11. Planning:-
The first step is to understand why we are
evaluating aspects of our service and what are
we trying to achieve.
1. Most times we will be looking to develop and
understanding of our service from perspectives
of students and their supporters using our one-
stop-shop contact centre and web presence.
2. This should result in actions that improve our
service delivery and thus customer experience.
3. You may also undertake evaluation to prove a
hypothesis or point.
4. For some the motivation is to improve
efficiency which is usually a byword for cost
savings.
12. Collecting information
Some of the information we need for analysis
may be readily available; already captured as
a by-product of other activities. However, we
may have to build new mechanisms to collect
the data.
Analyzing information
If we have planned, design and collected the
data effectively, analysis should flow easily
from the discussions that follow. Effective
findings, conclusions and recommendations
should include both quantitative and
qualitative data and common sense reporting
to stakeholders.
13. Taking action
We then go about implementing
changes arising from the analysis -
‘closing the loop’ by taking action and
sharing those actions with stakeholders
in the service.
This process we have applied to the
various evaluation exercises for
different stakeholders in the service.
