As per Joint Memorandum Circular No. 2015-1 or the National Evaluation Policy Framework (NEPF), all programs and projects implemented by all National Government Agencies (NGAs), State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), Government-Owned and/or Controlled Corporations (GOCCs), and Government Financial Institutions (GFIs) with budgetary support from the National Government through local and foreign funds, as well as public-private partnerships, are to be reviewed/evaluated at least once at the end of their program/project life cycle or as frequent as necessary.  

The Monitoring and Evaluation Division is mandated to lead the conduct of sector-wide impact evaluation including the conduct of mid-term and post-evaluation of all ongoing and completed projects, whether foreign-assisted or locally funded, in terms of achieving project goals, objectives, desired outcomes and benefits and drawing out lessons from program/project implementation.
