Principles for setting indicators for EIP programme Sample Clauses

Principles for setting indicators for EIP programme. The analysis above indicates the need for the adoption of a more coherent approach in defining the set of indicators for monitoring and reporting on the progress of the programme. It suggests that in many cases the focus of the selected indicators is much more on the management and delivery of each planned measure and less on assessing the success of the measure and its contribution towards the EIP’s overall objectives.

In any event, it is proposed to restate some of the implicit principles of the current system, making reference to the well- established framework for conducting evaluations, which it is believed, should be at the heart of the whole exercise. These principles may be expressed as follows: • The central aim of the system of EIP performance indicators should be to contribute to an assessment of the extent to which the measures and actions put in place under the EIP are achieving the specific objectives of the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme and the global objectives of the policy of the European Union from which these objectives are derived. • In contributing to this assessment the indicators should conform to the standard framework established by the European Commission for the evaluati...
