This framework outlines the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) vision to deliver effective, innovative, and impactful monitoring and evaluation outputs that set the foundation for an ever-improving evidence base for decision-making.

To achieve this vision, there are 6 underpinning core aims:

  1. To establish a comprehensive, appropriate, and proportionate monitoring and evaluation coverage.

  2. To firmly embed monitoring and evaluation into governance processes.

  3. To build capacity and capability in analytical, project delivery and policy professions.

  4. To facilitate a positive learning culture.

  5. To maintain independent and transparent quality assurance of findings.

  6. To encourage the exploration of new and innovative monitoring and evaluation approaches.

This is DESNZ’s first monitoring and evaluation framework. It sets out what monitoring and evaluation look like in the department, the core standards for monitoring and evaluation, and what activities will underpin the achievement of our aims and overarching vision.
