Evaluating pilot programs

Project type
Other reports

We evaluate pilot programs differently to other programs, despite sharing similar steps. Pilot evaluation focuses on:

  • understanding implementation
  • finding evidence of promise
  • testing feasibility
  • deciding whether to scale the program.

This guidance outlines focus areas, key questions and methods. There are step‑by‑step instructions for each stage. It sums up the resources needed and guides you to use findings.
