Introduction to Stage 3: Implementation and monitoring

Page 1/2

The third stage, implementation and monitoring, puts the plans from Stage 2 into action and, while doing so, ensures through monitoring that all necessary activities are carried out as scheduled and that the intended outcomes are achieved.

During programme implementation, it is important to monitor progress continuously so that managers can make changes to ensure that the short-term outcomes are met and the purposes and the long-term goal are achieved.

In Stage 2 a monitoring system has been planned and indicators and sources of verifying information defined. Now, in Stage 3, the system should be put into place so that the relevant information is collected, recorded and analysed for use by the CBR manager.
