Requirements of the Summative Assessment
The Project Summative Assessment is about understanding the experience of implementing the ERDF project, the difference the project has made, whether it has provided value for money, and the lessons which can be learnt from the experience. The SA will need to assess evidence and provide insight in the following areas:

• Achievement of Outputs Against Targets – The extent to which the ERDF output targets as specified in the contract have been attained, and any reasons for under or over performance
• Achievement of Outcomes – The extent to which the ‘softer’ outcomes have been achieved
• Quality of Delivery – The rating that supported enterprises give for the delivery.
• Effectiveness of Delivery – The extent to which applicants feel that the support provided to them has helped them to feel better positioned to grow their enterprise
• Impact of Delivery – The extent to which the enterprises supported have grown their business and sustainability post-support.
• Relevance and consistency –  The continued relevance and consistency of the project, in light of any changes in policy or economic circumstances during its delivery period.
• Validity of the Logic Model – The extent to which the project rationale and activity delivered the outputs, impacts and outcomes as described in the original Logic Model.  
• Learning for the Future – A summary of learning (positive and negative) driven by feedback from delivery staff, wider stakeholders and enterprises receiving support about the project. 
• Overall Performance in Achieving the Project Aims – A summary of the overall performance of the project considering all of the above, including an analysis of value for money and return on investment in light of its intended and unintended outcomes and impacts.
• Using and disseminating the findings – The full summative assessment should be available to the The Trampery team. The Summary Findings Template should also be freely available.
