2. When your staff do not have the time to focus on the evaluation.

3. When your project is very complex and outcomes are less tangible and difficult to document.

4. When your funder requests a professional, external evaluation.

5. When there is a serious problem with your project, and you need a strong, objective voice to assess the situation, navigate conflict and provide practical solutions.

6. Having an experienced Project Evaluation Team can bring more credibility, accuracy, and perspective to your project’s evaluation process and findings.

7. External Project Evaluation Teams are often more disinterested and objective in their view of a program and its outcomes.

8. External Project Evaluation Teams have often “seen” an abundance of programs, and the resulting knowledge can be a substantial asset to the organization that engages their professional services.

9. External Project Evaluation Teams are less susceptible to the internal politics of organizations, have less of an economic ‘stake’ in the success or failure of a program, and therefore are better positioned to provide an unbiased eye with which to conduct a program evaluation.

10. An External Project Evaluation Team will likely produce a higher quality evaluation.
