UKRI is committed to rigorous evaluation of our key programmes. The aim is to understand the impact of FLF; examine the implementation of the programme & support early explorations of the economic value of FLF. This will inform ongoing programme development, maximise the value of public funding & enable Treasury, BEIS & UKRI to demonstrate accountability for public funds. Audiences for the evaluation include UKRI, BEIS, government & the research and innovation communities of the UK and abroad. The evaluation should help all audiences to understand: whether the FLF scheme activities have been implemented as planned & whether the scheme delivered its intended aims and objectives; to what extent the programme achieved its planned impacts as outlined in the Theory of Change; for whom & in what circumstances did it achieve this;what factors in the context or operation of FLF supported or inhibited the emergence of impacts; whether the intervention is cost-effective & represents good value.
