The five stages

The five stages of creating an outcome framework

Creating an outcome framework is a cyclical process, which should ideally be reviewed annually. The five stages are:

1. Decide your overall approach
2. Create an outcomes triangle and logic model
3. Review the evidence
4. Select performance indicators
5. Finalise and use your framework

The step-by-step guide includes links to downloadable templates and examples that may help you and give you ideas. But don’t be constrained by them, you can use them as much or as little as you want. Focus on what matters in your local area and build an outcomes framework that works for you.
