Are government evaluation systems usable? Five OECD signals
Evaluation systems are useful but uneven across government.
Clear institutional mandates are needed so evaluations are conducted and used systematically across government.
On quality, the OECD says 79% have adopted central evaluation guidelines, but that passage does not prove those guidelines specifically cover design or requirements.
Evaluations should feed practical decisions, with results embedded in decision-making processes and presented in user-friendly ways.
Governments need accessible, interoperable data and stronger skills, including training, talent retention, and upskilling senior officials.
