This manual provides an overview of the Business Innovation Facility 2 (BIF2) monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system and guidance on its application. This manual explains how and what will be: (i) monitored for BIF2 interventions and the programme as a whole to determine whether they are on track to achieving their intended results; and (ii) measured to estimate the impact and determine the effectiveness and sustainability of interventions. The manual serves as a guide for programme implementation and management, and as a communication tool that allows BIF2 staff, DFID and other stakeholders to understand how the programme's objectives and targets will be measured.
BIF2 is a DFID funded programme that helps the development and uptake of inclusive business models by companies in developing countries.
