Determinants of Performance of Monitoring and Evaluation systems for County Government Projects: A case of Makueni County.
Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) has progressively become a crucial component in project performance. The study determined the aspects that affect the smooth execution of monitoring and evaluation mechanisms in the county government projects. The theoretical concepts that enlightens the study are dynamic capabilities theory, the theory of change and the program theory of evaluation, which forms the basis of assessing the relationships between the role of management, human resources capacity, funding and stakeholder participation in ensuring successful M&E activities in Makueni County projects. The blueprint plan that the investigator followed was a descriptive design. In responding to the research quest, a sample of 245 persons clustered into two groups, one comprising of 200 project committee personnel and the other group of 45 county staff, were statistically enrolled as research subjects. The reliability and validity of the tools were established through a test-retest technique over a period of two weeks in a sample of 14 elected committee members from Machakos County as a pilot where a Cronbach coefficient alpha of 0.825 (82.5%) was realized hence the instrument was reliable. Study findings revealed an influence on performance of M&E by all variables at varied levels. The study the management should be at the forefront in providing advice and decision making in the M&E process. There should also be proper policies on allocation of adequate funds meant to facilitate the M&E process.
