Abstract

ICF was commissioned in February 2014 by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), the Managing Authority (MA) for the European Social Fund (ESF), to undertake the ex-ante evaluation of the 2014–2020 ESF programme for England.
The ex-ante evaluation aimed to ensure that the 2014–2020 Operational Programme (OP) meets the requirements of the ESF Regulations, and is fit for purpose in terms of implementation. In accordance with the guidance on the ex-ante evaluation of the European
Union (EU) Structural Funds the study was structured around five components:
• Component A. Programme strategy and contribution to Europe 2020 – reviewing the
Strategy and Priority Axes in terms of contribution to the Europe 2020 strategy, Country Specific Recommendations (CSRs) and national priorities; and overall coherence and consistency;
• Component B. Management – assessing the capacity to deliver the programme; the appropriateness of structures, roles and responsibilities; and efforts to reduce administrative burdens and promote sustainable development;
• Component C. Indicators, Monitoring and Evaluation – assessing the suitability and appropriateness of the indicators used, targets set and monitoring approaches proposed;
• Component D. Consistency of Financial Allocations – assessing the consistency of the allocations, their concentration and distribution by Priority Axes/Investment Priorities; and
• Component F. Equality Analysis – assessing the extent to which programme provision is accessible to those eligible for it, does not discriminate and promotes equality.
