guide would be structured according to the following

categories which are first defined / explained;

Activities – refers to the actual duties or activities that are supposed to be carried out as

well as other matters related to carrying out these duties effectively.

Indicators – refers to set standards or ways as well as expectations that would indicate or

can show evidence that the activities / duties are carried out.

Monitoring Methodologies – refers to the methods or instruments as well as data sources

that would help verify the indicators.
