  16. FSA and Service Effectiveness Demonstrating Service Efectiveness FSA

  17. Considerations in FSA • Existing FSA puts much emphasis on Service Monitoring. • Should be minimum and reasonable with reference to manpower available. • Flexible and open enough to encourage further service development, instead of restricting its evolvement. • Focus on several areas for setting priority.

  18. Service Effectiveness • Three foci – general user’s feedback, outcome of specific project / program, evolving service model and its evaluation. • Present stage: general user’s feedback. • Later stage: evolving service model and evaluation on effectiveness with respect to its stated objectives.

  19. Developing Outcome Indicators • In later stage, ongoing sharing on impacts of various project / programs will facilitate consensus on outcome measurements. • Still allow different ways / indicators to demonstrate service effectiveness.
